A new study has found that 70 percent of gamers avoid certain games because of ‘toxic communities’.

    Big part of the reason why I enjoy cooperative games nowadays like Risk of Rain 2, Helldivers, Deep Rock Galactic, etc.

    You can occasionally come across a toxic person, but the broader communities in said games are amazing on the whole.

      Deep Rock Galactic is better than most in this department. (I haven’t played the others you mentioned.) I like how it supports only predefined shouts. “Morkite here.” “Rock and Stone!”

      Unfortunately, griefers still managed to ruin my night more than a few times. (And I couldn’t report them, because for some reason, all of their usernames were in Chinese, which I can’t read.)
