The community makes the game. The actual game is much less important.

The learning curve just acts as a filter that results in more like-minded people sticking with it.

That's kinda scary then considering how toxic some of the chat is! For me I think I simultaneously like the irreverence, but also the fact people take it very seriously. It's a weird combination. But yeah, sometimes the banter is not good.

stay away from official / public servers, find communities via discords etc that play the way you think you might like. some of the bigger communities have rules against the kind of toxic you get on public servers etc.

it's the same with dayz.
