How fragmented do you think the gaming community is? What I mean is gamers sticking to a certain genre of game rather than experimenting into more niche genres. And why would anyone stick to purely one genre strictly without any branching? |

For the most part I venture out and will eventually play a different genre. I love The Sims Series on PC the best, and it is unclear for the most part what genre is the sims PC series's qualify as?. From what I hear, but could be wrong,Most people in the gaming communities seem to stick to RPG games. I mean you can't go much more extreme genre than the sims people simulator series, ::) |

I'm not sure how to answer that question. I have noticed that the younger generation of gamers that have grown up with Xbox and been weaned on the FPS genre tend to stick to it and rarely play anything else (my nephew sticks to Overwatch, Fortnite and Call of Duty although he likes to play Madden sometimes). As for me I play some FPS but mostly for single player campaigns. I mainly stick to Adveture, RPGs and platformers (incidentally, those are the genres I grew up on, lol) |

I know that most collectors seem to be fairly focused on what they collect, meaning they tend to stick to no more than a handful of consoles they really want to amass games for. I'm pretty sure the reason for this has to do with how inaccessible retro game collecting has become in terms of price and availability. I see far less catch all collectors that I used to 5 or 6 years ago. So in that sense, yes, I do feel like the gaming community is fairly fragmented. |
