Girls always follow what guys like, so that they can get their attention.
Once they notice that dudes play Overwatch now, they will switch as well.
>>
>>341843935
Because it's harder for their boyfriends to carry them.
>>
Hearthstone is turn based and all girls in League are just botlane Soraka garbage.

Overmeme, even casualized, is still too hard for them.
>>
They're still moching off the fanbase they aquired from playing LoL.
>>
>>341843935
Because it takes actual skill to play. Even if it's an incredibly small amount of skill.

With LoL you can just click on the screen randomly and win.

>>341843935
Too much skill involved.
>>

Because girls don't like FPS.
Their reaction time is slower, guns don't interest them, and having widowmakers fine booty waved in their face is threatening.

I know a couple girls that play it, but mostly those are self sufficient girls that have their own taste.
On early 20s, that's the minority, give it a while, the more guys get into it it will get more and more girls, they'll follow the guys.

League and hearthstone are very 2D based games, you click things in a flat plane and things happen, they're also slower paced (one being fucking turn based).

Women's brains aren't evolved enough to compete in games rendered in 3D spaces with vertical and horizontal aiming, yes, not even a slow as shit casual version of unreal tournament with pres to win abilities added.

Girls are bad at FPS.

Prepare for posts saying you are wrong.

But you are right.

Oh god the overememe skill meme.

Even Splatoon takes more skill than Overwatch. INB4 genji mains post a seagull video.

Anyways there are plenty of girls on Overshill but I don't know why it matters to you guys, does hearing a girl voice on the chat make you want to play more? Is Overwatch really so boring that you need girls to keep interest?

This is actually the correct answer.

"Research has shown that men and women differ in a variety of ways primarily due to the differences of how they utilize their brains. According to an anthropology article from the Columbia University website, men are more proficient than women at hand-eye coordination because of their aptitude in spatial coordination."

Just look at the average Twitch streamers and compare them to the good ones, like Roflgator and that Taiwanese guy.
Most of them are embarassingly bad and can't land a single good shot. Really painful when they play classes like Genji/Tracer and just die ten times in a row.

It has some sort of skill level requirement to play. Not a high or even medium one, but you need to put in a modicum effort. I imagine Overwatch still has way more female players then Team Fortress 2, for example.
