Discussion Intense Racism
Hey so I'm 35, new to rust as far as it goes. Think I'm about at 1K. When winter rolls around I have enough free time to game and then I stop playing in the spring.
The thing is the racism is so bad I'm not sure I can come back this winter. I can go a calandar year in RL without hearing the "N word". It's intrusively present within the game.
Also once a server I was on chanted "Jew" repeatedly for a solid 5 minutes. Everyone in the chat. Kind of sums up a portion of the community.
I know I could mute mics but somewhat ironically, the player interactions are some of the best part of the game for me.
Anyways, just trying to wrap my head around if I want to expose myself to this for another season.
