![]() I hope I didn't have too much ruined for me but it looks like this is going to be a massive game. I envy those who have been avoiding spoilers. I tend to obsess over FromSoft games when they come out, they're just so binge-worthy compared to most games. Lol I'll prob have it beat in like 4 days.

More than two-thirds of online game players say they use voice chat and the majority of those say they employ voice chat regularly. Voice Chat Remains Popularĭespite the issues, voice chat is a widely adopted feature. This means game makers have a significant incentive to offer a voice chat feature, and to actively police bad behavior. However, despite the issues, the mere presence of voice chat tends to boost these key metrics and average revenue per user. We also found that many users change their behavior after experiencing toxic behavior incidents and these directly undermine game maker key performance indicators such as session length, session frequency, and retention. Why? They are avoiding toxic behavior common to voice chat channels. In industry interviews we found that some players even opt-out of voice chat altogether in these game formats and use text chat, a ping system, or no communications at all while playing. This is an important finding because it goes beyond simply identifying the rate of toxicity, but also captures player sentiment about severity by communication channel. The different UGC categories were all rated similarly. In-game play was rated second worst to voice chat, followed by text chat in third. We asked online gamers to rate three categories of UGC, in-game play, and voice and text chat separately on a 0-5 scale indicating the severity of the toxicity problem. ![]() It turns out that these problems are worst in voice chat. Sexually explicit language, swear words, terms considered to be hate speech, some forms of trolling, and other categories combined with other forms of harassment all negatively impact player experience. Toxic behavior is a broader category that includes activities that undermine the player experience more generally but may not be directed at a specific player or overtly intended to do harm. In addition, there are several forms of harassment ranging from bullying and griefing to sexual harassment and doxing. Harassment has a legal definition that varies around the world but it is directed and intentional. However, when we set out to learn more, it became clear that surveys typically only asked about overall voice chat incidents and did not dig deeper to understand the nuances of the problem.įor example, we wanted to differentiate between harassment and other forms of toxic behavior. Several previous studies have identified voice chat as a current and growing problem for harassment and toxic behavior in online games. We hope that the new report can be helpful for game developers working to improve player experience by reducing the incidence of toxic behavior. Speechly commissioned the research after learning from game makers that they had very little information about user voice chat experience beyond player submitted complaints and anecdotal evidence posted in social media. ![]() The data are included in a 60-page report developed by Speechly and Voicebot Research that includes nearly 50 charts and diagrams. They also said that voice chat was the channel with the biggest toxic behavior problem, beating out text-chat, in-game play, and user-generated content (UGC) by significant margins. online game players said they had experienced a toxic behavior incident in voice chat. ![]() ![]() In a new national consumer survey, about half of U.S. ![]() ![]() ![]() Latest game from Kiwi fitness leader takes dance workouts into a new dimension by offering an unparalleled VR experience on the Meta Quest 3 headset.

I've always used acini de pepe when I need a very small pasta, which seems similar to pastina albeit with a round shape instead of a five-pointed star shape.

She pressed the sword harder against the man’s skin. The man obliged, but Cassandra noticed he kept something grasped in his hand. “Move an inch without my permission and I slit your fucking throat.” Cassandra turned her attention to the doe-eyed woman against the tree. She found one other dagger tucked in the waistband of his pants, and tossed it towards the other two knives. Cassandra kicked it far enough away that he wouldn’t be able to get it, and quickly patted his sides to find any other weapons. Instead, Cassandra snuck up behind the man, put her sword to his neck, and kneed him in the groin, causing him to groan and drop the comparatively small knife he had brandished at the woman’s throat.
