Online games with fun communities?

Post Reply New Topic

Any of you play any MMOs etc? I would love to find a game with a good online community that isn't full of toxicity and people who take it so seriously.

maybe final fantasy 14 for good community

I doubt many people take Palia too seriously

If you find one let us know!

I’m a casual player too. I learned the hard way that admitting that I’m “casual” is the target word for bullies to exploit. MMO communities are some of the most toxic that I’ve ever encountered.

Still, I know that there are good people in the world.

Good luck!

Splatoon 3!

It's designed for both competitive & casual play.

In-match conversation is limited to preprogrammed lines, so there's pretty much no opportunity for trash talking when everyone's focused on beating the enemy team.

The Reddit community for this game is very wholesome IME.

^yeah Splatoon 3 and its Playstation counterpart Foamstars

Also, the online game Faaaast Penguin

In Splatoon 3 I'm almost super fresh with aerospray RG in turf war. I guees I'm using a cheap weapon because I win alot. I charge at the base and ink everything

Guess I should get into competitive but scared there will be a huge skill jump

Final Fantasy 14 has really impressed me with how nice the community is. There are a few bad apples, but most people are totally chill, and bad behavior isn't taken lightly by the mods and devs. The community is remarkably good at self-policing, with other members reporting violations they see. Reports usually get a response within minutes or hours, rather than days or weeks.

New players are very welcomed, and aren't given a hard time for not immediately being experts at the game. Veteran players are usually happy to help explain things to new players, and many veteran players are marked as Mentors, meaning they're available for questions from inexperienced players. Simply stating "I'm new, first time!" when entering a dungeon with others usually gets met with welcomes and helpful advice.

Even PvP battles are fairly laid back, and players don't get all bent cos you're not as good as they are. Most players are just trying to have fun, and don't take it super seriously. You can admit you're a noob or a casual, and people won't bite your head off. There are hordes of players who only log in to play mini-games at the "casino", or craft and create clothes and fashion, or play music as a bard, or customize their private apartment, or whatever.

Free Companies (guilds, basically) are always recruiting, and tend to be pretty active. There are plenty that are geared towards new or casual players.

There's still the occasional weirdo or jerk, but they're few and far between, and usually pretty tame.

I'm looking for one of these too! I used to love the old Pirates of the Caribbean online. I'd love an MMO that has an enjoyable and welcoming community.
