Original dota was fantastic. First death you were being told to kill yourself and uninstall life. Good times I miss it.
R.I.P Garena, on RGC people still do that tho, on normal dota from WC3 such retards were rare. i still member my balanar build on a lan house where the experienced players complimented my retardedness just because i thought the item gave cool effects for a melee char, can't say anything about HoN, the game seems to be undead with localization towards asians.
the question is why are they bitter faggots. after decades now I think "if you build it they'll come" holds true to some extend, turning into a vicious cycle of shit game attracting shit players to the point make it shit for everyone else which makes people leave, costing the devs and let the game be shit and never improve it.
while you always have those kind of dumbfucks, it really depends how the game support it (and how popular it is, which attracts it own kinds of fucktards) and how you can avoid them. like you said throwing newbs into the same matches as "veterans" is simply retarded, and with the ubiquitous matchmaking you don't even have the community feel of old where other player's aren't considered fodder to be farmed. there's no common interest in having a good match or not making the game shit for everyone else.
that "throwing newbies vs veterans to make them better" is the same retarded thinking quake people had, where fragging newbies would make them hardened veterans and shit because monke see monke do. which is proved to be a huge fucking lie, there wasn't that much MP options back in the day so people just stuck with it, it also depends on the game like a sociopath simulator like EVE? sure go for it but expect player retention to be shit, on animal crossing? super retarded and is usually frowned upon, korean games also follow this line of thinking, MMORPG's from them oft have open world pvp, mu online, lineage2 and black desert comes to mind, where a grinding nolifer can kill undergeared folk for being on "his spot" and nothing short of a similar-geared folk can kill him because of stat/damage reduction
Does it seem like that single-player games somehow have more toxic fanbases than multiplayer games at times? The Danganronpa fanbase is one example of that, but given the premise of the games, where high school students are trapped and have to kill each other to try to escape, the game would obviously attract those types of edgy and toxic people.
Danganronpa is a weeb game, you must be joking to wonder if a SP anime game isn't going to draw retards, persona series do the same thing but persona is cool tho.
People have mentioned LoL, I'd just like to echo it a little. I joined league around 2014 'ish. Not 3 games in and I already had people on my ass for not being an autistic master at the game. Granted I can kinda feel where they come from. Noob's in anything is generally not a fun thing. But I slowly started turing into these people when I got "better" at the game. League was a game I had to stop because I was getting irrationally angry at total nobodies online. It ain't healthy. Noxus best faction though.
LoL fellers are autistic on quickplay matches, i let it slide on rankeds but on QP it's annoying having them autists wannabe pro players, quite like valorant but both games are from riot games...
on dota2 i was getting my rust away by playing and ting since it didn't had bot matches back then, tryhard literally said i was griefing on a quickmatch even after i specifically said i didn't play it for years and wanted to get my rust off for some nostalgia points, coulda called him a tryharding faggot on a quickplay match for everyone to laugh but being banned sucks.
it's the "feeling better" thing autistic retards have, they want a quick serotonin shot and don't seem to enjoy rubbing themselves or it doesn't have any effect anymore.
