    So, to participate in modern gaming, women should play games from 40 years ago?

      Or just single player games in general. If Super Mario is fine (main “story” being that a princess gets abducted by a male villain and rescued by a man), there really aren’t that many games that are significantly worse.

        So, again, to participate in modern gaming, women should play only single-player games. Like, to avoid men?

          Multiplayer with randos is to be avoided in general IMO.
