Outriders has had a bit of a rocky launch, and it has gotten a significant amount of backlash online as a result. Unfortunately, gamers are often inconsiderate to community managers, which is something that Daley “Kong” Johnson is all too familiar with. Johnson took to Twitter to share her experiences working as a community manager at Rare during the launch of Sea of Thieves. During that time, she saw a lot of abuse hurled at staffers online as a result of that game’s own launch issues. According to Johnson, it got so bad that Rare brought in a psychologist for group therapy sessions, as a result.
The replies give me.major flashbacks to when I launched Sea of Thieves with a team of CMs at Rare.
The abuse we got was so damaging that Rare hired in a psychologist to give us group therapy.
Seriously. Disgusted by people. You cause real harm. https://t.co/wbx1hECMPf
