Does WoW have a faster pace than FFXIV?

[Reap00]

Conversely, in my ... four or so years of playing WoW? I never encountered the toxicity you're talking about. Though the roleplaying community on Moon Guard habitually fell into "She said, she said" nonsense. But I never experienced the seemingly mythical toxicity that people talk about. Experiences are like that, eh?



Also, not to throw fuel on the fire, but Destro Lock actually has a fair bit of interactivity going on with it right now. Granted actually getting to that interactivity is a slog and a half.

I played WoW from launch till Cataclysm. At launch people were pretty cool and laid back. With the arrival of dps meters and mods that tell you everything to do including when to scratch your ass the game degenerated to a toxic cesspool. People allowed to talk about anything and everything in open world chats spewing all kinds of hatred and nonsense. If you don't encounter it you have your chat off. Although come to think of it with the amount of people that are leaving WoW these days maybe you don't see it so much.
