Women not liking guys who play video games tends to not be the act of the game itself but rather than a good chunk of bad bfs put the game as a higher priority of attention than the gf when they are over.
At least from what I have observed and heard from others.

My bf plays games a lot but still gives me plenty of attention and love 🤷♀️
they dislike dipshits who make their whole personality about a dumb hobby, who [as you said] prioritize said hobby over all else, and who are slobs with poor diets about their utterly common, completely not obscure or unusual or interesting hobby)
As ever, it's the juicebox conundrum.
I do twitch as a hobby that makes a little money so I hope that's not a big issue outside of gaming being my major hobby.
Like idk if that's obsessive or dedication.
No other form of entertainment has this stigma. Largely because games are relatively quite new.
My relationship is going strong after a decade precisely because we both have solo hobbies, as well as shared ones.
Or give her a controller and play together.
There's ways to play while still including everyone.
Even while making my game or playing them, I treated my gf like my wife and she was my highest priority
Liking videogames goes without a saying nowadays so if you have to state that that means you have nothing else.
My wife did comment before on how much she dislikes the toxicity
I also feel like some people look over some much larger red flags that are the actual source of the problem. It just shows more when they play games.
Gaming in itself can be an addiction.
Me and my bf live together now but b4 that he would not play when I came over. Bc for goodness sake I'm only there for one night a week
It just a hobby that seems to take up "everything" more often, compared to others.
I hope you still go out and do things with your own friends at least..
I used to love games and I still enjoy the culture to an extent, but I've really been soured on them for many reasons as time goes by
We've been married for 13 years and just had a baby ♥️
That was such a relationship wrecker in the peak days lol
"My dad stepped out for cigs" levels of inattention
There's a reason there are save features.
Like I keep saying, if it's important, you make time for it. The game can wait. Make damn sure she knows she's important to you.
I play video games myself, and so does my current bf, but it doesn't consume our lives. It's not an unhealthy obsession.
Those are the only guys i see doing that. But maybe I'm just naive.
In hindsight I think video games like anything else can be an addiction.
Gotta get someone that also wants to put the games on a higher priority so you can both get overly worked up and take it to bed
I am a gamer. I prioritize my partners over gaming and it's never been an issue. I have also dated women who were gamers.
People who can't balance life and relationships isn't something exclusive to gaming.
Also, dress well, exercise often, bathe regularly.
That’ll solve 90% of the aversion, methinks from personal experience.
I’m no player, but I may as well be James Bond in my nerdier circles.
Never done that even with friends
It's never the medium, it's the deadbeat
In a world of suck it feels good to be good at something, in some regards it is similar to stoner culture or shopping addiction, any gender
It becomes more than it should be in a life
