The most toxic communities I know of are the Genshin community, Payday 2, FFXIV and source games communities in general.

  • This! I’ve always had super friendly interactions with Genshin co-op, even when searching through the co-op tab rather than looking online (aside from one kid I had to kick because I was not going to buy them a welkin lol). The only time I’ve come across problematic behavior is through social media. It’s also very popular so of course on twitter and reddit there is going to be a large loud volume of immature people, but that’s most games. In game people are usually good.

    • even around the game people are good provided you aren’t broadly exposed to it via tiktok/twitter/reddit/twitch. Some of the smaller genshin discords have been really helpful and sweet and full of good people. But honestly I think there’s just a critical mass where communities like that kinda blow up so that’s not a genshin problem so much as that’s a “so many people in one place at one time” kind of problem lol
