10 Video Game Features Devs Deleted Because Of YOU

10. Global Chat (Divinity: Original Sin)

Global chat and epic RPGs should go together like ice cream and waffles. The chance to delve into a fantastical adventure and check in with your fellow players, asking for hints, talking about tough bosses, or just singing the game's praises at the same time is a mouth-watering thought. 

This sort of wholesome experience was, naturally, what Larian Studios intended a global chat feature in Divinity: Original Sin to do, so they included one in the game's early access. But, like a swift great axe to the head, this feature was soon lopped off, as the full release deleted this chat function. 

Whose fault was it? The players. 

Swen Vincke, the founder of Larian Studios, discussed this decision in an interview with Kotaku, where he claimed it "seemed like the floodgates of Hell were opened," as the chat was quickly bombarded with "insults and shouting at each other." Considering that this went massively against the experience, Larian decided to remove the feature entirely to preserve the game's integrity. 

Well done, everyone, you ruined the fun.
