Reader Discussion: What Community Issues Make You Leave A Game?
Earlier today, we asked you about your favorite online gaming communities over the years. But what about the ones that aren’t so great?
Have you ever liked a game, but eventually stopped playing because of a toxic social community in-game? What issues are the most problematic for you – griefing, cheating players, unfriendliness to new players, abusive voice chat or shouting (like our friend, the Ultimate Warrior, above), or something else?
Tell us your stories about gaming communities that drove you away, and why, in the comments below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
