Pretty much this.  Invalid and fake do not mean the same thing.


I meant just because someone else games differently than you doesn't mean they can't be "Gamers."  Candy crush is a game.

Yeah, the problem is the vast majority of those folks, don't actually contribute to the industry (freemium).  And many many of those people don't consider themselves 'gamers' because they play a time wasting app on a phone.  Someone else raised a good question, about those who self-identify as gamer's vs those who just play a random game here and there.

It's not necessarily that someone else games differently than me, it's do those people consider themselves gamers?  Either way though, I don't 'really' care, I can just see the point being made that there's a very real difference between how the two groups contribute to the industry.
