Yeah, Naari misunderstanding/misrepresenting some source is nothing new.
In that old discussion, he tried to use the Quantic Foundry survey to argue that competitiveness and destruction is a low motivation for people to play games. Except, he totally misunderstood the numbers and the survey actually listed those factors as some of the main motivations for young males.
So it doesn’t surprise me, that he is trying to shoehorn any data to try and support his views.
