Steam forums is a cesspool of toxic negativity!

[SoloHobo]

These forums are almost scary how disgusting most people are posting here. Cynical and pathetic. You can't post anything in any forum without the worst of humanity showing immediately! I am absolutely not looking forward to seeing the flaming comments under this thread!

How about some toxic positivity instead?

You're just the absolute worst best person I've never met and may have the pleasure of meting some day!

Worst thing about it is that the toxicity will only grow tenfold in nearly every discussion hub. It’s how it is.

You learn to ignore those like in your Witcher 3 thread.

[Xhoas]

Nah...

It's just a reflection of the state of humanity today.

Cynical is scary?

Softness.

I used to think of this pmace bringing out the worst of humanity, but then I've met Reddit. Holy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥, that pmace is vile!

Their moderators do t help either, I've reported stuff directed towards me that was more toxic than what I received warnings around here for and they came back "nope, it's fine".

Yeah and when people are anonymous on the internet it just brings out the worst of the worst

We all play a lot of games instead of being social. A lack of social skills and being able to hide behind an anonymous wall and being safe from repercussions when sociopathic posts are made brings out bad behavior.
Some of these folks take games way too seriously. Best to keep the discussion short and technical e.g. "CTD when I do X please help"

Non-toxic negativity might be an improvement.
