When it comes to revealed preferences vs. stated preferences, "Gamers" probably have the wildest difference between them.

Games shouldn't cost $70!! [consistently pays $70 for games]

Game sequels suck, they're just rehashes of previous games!! [buys the sequels anyway]

Games shouldn't have AI content! [buys games with AI content]

Microtransactions are terrible! [pays for microtransactions]

Loot boxes are ruining games! [plays games with loot boxes]

Anti-cheats are rootkits. They are unacceptable! [plays games with anti-cheat]

That's it, they crossed the line. I'll never buy that game! [buys the game]
