The point I was trying to make is that it's really easy to make that claim based on opinion and not data (we don't have the data) just like I did. You can vilify me for my retort, but if you fail to see that it is functionally identical to both of yours than you misunderstood the exercise.
So to answer your question, yes I was being purposely obtuse. I don't think it's fair to say there are "many more people" as such an absolute as you did, much like I would never make the statement off the cuff in seriousness like I did above.
You also mention "the community" as a whole, but that's a fallacy in and of itself. Which community? Here? Reddit? The OF? Not to mention that actual majority rarely interact in any form of media to begin with.
I don't know why WoW was brought up, I didn't see it in the scope of the discussion to begin with.
Please understand that I am a fan of the game and quite enjoy the story even myself, but I tend to call out misinformation or inappropriate generalizations as I think they're unhealthy to perpetuate.
