You recaped it wrong. It goes like this:

Me: gaming is targeted for kids also adults "don't" get into gaming as adults. <-- fixed

You: article "adult women are the largest demographic in gaming" also many hardcore gamers get into gaming as adults

FYI, you should develop argumentation skills, not throw around "your own experiences" argument cuz that argument means jack squat. What is ironic, though, is that all your discussion is based on "I know plenty people who got into gaming as adults". Also, for f*ck sake, don't take everything you ear literallly, speciallly after your told it's an exageration...

Problem with your recap is - I NEVER SAID THAT (even though it's true).  Feel free to go back and actually read.  Someone else posted the 'women are the largest demographic in gaming' article.  You immediately started moving the goal posts to demographics of mobile gamers vs console gamers - none of which was ever mentioned in your original post, none of which anyone is arguing about (except you), and none of which actually refutes women (or adults) being the largest demographic in gaming (demographic does not mean most profitable, important, core, target or any other meaning you want to attach to it / gaming does not mean consoles).  You are doing your best to construct baseless arguments out of thin air.  

Since you seem to have a poor memory:

When do people face the fact that gaming is not for adults.

Hmm. 

http://www.dailydot.com/geek/adult-women-largest-gaming-demographic/

You use a link about a study which in the link says adult women is the largest demographic in gaming? Really?

I haven't read that but I bet it is talking about mobile/casual games...    (SO WHAT?)

*reads article*

Yeaaaah, those aren't exactly the same demographic as the ones who buys consoles... (WHO SAID IT WAS?)

Btw there are many adult gamers nowadays, but even those started of as  gamers when they were kids. About zero to none adult gamers begun gaming when already adults and married.

I came along and merely pointed out that "I happen to know plenty of adults that got into gaming after they were already adults and married..."  That is all.  It's not an argument.  It's not meant to be an argument.  What in that factual statement are you trying to force an argue with me about exactly?  


This is the last time I will respond to you because it's clear that you are beyond reason.  Conversing with you has been a painful lesson in futility and patience.  Best of luck in the future.  May our paths never cross again.
