Warframe's community is the nicest, least toxic community I've ever encountered. Not saying there aren't toxic ass holes, there certainly are, but compared to other online game communities I've been part of the Warframe community is a breath of fresh air.

So perhaps the updated hypothesis is all asshole communities are tied to live service games, but not all live service games have asshole communities?

[–] natecox@programming.dev 6 points 8 months ago

I’m not a huge mmo fan but I do like Final Fantasy 14, in part because the community is surprisingly friendly.

So yeah, I support “live service games attract bad communities, but sometimes they rise above that”.

No, there are asshole in all types of games including Single player. Even if Souls has multiplayer, I've seen toxic communities in even games like Breath of the Wild

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Pretty much, yeah.

Half the community is from the intelligence community, it's in their interest to keep it nice so new players keep joining and leaking top secret technical specs

Warframe, not Warthunder. Warthunder is a toxic shithole.

[–] wahming@monyet.cc 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ah whoops. Don't play either.

Maybe warframe has some lost and confused spooks who are waiting for their big break?

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Doubt it, seeing as Warframe has nothing to do with the current military in any way.

Not a very funny one, hence me clarifying.

Ah yes, the top secret specs of human experiments, augmenting soldiers with genetic altering diseases and space magic technologies.
