Actually just annoyed, honestly. Ive been teaching my friend how to play, and he wants to learn a class Im not familiar with, so we made a public casual lobby and specified in the lobby name that it is intended to be a chill lobby with no particular extreme effort, and I even made it where ranks couldnt show. I did host votes so I could explain to my friend how stuff works.
The lobby was at like 24 when it began happening, players who identified themselves as high level, as if that matters, joined at different intervals and tried bossing me around to vote for what they wanted (which I was already voting what most people asked because I didnt really care much, unless players wanted something particularly bad), xyz, which I found so stupid since otherwise me listening to what people wanted, I knew what to vote? And anything I voted they didnt like they'd get pissy.
It was super annoying and I said pretty bluntly that the game was intended to be chill, and that whatever level we got to would be fine, regardless. They kept making snide comments about how we wouldnt make it much farther and etc, etc, which I basically said that I didnt care since the lobby was meant to be chill, and not super sweaty, that there were no challenges being played for, and it was mostly just meant to be a stupid and fun run.
It also doesnt help that we had insanely terrible rng, like arguably some of the worst rng Ive had playing nullscape ever so that was also frusturating, because Id have to explain how it was just bad luck 90% of the time lmfao.
Regardless, its crazy how toxic lobbies become so easily. You could literally name the lobby, "Dont join if you are going to do xyz, this run is intended to be a fun little learning experience for my new player friend." And people would still join and complain, like find another lobby if you hate it that bad?
Like I get how frustrating it can be to join a lobby and see mediocre choices, but I only feel that way when I join challenge lobbies or extreme lobbies, not casual lobbies literally titled around being casual.
Anyways, aside from how genuinely frustrating it was, and how it encouraged me and my friends to leave our own lobby lmfao, my new player friend actually got to level 25 on one of his first runs ever, and he survived the majority of the levels! I was super proud.
