10 Video Games That Were Ruined By Their Own Fanbases
7. Call Of Duty
Like Counter Strike, Call of Duty can be a particularly hostile online environment, especially for beginners who are unaccustomed to being verbally abused for every misstep. Unlike Counter Strike however, you wont be berated for your inexperience alone, but for your race, or your gender or your sexuality.
For whatever reason, Call of Duty just brings out the worst in people; it doesnt help that everyone who plays the game tends to be below the age of fifteen either.
Honestly, theres only so many times someone can call you the same handful of insensitive slurs before the game itself is tarnished as a result. You can disable you microphone, but youll know theyre still there, calling each all sorts of racial or homophonic phrases in their prepubescent, high-pitched voices.
