For example, I play the drums and tend to think of myself as a drummer. Do you love games, consider yourself a gamer? Are you a chef, a bodybuilder, maybe an artist? What is it that you love to do?

    I would say gamer, but that doesn’t really mean ttrpgs these days. Maybe storyteller, but its been awhile since i was in the ST chair.

      Good point. To add to that, even as a person whose main hobby is playing computer games, I’m often reluctant to refer to myself as a “gamer.” I feel like the term has been stereotyped a bit toward toxic incel-types, though maybe that’s just my own perspective. Nevermind that literally half my IRL “gamer” friends are leftist women.

      I don’t have much experience with it (one super awkward d&d session), but ttrpgs seem super cool! I think you can still say gamer, just because your game isn’t electronic doesn’t mean it isn’t awesome and fun 💜
