In the GTA community, such players are dubbed immature because the purpose of the game is to simulate real-life, not ruin it.Gucci@moncIeryearcan't forget the ones who play GTA jus to run over pedestrians6:36 AM · Feb 6, 20227504296can't forget the ones who play GTA jus to run over pedestriansThe tweets naturally enraged many people.

Y'all gotta do better11:33 AM · Feb 6, 202245911@DoNotCream @moncIeryear Everytime I hop on warzone and they ask if I got a mic I just don't say shit cuz they so outta pocket and I just get harassed. Y'all gotta do betterThis also explains why it is harder for female streamers to get into gaming and esports.Many Twitter users mentioned how women entering the world of gaming is a big win for the industry altogether. Female players have started representing themselves in esports. However, in general, the industry is still dominated by men.All in all, generalizations of any sort, and especially like the one mentioned above, are always prone to backlash.At the end of the day, gamers, content creators, streamers, esports athletes, and console owners should be proud of their role in the community regardless of gender. Amidst all the competition and differences, mutual respect should be prioritized the most by everyone.
