I play both overwatch and counter strike. While overwatch does a great job of making sure I don't see slurs most of the time, the community is toxic af. I can't go a single game without someone saying "tank diff, DPS diff, support diff" and whatever else directed insult they got.
Counterstrike on the other hand, surprisingly wholesome. Many games players will say good try after you fail and be pretty supportive. Sometimes you get assholes who just say slurs cause they can of course but that's like, once or twice a month. Overwatch is literally every god damn match minus the slur part.
