You realize that very few men play games like stalker and cataclysm too right?

There's nothing in the y chromosome that makes you predisposed towards certain video games. Most girls aren't exposed to vidya, and the ones that are are exposed to casual shit. Most guys don't go past casual shit either, but there's a lot more guys playing video games as a whole which means there's a much bigger percentage of them that move on towards better titles.

Video gaming is a completely, ten hundred percent gender neutral hobby. You just need hands and a working brain to play them, nothing separates the sexes here which both tumblr feminist retards and /v/ both fail to understand.

Any game that is primarily competitive.

That's not a contradiction. Video gaming does not take gender into account with regards to your ability to play a game. If you go to gamestop or open steam and try to buy a game, you are not restricted based on your gender. Your ability and capacity is not restricted based on your gender. A man does not have a significant and clear biological advantage over a woman in playing or completing any video game. More guys playing games does not mean gaming is rigged against women. It's equal. If 75% of video game players were women and only 25% men, and all other factors were still the same, video gaming as a hobby would still be just as gender neutral as it is.

We're saying women as a whole, like more than 1%. A few outliers doesn't count.
Even if .01% of people in the entire world play DF, .01% of that .01% is women.
This is reflected in analytics.
I have a gaming channel on YouTube and literally less than one percent (.8%) of the viewage comes from women.

Yes he does, actually.
Males are a lot more prone to competition than women are, due to evolution, and videogames provide just that.

There are as many smart men as there are smart women, however the majority of players are still male. You keep acknowledging that, but also keep ignoring why that is.

So, why is it? Why are there more males playing videogames than there are females?

How many north koreans play dwarf fortress?
How many 80 year olds play dwarf fortress?
How many lawyers or police officers or zookeepers play dwarf fortress?

Young, 20 something western men with a lifelong enthusiasm for video gaming are the most likely to be exposed to dwarf fortress or other rich, niche games. They're more likely to have heard of it, to read about it, learn about it, and play it. That does not mean that women can't play it or understand it, it just means they're a lot more likely to have never heard of it.

>sexual dimorphism stops at the neck up
I never said this. There are absolutely differences in the structure of brains in men and women. That doesn't change that there is no clear, significant, demonstrable advantage men have over women with regards to video games.

Here is the point I'm making for people who can't get it.

The op said "games women can't appreciate" with a picture of Eye divine cybermancy. It's not that women don't appreciate it, it's not like tons of women have played the game and just went "huh I don't understand", it's that very few women have even heard of it. There are female scientists, engineers, doctors, authors, lawyers, world leaders etc. so obviously women are capable of understanding and appreciating complex things.

Works as intended. You have amnesia, not the convenient whoops I forgot my backstory so insert your own amnesia. The a shitload of stuff went down, you somehow survived and repressed it all kind of amnesia.

Everything is suppose to feel confusing and strange, the fun of the game comes from trying to figure out what's happening, and why you can't remember anything.

But the game never tells you any of that and just starts you in a very dark cave surrounded by dead dudes you don't recognize and tells you to use WSAD to move. Don't really blame you for refunding it.

It's the kind of game that tends to take multiple attempts to get into before it clicks. I for one had it for a couple years & it wasn't until I reinstalled it for the third time that I finally got it.

Of course, you have to actually WANT to enjoy it, & reinstall it only when you feel like giving it another shot.

Enemies will still be a threat, since you won't have like insane defense or health, especially doos ecks and gunships. Even packs of monsters will be a threat. And if you want a bigger challenge, you can always adjust the enemy spawn in the menu for more enemies, harder enemies, reduction in spawn time, give them better aim, and better detection,

Yea but he does not show up into you get out of the cave. And even then, its easy to write the game off as "Just another shitty indy title" since there is nothing to tell you something deeper is going on.

You don't know about the factions or who wears what armor, so they just look like a bunch of generic dead guys for you to loot. Even though it's a critical part of the story, you would never guess that on your first play through.

That's not how it works, though. The games you get exposed to are casual games. Some people go further to explore what else is there, others don't. You may get friends that have similar interests to you, or you don't. You join communities, if you care enough about video games to want different stuff. We live in the age of the internet, this shit isn't niche, you can find it with one fucking google search. Women mostly just don't go looking for it and the ones that do just enjoy the games and don't draw attention to their gender.

>there is no clear, significant, demonstrable advantage men have over women with regards to video games
There is no good data, neither proving or disproving this. Doesn't change that all competitive games are completely dominated by men.

>it's not like tons of women have played the game and just went "huh I don't understand"
No, that's the majority of men. Women don't play it, because it doesn't appeal to them as a demographic. It's a shooter with cold, rough aesthetics.

It has nothing to do with elitism. It's pretty obvious what kind of a game it is from the first half an hour you spend playing it. If it doesn't appeal to you - leave it be and move on.

It has a really deep story but will only tell you about it from items and spells. If you like the way darksouls does storytelling you will like E.Y.E.

I am from ex-USSR country and i haven't played any Stalker after Clear Sky.

The fact your shitty game continues to offend my vision is reason enough to hate it. Stop making these threads.

I'm Russian and I think it's an overrated FPS with neat atmosphere and some bad mechanics.

Truly only someone as dumb as a slav could dislike STALKER.

It's incredibly cheap for a shooter of its quality.
It uses Source engine and it loads huge maps that would usually crash the engine.
It has a gun with full automatic and fuller automatic as firing modes.
It's crazy and a mess almost in all aspects.
Cool concept about technology and spirituality.
The memes.
The co-op days when a lot of people on /v/ tried it.
