I’m a dnd fan, so ofc I played the MMO. Within the DND MMO, I had no harassment as a woman on a mic. In fact, it appeared as if ~50% of those playing and on mic were women. Granted, that was years ago. And maybe DND was, and is, a different scene.
Way back with vanilla and BC WOW, same though. No issues and lots of women playing. Self moderated social groupings, probably.
Granted, there was a social effect of 1 woman on a mic drawing out all the other women, a social permission & safety element.
No idea what it is now though, I’m too old for it now. If it’s rampant with harassment, that’s just sad, for everyone.

Never played anything like call of duty, so idk, my experience is limited.
You would think, because we live in a society, it would just be cool like that.

Experienced it in Helldivers 2, rocket league, cs:go, Sea of Thieves…
