we weren’t talking about gaming industry, we were talking about toxicity and harassment on gaming community
i don’t know about you, but i find it better that today i can use my voice in online games and only be harassed 4 or 5 of 10 matches and knowing that someone in the lobby will support me, and that i can report that toxic person. While in the past i couldn’t use my mic because they will hear a woman talking with mexican accent and the entire lobby will go nuts harassing me until i leave the lobby or until they kicked me.
the mayor difference is that today people is more competitive on online games, that’s why we see a lot of people getting mad because they’re losing, even tho the players are angrier because of that they don’t even reach the same level of harassment and toxicity like in the past.
i still remember how the dota community made me change my account multiple times because i was harassed just for dominating another player
