I wanted to get some tips on Rogue and hopefully some build ideas, and holy Tyrael, is that place a cesspool of toxicity. If you havent played the game, from the opinions of the locals you’d had thought this game is the worst thing since WW2, every class is basically unplayable and unless you can steamroll bosses 20+ higher than you in nightmare dungeons, your opinion is basically worthless. Any interesting discussion gets swamped by trolls and unconstructive spiteful comments. I had to stop going there because I felt it actually impacted my enjoyment of the game.
Anyone else had the same experience with the official forums?
I’d say it’s mostly games that attract super competitive types. I think they feel a lot of pressure to compete and get stressed out about any obstacle or inconvenience that they think prevents them from doing that so lash out about it. Offline single player only games seem to have this problem less frequently.
