Otherwise just pretend that it's a single game experience as the quality between VIII and IX is enormous and the difference between IX and the rest is even bigger. Minus X, I guess.

Topic	How long roughly are Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 to beat?
ellis123 05/24/24 6:01:25 PM #5	It has been a pretty long time, but IIRC it took me about 30 hours to beat the first one (ignoring the fact that I did the beginning multiples of times prior to the run I actually won on) and the second one was somewhere around 70. That said I wouldn't really worry about playing them prior to 3. Yes there is some carry over bits, but it's more nods than it is stuff that you need to know and the two games are definitely dated. All of the super old Infinity Engine games were a blast at the time, but playing them now really isn't going to quite hit the mark. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?

That said, I started with modern works back in post 28: https://anichart.net/Spring-2024 There is plenty of yuri currently being run, but unless I missed something it's all done by guys. Which was the entire point, really, as I only brought up manga because you can at least get gender statistics: this is a topic primarily focused on animated stuffs (in my eyes), the existence of manga is mostly just a tangential thing as you can usually get a reasonable 1:1 demographics between the two. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?

One which was 52:46 and the other was 47:44, or two that are extremely to a 1:1. Hence why I said that there are two ways to read this: either you go by who is buying the manga and it has a male bias, or you go by the polling and it has an even distribution with no real bias.

ellis123 05/24/24 2:15:21 PM #33	AceMos posted... links to multiple polls showing lesbians are the largest consumers The most lopsided polling, as in the only poll with a male:female ratio that wasn't almost 1:1, was the Comic Yuri Hime polling. Which explicitly favored men by a notable margin: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/03b871c4.png So yes, there are plenty of minor publishers who found a 51:49 split, or something similar, finding that their audience had an edge towards women, the one with the most popularity has a notable shift otherwise. This in spite of being the source of things like I'm in Love with the Villainess, The Summer you were there, etc. Similarly, the act of having the largest demographic not be the one that you aren't in doesn't mean that you aren't allowed to consume. While I would agree that you can make the argument that it's "for everyone" as opposed to "for women/men", I feel that the distinction largely isn't relevant as the entire point of my premise is that the overwhelmingly large amount of yuri anime being produced is explicitly the things that fall into the "are popular with guys who buy figs" crowd far more than they are in the "are popular with any other crowd" line up. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?

So, statistically speaking, yuri is a genre made by men and is being consumed by men.
