Online gaming has gained a lot of traction over the past decade, but every popular game was doomed by toxicity at one point. Now, Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 is suffering from this problem. Since its release, there have been many conflicts among the Helldivers 2 community and now, the community has started shaming players who criticize unnecessarily and spread toxicity.

A recent post on the Helldivers 2 subreddit pointed out how this problem is slowly killing the game. Many players agree that there are players within the community who whine for no reason, particularly over the game’s difficulty. The game provides players with 9 different difficulty levels, so if the game is too difficult, one can try out a lower difficulty level.
Is the community ruining Helldivers 2?

The mystery behind Halo 3 removing match-wide proximity chat from ranked mode has finally been solved, but the answer being a special kind of toxicity was unexpected. Toxicity in gaming is an unfortunate consequence of having an anonymous identity that you can hide behind; it was no different in Halo 2.
