"WoW sucks, even though I've never played it and my opinion is based on absolutely nothing concrete."

...Just a small taste of how it goes.

This community, overall, is relatively friendly for the most part. But I wouldn't put it up on a pedestal and shout to the heavens about it. It has its own brand of toxicity. Always has, really. Instead of outright hostility it is usually a combination of passive aggressiveness and superiority complexes.
I don’t get why people keep bringing WoW up though to be honest. You clearly know the reaction it gets, so why do it?

I’d agree FF14 has a lot of passive agressivness in NN and on forums but for me that’s head and shoulders above some of the stuff I saw in trade chat when playing wow.
