How much vidya do you have to play to be called a gamer? I only play a couple of hours a time before I get bored.
I imagine gamers to have poor hygiene. They eat chips and mountain dew as meals. They sleep during the day. They spend hours min/maxing their characters. They over react with rage when they lose.
I think these types should be sent to gulags

playing facebook games for 5 minutes a day makes you a gamer

Anyone who has to ask isnt a gamer. You sound like those poser gamer girls.

>over 50% of gamers are women
Apparently 10 minutes a day of candy crush.

On a serious note, I'd say at least 20 hours a week and 30 hours if you're a NEET.

If you don't feel organically part of a hobby without having to ask, you are a dabbler.
>>
I play games on a Xbox One and PC gamers don't consider me a real gamer

>>25150115
If it was time well spent you would not have uninstalled

I think its silly to tie a hobby to your identity. But if a majority of your time is spent playing games, I guess you coukd be considered one.
>>
>>25150220
i mean it was well spent because it finally pushed me over the edge and made me give it up.

If you gulag me, it will have been worth it.

My definition, now that gaming is so universal, is that a gamer is somebody who seriously plays a competitive game with a tournament and ranking structure of some sort.

Everybody else is a casual, but there's nothing wrong with being one.

>tfw can't play games for more than 20 mins now

Where did it all go so wrong
