You're making it sound like "in real life" you'd put people in their place because only you know everything, no one can touch you in "real life" you'd just body these "children". Now online, it's difficult to see your "intellectual superiority", but in real life no one can stop you.
Saying I won a debate is hardly 'I would do X to you in real life'. You're putting words in my mouth, which is unsurprising.
Then why are you so shit at a fighting game?
@Nickolaidas ?
I honestly have no idea. I mean, back when I wanted to unlock that Noob mask in KL in MK11 (and was forced to play online for it - before they made it available temporarily in the Krypt), I managed to get the rank needed (I think it's the third worst?), but considering it was in the levels where you wouldn't lose XP when you lose a match, I don't know if it means something.
When you have more knowledge about something, your opinion holds more weight amongst your peers.
I agree. Which is why I do not speak about the gameplay aspects of the game. So what exactly is the disagreement here?
I talk about genderswaps, character designs and lore.
And some of the comebacks I hear is about game skill, which is a completely different topic.
Attempting to divert the conversation to a completely irrelevant topic in order to give the pretense of expertise does not magically make one the winner of the argument.
I see your wall of text trying to declare for some reason that women aren't that interested in games and I present the fact that 52% of Switch owners are female
New data provided by Circana reveals that 52 percent of Switch consoles are female owned in the United States.

Let me guess...Mario games aren't game either
Your arguments revolves around drawing arbitrary lines and confirmation bias. Of course there's no beating this argument, I'm subscribed to reality and you're in a fantasy world where the things you believe are true.
Yes, you post a survey which shows that 50% of Switch owners are girls. That's great. And I posted a Capcom survey which showed that 80% of their audience are men. So apparently, there is something dubious about the surveys. We can analyze it in a multitude of ways, and each of us will present it as proof of their case. We can also remember how amazing the Wii did back when it came out and how many consoles it sold, and to how many people - the young, the old, the male, the female. I mean, if that doesn't prove that old women play as many video games as young boys, what will?
OR ... we can look back and see that those people bought a Wii and Wii Sports and never again touched the damn thing, and we can realize that there is a difference between a gamer and between a person who buys 'the hottest thing right now'. A cousin of mine (male) is not a gamer - never was. Yet he bought a PSX back in the 90s because everyone and their dog had a PSX. He bought two games for it, and in one week it was gathering dust. Still counts as a PSX sale. Still counts as +1 Sony hardware units sold. Same with the Switch.
These. People. Are. Not. Gamers.
Again, in order to make myself clear, I am not saying that no women play video games, I am not saying that there aren't hardcore women gamers. All I am saying is that it's not the same percentage with men. I have had classmates, friends, relatives, co-workers of the opposite sex, and honestly the ratio of them being gamers was 1 out of 10. So yeah, perhaps I am personally biased due to real-life experience, but I'll take that over someone in the internet claiming otherwise.
But if I'm wrong, I'm wrong. C'est la vie.
