Candy Crush, Tetris, Farmville, Angry Birds, etc. etc. etc. Notice none of these games has a "main character" and they are puzzle/building type games. I think boys/men really gravitate to this concept, women just don't. |
I think this is maybe an inaccurate conclusion you made regarding women not liking character-driven games. I think women just tend not to enjoy the violence in core games as much, so they gravitate towards those other genres that don't involve shooting and killing things in bloody fashion. I do think women enjoy story-driven games, though. RPG's, I believe, have a higher percentage of women players compared to other core games, but I don't have the actual data to say for sure. It sure seems like it, though, from the number of players of Pokemon and Final Fantasy who are women, and I think there are a lot of female fans of BioWare games. Also, women like reading books which obviously is all about story.
