Do you play cozy games only?

This subreddit amazes me with the diversity of the playerbase. It didn't cross my mind that people over 40 would be enjoying pixel farming, then again i see somebodys grandma plowing that pixel! It's such a safe space for everyone, every gender, age, job, life, species,, even different game preferences (i see pvp, pve, strategy fans)

This is also one of the most evenly split cozy game male/female ratio, at 60% f. I am wondering how many of you ladies are especially PVPer?

First of all, why? (Lol i'm a pvp-hating girl) are you playing professionally or casually? How often do you switch between stardew and pvp and do you play to relax or for content?

And for the important question, for the hostile environment some pvp are, how do you keep confident and defend yourself as a woman?

I'm asking for a master's research in women's space in gaming. Your opinion as both a cozy and pvp girly would be invaluable to me 🧡
