I'm sure a few females will play, run into a some once in a while in Gears of War and quite a bit in Call of Duty 3. Not sure how they make the game more fun, most of the time I mistake them for little kids, which are normally irritating (the little kids, not the females).

Well if you think about it why would girls want to play games when they can be out with friends or going to parties. The girls that do play are either really bored,sick or not that attractive. Im not generalizing but well its kinda true. There are a few cases but really I do make sense if you think about it.

Plenty of girls like videogames, they just tend to have different preferences in what they find interesting. And traditionally the industry has focused heavily on the male demographic.

There's lots of studies you can find with various statistics, but in general there's a lot of female gamers, but they tend to prefer the types of games that aren't competitively-oriented.

Yeah I know, I was just saying tho that the girls that do like our sort of games are like very little I dunno if its like biological or something but females often tend to dislike fast paced and complicated games while males seem to get more exited the more complicated a game is. I know I tried to make my gf play Civ 3 once she gave up after 10 min lol

My guess is that Huxley isn't going to attract a lot of female gamers, just look at the current FPS-situation today. It's approx 98-99% male gamers into the FPS-scene. On the other hand, this game has an added dimension to it, with this game beeing an MMO aswell. Time will tell, but don't count on to many girls on the servers to begin with.

FPS games don't usually attract too many females. No reason to expect that to change.

On the other hand, cooperative and MMO games do, and Huxley will have both of those elements. So we may see a bit higher female demographic playing, although it probably won't be a huge difference.

They should do the same as they do with clubs have like ladies night where females get like a discount on the monthly payment or something while guys still have the same hehehe. But I know what your all gonna say that guys will just lie about their gender yeah I know but I just had to say it cuz it was kinda funny. Orrrrr guys get incentive on recruiting female players hehe like you get 2 months free or something haha well really would you rather chat with a hot chick who is interested in everything you have to teach her or a guy who trash talks you the second you dont know something about the game hehe.

Hate to say it, but how many people would sign up as a "female" player to get those perks. I know I would :P

[Rollin60]

Well they could like give female characters really wimpy weapons so guys would like have to much pride to use them like guns with Care Bear Keychains on it and like Armor with like Flowers and pink colors on it hahahaha

[connnnn]

The question is, why would having more specifically-female players benefit Webzen in the first place?

Reeling in 1 more female player vs 1 more male doesn't make any difference business-wise.

[Rollin60]

Well more girls means guys telling their friends "Yo man you should play Huxley there are a lot of hotties there" know what I mean? Sex factor is a very good motivator in things I mean in advertising for example guys often pay more attention to commercials with models in it rather than just like the product. And I just like the ladies

I'm sure a few females will play, run into a some once in a while in Gears of War and quite a bit in Call of Duty 3.

In GoW I've got around 6,000 kills and I've probably seen 3 females. Thats not much at all.

They already have the perk of a thinner character model in most games.

Girl gamers are fun to talk to lol

Most female PC gamers don't make a big deal out of being female, and in fact many try to hide it from "the public". In part it's because there's many who do make a big deal about themselves and look like e-attention whores because of it (and because many of them are ; ).

Yeah, I'm sure I've ran into more girl gamers in Gears than I realize, but the ones I do end up getting sexually harassed most of the time...so I don't blame them for hiding their identity.

Chicks get to emotional over games.
It's annoying to own a girl when she is having her period.
