    There are no capital-G Gamers following Valorant.

    Remember that video games are now the largest media industry in the world. Remember that gamergate happened almost 10 years ago now, and that Valorant is only 3 years old.

    The kids playing and watching Valorant probably don’t even know enough about the controversy to make the connection. They just know an asshole when they see one.

    Honestly I don’t even think capital-G Gamers play games anymore. It’s an aging demographic that is too bitter and stupid to keep up.
