  @Sir_Dammed The big issue is how the demographics of games like Candy Crush is used to torture statistics and give companies misleading data. There is no amount of gay race feminism that will get Candy Crush moms to play Call of Duty.

  @GrageDustin Genuinely curious to hear how this is the result of a staffing problem? Do we want an officer on every street corner playing candy crush most of the time? We do need more staffing for other purposes but IMO if the force was at full capacity it's not going to stop these incidents.

  @JessicaHamel19 @MeghanEMurphy it’s better to spend 18 hours a day yelling at internet people then playing a game that has puzzles and requires problem solving. They are just jealous they suck at 99% of games besides Candy Crush

  @kanon06 And it shouldn't count them at all. There's a HUGE problem as a game company if you read this bs study and think your game should appeal to both the sweaty COD gamer blasting 12 hrs a day and Brenda from accounting who plays candy crush at lunchtime. Its a worthless study.

  @TatataToddC @charlieINTEL @TheVerge unfortunately CoD, Candy Crush, Forza, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout76, Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, Diablo, Overwatch, WoW, Crash n Spyro make them tons of profit.. its the other bullshit: Project Blackbird 400m wasted Perfect dark 200m Everwild 150m redfall 70m hellblade2 80m

  @AdsoOfBelk @ByungChulHarden The dopamine/Candy Crush explanation of the problem gives the whole game away here.

  @SmashJT The problem Anita has is that her company advocates for representation of groups that don't buy many video games. Women overwhelmingly play stuff like the Sims or Candy Crush. It actively hurts these companies when they try to market to their non-core demographics (men).

  Gen-Z is not lazy or stupid, and telling them they are will just make things worse. They have executive function issues as a result of being handed a screen ever since they were children by moms who became addicted to candy crush by the time the kids were around 7.

  @asha_shar We might be in time line where sony having downfall and xbox returns to it's old self in a way from early 2000s Decision to not close studio quickly i guess was right, the one who should be fired /laidoff are people in charge of those studios and i agree that that xbox should focus on games and studio who are working fully,and are not idle or making sloppy games Time for halo franchise as top xbox game is gone now too, minecraft and candy crush definitely carrying it now 🔥 I do hope halo studios do something productive and make good halo games But having them Activision... They might milk it like callofduty, just hope story and gameplay stay good Future of gaming is grim but not lost yet Sony falling down with their stupid decisions , xbox need to rise up

  @LizzieMarbach Women are just so bad at playing them which is the real crux of the issue. Like 5 year old boys can crush them at anything that isn't...candy crush

  @iTriggerLibs69 @EQ_Legends You could just play the game and unlock most of it with no problem you don't have to pay for anything just like Candy Crush you can just play the game you don't have to buy the booster packs

  The new boss of Xbox took one of its biggest games and put it on PlayStation, the console its arch-rival sells. It sounds like a mistake. Instead, it became the best-selling new game on PlayStation last year and has passed 5 million copies, beating Sony's own new games. That single move tells you what Asha Sharma is really doing. She took over Xbox in February 2026, after Phil Spencer, who had run it for years, retired. At Bloomberg's tech conference this week, an interviewer asked what winning would look like by 2030. Her answer was blunt: the number one gaming and entertainment company in the world. Xbox is not there yet. She even called the business "not in a healthy spot," with sales falling in four of the last six quarters. So she stopped trying to win the old fight. For decades, consoles worked one way: you keep your best games locked to your own machine, so people have to buy it to play them. Sony does this better than anyone, selling close to three PlayStations for every Xbox. Sharma looked at those odds and walked away. Now she sells Xbox's games to the people who already bought a PlayStation, and last year Forza, Doom, Indiana Jones, and a stack of others showed up on Sony's console. A 70 dollar game brings in the same 70 dollars no matter whose machine you play it on. The bigger prize is reach. A few years back, Microsoft paid 75.4 billion dollars for the company behind Call of Duty and Candy Crush, the most expensive deal gaming has ever seen. Candy Crush alone has more than 200 million players a month, most of them on their phones, not on an Xbox. Count every phone, PC, console, and TV, and a Microsoft game now reaches over 500 million people a month. Sony's online network reaches 132 million. Her other moves point the same way. She cut the price of Game Pass, the monthly games subscription that works like Netflix, after admitting last year's price jump had chased people off. Sign-ups started climbing again. She scrapped an Xbox AI assistant because players did not want it and it solved no real problem. And she revealed the next Xbox, a machine built to play both Xbox games and PC games. None of this is a sure thing. The chips Xbox needs keep getting pricier instead of cheaper, because the AI boom is buying them up, and Sony still crushes Xbox on console sales. What Sharma has done is change the scoreboard. She is racing to reach the most players on every device that exists, and by that count, Xbox already sits near the top.

  @JohnnyGaming9 @khaliltooshort Yeah this isnt true because men and women play different genres entirely which is where the issues in making games are. Also, this stat likely includes mobile gaming which is a joke. The stats need to show how many people console and apC game. Not mobile. Every phone had candy crush on it for example. That doesnt mean upu are a gamer.

  @UmberHouse @Sir_Dammed Yes, *I* make it a quality issue. The whole problem, at its core, is a quality issue. Anyone can eat cheap fast food, that doesn't make everyone a gourmet. Just like anyone can play candy crush and that doesn't make them gamers

  WHAT ******** YOU PUTTING SUBWAY SURFER, YOU THINK SUBWAY SURFER ARE "AWESOME" AND "BETTER" IN THIS YEAR THAN ANOTHER GAMES HAVE BETTER EVEN ESPORTS SAME AS CANDY CRUSH, WHAT A STUPID WESTERN PLAYER AND PEOPLE. Note: For Favorite Player, no problem for me.

  @Zengeku @ShitpostRock2 The issue is that Candy Crush is a bad example of a video game. It's like saying Garfield is a comic. Yeah, it is. But most people who talk about comics are thinking about X-Men or Spiderman, not Garfield.

  @shaunmeasom @ClashofClans What an L take, nerfs are to make everyone happy. Just because you like to abuse broken stuffs, that doesn't mean everyone feels the same. If you don't like to use some braincell to play this game, you have candy crush on the playstore.

  @JDCocchiarella Agreed, good riddance. Maybe address the actual issues causing a decline in birth rates instead of blaming the younger generation and “Candy Crush.”

  Although I am happy Crash on the Run is coming back, but come on the company could’ve used actual screenshots instead of fake generated AI images (Also Crash > Candy Crush, no question)

  @KFalexthegreat @RushBaby1980 Easy to exude quiet and pensive when taxes pay for your healthcare. To so openly hate the poor and sick (and then blame the world's problems on children playing candy crush) like he does is vile.
