Bigotry, armchair speculation and prejudice

It's obvious to everyone that's reading that you hold this view yourself.

No, it isn't. And no, he doesn't. I understood this before his clarifications. I also agree that is the popular conception of a WoW player. Hell, this is the conversation I have every single time I mention I'm a gamer to a non-gamer.

Phisto: 'Yeah, I'm a gamer.'

Person: 'Oh, so like do you play World of Warcraft or whatever?'

Phisto: 'No, I play stuff like Mass Effect, Skyrim, Civ, and a bunch of shooters.'

Person: *strange, confused look, as if I am speaking another language*

I'm not sure you understand how the wider world generally sees gamers.
