      I’ve had voice chat disabled since forever. I will not listen to the tools I play against. Racist and political trolls along with just general assholery. Not worth it. The only time VoIP is worth it these days is of you’re playing with a known group that polices its chat.

        Yes. But fun is relative. When I play rocket league, I like to try my hardest. If I'm not trying hard, it's not as exiting. So it's frustrating when playing ranked and for example your teammate is not even trying . Maybe RL isn't the best example because matches are under 10 minutes, so I can just start another one, but games where you spend an hour, it's just different

        No. It's not mature. If you play it like a sport, then being a gentleman is very important for your fun and growth both.

          On a side note I shouldn't be getting comm banned for swearing on a game that's not only rated M but also has swearing in the game.

            As long as we can also agree that over bearing forced positivity due to fear of triggering a black box automated ban system is also total ass and fucking ruins games.

            I don't want to see racism and sexism every single match, but I also don't want the game to censor every single possible thing to the point the community basically becomes lobotomized and unhuman out of God damn fear.

            League is a great example. It was a toxic cess pit of unholy levels. Now everyone is so fucking fake and scared to anger the AI black box over lord that no one acts like a normal person.

            Or you end up with half your team muted cause of bullshit fake reasons the AI thinks could offend a made up Karen on a power trip so you can't communicate at all.

            It's not fun on either extremes.

            that league example is the exception and not the rule. most games have horrible measures against sexism and racism and whatnot. the issue with league's system is that it's ai-based and ai makes mistakes all the time, not the fact that it's trying to stop toxicity.

                    Unpopular opinion but games with community-driven multiplier (i.e. people hosting their own servers) is infinitely better than matchmaking multiplayer running on the dev/publisher's servers if only for the sole reason that players have a choice of what kinds of communities they want to build and what things other players should be allowed to do instead of being forced into a sterilized commercial monoculture. I should be able to say "KYS KYS" in game if the people I'm playing with are okay with it.

                      That and it's easier to make genuine connections with regulars. Nowadays for that you have to go out of your way to join a community discord or similar because nearly all multiplayer games are built to play with your existing friends.

                        Honestly, I’m not a fan of that sort of censorship.

                        I grew up in the Time Before Internet, and played all of the earliest online games. Trash talk is simply part of the experience as far as I’m concerned. On Team Fortress Classic, you had to abuse a motherfucker through text chat. And we loved it: everyone was enjoying that novel experience.

                        Back in the day of early COD on Xbox Live, lobbies were wild. Heck, even Uno subjected you to everything from ‘teach me slurs in your language’ to ‘random dude masturbating on camera while smoking a joint’.

                        I still play the occasional online game, but they’re boring and soulless. Very few people are on comms, as most seem afraid to actually talk. And with good reason; any sort of mildly spicy talk would get you banned on games. So instead of fostering a friendly atmosphere, from my perspective it ended up killing the entire vibe.

                        Let folks talk trash. Give as good as you get. And if that’s not for you? There’s other games to play.

                        It's not trash talk at all though. And even ignoring the language itself, trash talk is towards your opponents (where still most people don't get how to do it in a non-obnoxious way, i.e. someone spamming ez after they win a game isn't trash talk it's being annoying). Most of the really bad flame happens towards teammates because everyone needs to blame someone else.

                        Irl sports get by just fine without people constantly being pieces of shit, I dunno why it's so hard to apply that to online games.

                              This is easily the bougiest comment I've read in a while. What world might they live in, where more people play IRL sports than more expensive online games?

                              I can play a lot of my games on a computer that cost me less than $100, plus peripherals. Gaming is cheap nowadays as long as you're not gunning for the newest crap, and it lasts a long while. Meanwhile, playing basketball regularly requires you either have reliable access to a car (I don't) or live in an area where there's a publically available basketball court, AND enough people to play. Yeah, you could set up hoops in the street or something, but literal cars run through there. And people need to back out of their driveway. If you can't do it in your neighborhood, then you have to spend time that a lot of low-income folks don't have traveling to and from somewhere that does have the requisite things. Not impossible, but not at as convenient as an old business laptop from 2017 off Ebay with Steam on it.

                                Did I say raise my voice? That's how you'd react. Not I'm saying when people show up not ready ro play Damn right I'm going to let them know that's inappropriate.

                                    'Fun' and 'chill' are not the same concept. Fun things can be irritating, can make you excited and go through various emotions.
