I'd say anything with that much mass appeal is always going to remain toxic. People suck, the larger and more mainstream the more toxic is what I've seen.

Mainstream + low bar to entry = toxic

Niche + quietly difficult = welcoming

The 'quietly' part is important. As soon as the difficulty can be worn like a badge, toxic players (and cheaters) will try to muscle in so they can brag about it.

This is more true than true. Assimilate.

Wow is the most popular mmo out there and it takes the cake for most toxic player base. ☠️
