I've just realized women do, for the most part, ignore games unless they have a bright, colorful and easy on the eyes art style.

If they play a shooter, they'll choose Overwatch before Unreal.
If they play a MOBA, they'll choose LoL before HoN.
If they play TBT, they'll choose Fire Emblem before X-COM/XCOM.
If the play a RPG, they'll choose Persona before Deus Ex.
If they play a fighting game, they'll choose Smash Bros before Mortal Kombal.

You may say those bright games are more popular overall, and it's usually true, but even then the female population percentage seems to be much lower in darker games. Unfortunately, I don't have any data to back it up, but my personal experience.

Why is this?

ok.
I never completed Viva Pinata and want to play it again, does it still hold up or is it nostalgia?

Its actually a really fun game. Check it out again if you like Animal Crossing or relaxing games.

Women must have good taste then.

viva pinata is the best game in the management simulator genre prove me wrong

You picked a bad image, OP, because Viva Pinata is real fucking good anyway
>>
>>387105593
Just play Trouble in Paradise if you can, it's essentially the same game but with an expansion pack.

Also this series deserves another game and Leafos deserves more lewds.

I'm male and do the same, realistic looking games give me flashbacks to all the bland mid to late 00s military shooters we had

I prefer cartoon or stylised graphics these days

If playing on normal invest in decoy pinatas or do the Professor Pester fence glitch cause the cutlass won't keep him out anymore.

Note that the fence glitch can be annoying because he'll just sit out your garden and make soft "ooh, ooah" noises. Though in one garden I had he was silent, and in another he slowly shifted back out of the fucking map over gametime. I dunno.

Most of them are relative newcomers to video games (compared to 20-something neckbeards) and girls are acculturated to like colorful shit from a young age

Fuck off Viva Pinata is one of Rare's best games ever.

Easily some of the most fun I had on xbox 360.

Had night where I played with 2 friends tripping on acid and they cried when I smashed one of the pinata open with a shovel.

Good stuff would experience again.

The original came out on PC? Oh shit, I gotta pirate this.

>>387105495
Because darker tones are ugly and boring. It's unaesthetic. Unless it's done in a romantic and vintage kind of way.

Also Mortal Kombat > Smash Bros but that's just me
>>
I have a GF that plays a lot of vidya but exclusively weeaboo shit and colorful indies.
She says anything that's slightly washed out and/or realistic in design is immediately ugly and not worth her time.

I never understood this at all.

>>387105495
Your comparisons are mostly if not entirely awful
>If they play a shooter, they'll choose Overwatch before Unreal.
I've never played Unreal but I also never understood the hype about overwatch so I won't argue this point
>If they play a MOBA, they'll choose LoL before HoN.
Doesn't LoL have the shallowest learning curve of mainstream MOBAs? Seems like a good place to start, regardless of other MOBAs color pallets. Again, haven't played HoN but I don't think it has the same reputation either.
>If they play TBT, they'll choose Fire Emblem before X-COM/XCOM.
These are wildly different TBT, Fire Emblem is a lot less complex than XCOM while still maintaining depth, and the type of combat is totally different. Also, are you saying Fire Emblem is a bad series? I can't speak for the last two 3DS titles but Fire Emblem is an excellent series and is plenty challenging. It sort of seems like you just think this one is better because guns
>If the play a RPG, they'll choose Persona before Deus Ex.
I've never played Persona but how do these games even compare? Seems like another "guns are more manly" argument
>If they play a fighting game, they'll choose Smash Bros before Mortal Kombal.
Why would you compare Smash to a traditional fighter? There is so much more going on than flashy colors VS dark colors even at face value that this is just silly

I'm pretty sure you don't actually know any women
>>
I'm a grill and art direction matters a lot to me in a game. Colorful, cartoony games like Viva Pinata are cute and fun to look at, but I prefer Bloodborne's aesthetic, though the two couldn't be more different. Girls preferring the cartoony games is probably just because they appeal to pretty much everybody and not that many girls play games in the first place.
>>
>women like bright, colorful things
No shit, why do you think most little girls would rather watch MLP over Batman?

Women just plays what seems more easy to pick up and more colourful, have you seen the amount of girls that main "Jinx" in league just because she is flat?
>>
There have been two girls I met in my life whom I felt a deep connection with right at the start.

Both of them had gaming taste that revovled around very mathemtical games. One of them only played sim-city like games, she enjoyed managing virtual finance. Another only played Yugioh had national level tournament skill. She was one of the top 5 highest ranked Duel-net players back when she used it. She really liked the probability parts of the game, trying to guesstimate what could be in the opponents hand based on what cards they had already exhausted and using cards that manipulated monster levels or that one archtype that requires you to empty your hand as fast as possible.

Anyone else play vidya like a woman?

Aesthetics are very important to me and I don't really play competitive or complicated games
