Guild Wars 2. Which games have the friendliest communities?

Table of Contents

  1. In a nutshell: a classic competitor to World of Warcraft
  2. Genre: MMORPG
  3. Business model: free-to-play (core game) and buy-to-play (expansions)

A casual MMORPG with no room for toxicity. Of course, there are times when it does appear, but the design of the game makes those instances a rare phenomenon. People generally don't steal mobs, flowers, or otherwise hinder the experience.

Even in arena PvP no one will call you out because you don't have the necessary equipment. ArenaNet Studio managed to create a network RPG, which, as a rule, gives no reason to insult others. This makes the players friendlier to each other. And maybe the malicious ones just chose other MMO's that are better suited to their perverted minds?

Here, no one forces anyone to do anything, and people try to cooperate. Someone might ask for help or offer it themselves. At the same time, when players cannot come to an agreement, the administration often intervenes, solving the problems. However, these situations are rare, because in Guild Wars 2, people prefer to sort it out, rather than gnaw each other.
