I’m just saying that if you count anyone who has ever played Candy Crush, your stats aren’t going to be particularly meaningful, and you’ll end up with a number like “three billion”.
If the same number was cited for beer drinking, I’d be saying “sure, if you count anyone who’s ever had a Budweiser”, and it would be a valid criticism.
- rsynnott 6y agoThis would appear to be people who currently play games.
- prophesi 6y agoI get what you're saying. It would be interesting to see the statistics on how many people play non-casual videogames. And how many people drink craft beer. Though with videogames, it's still a meaningful statistic to include "casuals" considering it used to be taboo to play videogames at all as an adult.

I wouldn't class the Candy Crush player as even a casual gamer.
- prophesi 6y agoThis is just silly. Candy Crush is a videogame, therefore its players are gamers. Hijack a different word to describe casual vs "serious" gamers.
