Title: A diatribe on the incredibly nerdy
Product review: I understand that the public perception on RPG gamers/LARPers is the stereotypical portrait of a nerd -- socially awkward, nasally-voiced and no confidence. Unfortunately, it feels like the producers of this documentary purposely sought out the color-by-numbers stereotype of the Dungeons and Dragons gamer. Most of the gamers I have dealt with have been generally socially developed, and gaming is simply another social hobby -- the way poker or fantasy sports appeal to others. Sure, there is definitely the incredibly nerdy subculture within the gaming community, but films like this make it look like they are the majority. It just seemed like pandering to stereotypes.
