While most women and men didn’t have a preferred time of day for gaming, female gamers proved slightly more prone to playing games during the night. Interestingly, gamers from the 18-34 age group turned out to be the most insensitive to violence. Gamers spending more than 8 hours each day playing games proved to be at the very peak of violence-insensitivity. In general, the more time people spent playing games, the less sensitive they were towards violence. Results showed that US and UK gamers seemed the least sensitive to it while Brazilians had the highest share of pacifists and people who dislike violence among them. Violence is a common aspect of many games, so the Opera survey asked gamers about their attitudes towards it. While globally most people play 3 or less games at a time, Poles, Brits and Americans proved to be the most likely to play 4 or more games, with 35%, 37% and 39% respectively playing the highest number of games. Why play only one game when you can play four? As expected, the numbers went up the second time we asked: one third of surveyed gamers gave higher estimates: 31% admitted playing 3-4 hours a day, 30% 5-6 hours a day and 39% admitted gaming between 7 hours a day and never stopping. From our experience, this applies equally to how much time they spend gaming. No one wants to admit how much time they really spend in front of their screens. But this experience varies according to region: the largest chunk of gamers from the UK and US had their first gaming experience playing Wii with their families. Gamers love to play games on both their PCs and mobile devices, and this experience starts early: We found out that 34% of people who currently play games on smartphones or tablets were handed a tablet to keep them quiet in their childhood.
