      Not surprising, considering esports celebrities used to be regular members of various gaming communities before they became successful, and gaming communities in general have always had a problem with reactionary elements. About 15+ years ago, I used to play a few games competitively, and people casually throwing slurs at each other was a common occurrence. Even your average lib of the era wouldn't hesitate to throw in a slur from time to time.

          Hah, I remember that notorious Daikatana ad. Surprisingly enough, John Romero has turned out to be alright, and is even an outspoken ally of the LGBTQ+ community now. Unlike many other '90s 'rockstar' game developers, he seems like a decent person. The same can't be said for his former colleague John Carmack, who calls himself a libertarian (lol), and hangs out with typical chuds. That seems to be a common thing among many old school developers.
