If I had a penny for every slur I've seen since I started playing multiplayer games I'd be able to make a life-size copper and zinc replica of the Sun. If I had a dollar for every slur I've seen in the past two weeks I'd be richer than Bezos.
Honestly fuck gamers. Little weasels make my fucking blood boil.
it's weird how much this varies game to game, even though big ones pretty much share an audience. Like, Guild Wars 2 (and presumably other mmos, that's just my point of reference) has its problems for sure, but people on it are about as bad as people IRL, apart from in the matchmade small group competitive multiplayer bit. I think having to do Team Sports in that bizzare way, where you're just with a bunch of random people who you've never seen before & will never see again, is really bad for brains in general. Retvrn to laggy TF2 dedicated servers!
i will say that of all the mmos i've ever played (a lot) FFXIV is probably the best as far as community goes. GW2 is one I don't remember having many community-based issues with, but it's been a handful of years since i've logged in
yeah, heard a lot of good things about FFXIV but... no Charr....... (as well as barely even playing any video games at this point anyways, certainly not got time for another MMO)
no charr but there are big cat men (hrothgar)
but no big cat women...... if they added playable female hrothgar (and didn't do the thing where they minimise the species specific traits on the female model) then it might get me on board
that's fair; in all reality i'm not trying to get more people to give square
softenix their money but it does suck
