why do gaymer books always have to explain basic terms like avatar, do they really have to assume their audience is 70 year old boomer scum who have never seen anything newer than an Apple II

But anon, that game was trash. Why would I want to read the book?

That's not a gaymer book, it's Bleeding Edge which was literally written by a 80 year old boomer.
