Apparently a lot of ladies play this game. Do you think this is true?

Female player here also, tho I think people just assume I'm a guy since I play male characters + my profile isn't at all 'girlish'
I just see people as their characters.

I have no idea honestly. I have messages turned off. So I never get into people's genders. I will say that based on the forums, there seem to be a fair number of lady gamers. Also this game seems to have a large gay community as well. I noticed there seemed to be a large gay community when I played F13 as well. I wonder if horror is just really popular within that community.

Actually no that does not mean anything at all. Don’t come with me with that “logic”. I have seen a lot of very famous streamers that have developed streaming careers and I’m sure how they presented themselves played a substantial role in their success. As a whole most careers favor better looking people, don’t deny the facts.

That sounds pretty sexist

You obviously don’t know what sexism is

I think the ratio leans more towards males but maybe not by much. That's the feeling I get when I bother to check player profiles. This game is pretty casual so I wouldn't be surprised if it's 55:45 or even tighter. Games that are more competitive seem to have a higher male ratio, like Quake, Street Fighter, Starcraft or racing sims. Those are like 90:10, if that. Hahaha. That's been my experience anyway.

The Merriam-Webster definition of sexism reads;
1 : prejudice or discrimination based on sex
especially : discrimination against women
2 : behavior, conditions, or attitudes that foster stereotypes of social roles based on sex
The comment says: "I wonder how many of those ladies are actually good looking. Not trying to be a smartass. I also know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But I am curious"
The comment fits under both of these definitions. Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on experience or actual reason. The part of the comment that says: "I wonder how many of those ladies are actually good looking" implies an assumption that most gamer girls aren't pretty or pretend that they're pretty when they're actually not. That opinion is based on neither fact nor experience, and so it is by definition prejudiced.
The second definition is also true for this comment, as no man on the internet would wonder if the guys they're playing with online are actually attractive in real life, emphasis on the word actually. The attitude expressed towards women on the internet in this comment is exactly what the definition states, fostering stereotypes of social roles based on sex. It expects women to act or present themselves in a certain way when in reality a lot of women online do not.

I thought the vibrations from the generator would make them happy.
Hmm.
I think we're all girls until it's proven we're a G.I.R.L. (Guy in real life for those not versed in meme lingo.)

My wife doesn't play DbD, but she'll wreck face in Overwatch lol
She wants me to play with her, but she's a dirty console player so... no way. #pcmasterrace
Plus, I suck at shooters. She'd be yelling at me the entire time for being bad.

Nice, miss what I said entirely and get defensive after what, 3 or 4 days?
Theres plenty of streamers and celebrities that arent "beautiful human specimens".
Really just proving my point. I never said you had to look good or that only good looking people can do it, just that you very bluntly showed us how much you value looks over any substance. And you prove it with every shallow statement you make.
Thanks for the easier rebuttal though! Maybe dont take a week to respond next time.

From my own experience there seems to be more women on this game than others I have played.
