Summit1g responds to accusations of toxicity in Sea of Thieves with passion-fueled rant Rare Limited \/ Summit1GPopular Twitch streamer Jaryd \u2018summit1g\u2019 Lazar gave his response to a compilation video that accused the broadcaster of \u201cextreme toxicity\u201d and highlighted a string of his moments containing harsh comments. Summit has been enjoying a successful run of Sea of Thieves streams, but some in the game\u2019s community believe that the 1G could dial back the disruptive behavior. Summit disagrees. The streamer took time in his broadcast to passionately share thoughts on the state of toxicity in games, suggesting that players need to stop pretending to be \u201cCare Bears at every step of the way\u201d and embrace occasional moments of incivility. Summit further explained his actions are part of his audience\u2019s expectations, and added that there are a few streamers who depend on some levels of aberrant behaviour to keep their streams entertaining. \u201cWhy are we acting like that\u2019s \u2018extreme toxicity,\u2019\u201d summit said. \u201c1. I\u2019m not telling anyone that I\u2019m effing (sic) their moms; 2. I\u2019m not dropping any sort of racial slurs; 3. I\u2019m not making anyone feel awful about their lives. I\u2019m just talking shit while I\u2019m slaying. That\u2019s complete normal levels of toxicity on any other video game.\u201d The 1G refutes clips shown in the video, saying that the sights and sounds are taken out of context. He says that he was particularly triggered on one of those days while the other day contained, what he sees as, terrific content with all parties just having a great time. \u201cThis was one day worth of clips, by the way,\u201d summit said. \u201cMe and the guys were feeling fucking troll-y and having a good time crapping on people. People were talking shit to us, we were talking shit back. Thought that was fun\u201d Although the Seas of Thieves developers have an actual written Pirate\u2019s Code for their community to keep in mind, summit agreed with his chat that the code serves \u201cmore like guidelines, anyway.\u201d Summit is in talks with Rare Studios to be a part of a sponsored event, to which the streamer says should still happen at his disclosure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
