It's just more extreme than console shooters because there is big money involved.The problem is that PC gamers make newcomers to games like this feel very unwelcome. Once people find out you are new they harass the shyt out of you for sucking and then kick you off the game/server. They aren't going to try and teach you shyt or help you get accustomed to the game.
In a game like this where the learning curve is already steep as fukk being harassed every step of the way isnt the way to get casuals to jump in. And unlike most games, when you getting your ass kicked in a MOBA there isn't any fun to be had. At least in Halo I can suck but still have fun messing around and getting absurd random kills.
So I'm playing a game for a year and a half, I'm horrible, getting shat on and harassed, and few people are trying to help me. Why do I want any part of that?
They benefit for being like this to newcomers...they don't want any potential threats.
