How do we stop toxicity in gaming culture?

[Hearts™]

Having progressive elements in a game shouldn't put a huge target on its back for widespread ridicule and mockery. This is a cultural problem that runs deep among gamers. What can or should we do to correct course?

Thank you for demonstrating the problem so concisely. We want a breadth of characters and stories that reflect the feelings and experiences of many different people, and you want boobs.

I don't give a smash about anyone's feelings or experiences per se. I do not even know why it's a good thing to pretend to.

Make it cool first.

And yes, boobs may help.

Preachy party killer.

Easiest way to stop toxicity is if developers start to design characters again that we want to make sweet sweet love to instead of making us hate them.

You know I've also felt like I've been a party pooper in here, but I have been pooping a pretty poopy party.

"How do we stop toxicity in gaming culture?"
By permanently banning woke ideology from gaming.

Easy, you don't. Just let it sink in and deal with it.
Free speech is lovely, don't you think 👍

Just because you call yourself progressive doesn't mean you aren't regressive in reality. "Progressives" are usually a few decades behind.
