You must really have to love what you do to be a game developer. Spending 13 to 14 hours a day working on a game barely seeing your friends and family has to be tough. A lot of hard work goes into making these games.  So you can only imagine the frustration and demoralizing feeling a dev gets when they look on the Internet to see thousands of people shitting all over their hard work. 

Look I understand that their line of work is entertainment so theres bound to be people who dont like your product.But theres a line between constructive criticism and downright hate. Look at games like Titanfall, Destiny or even Watch Dogs. Yes those games were not as good as they could of been but they weren't absolute garbage. Imagine that youre a game dev and you look at feedback from your game only see "This is the worst shit ever they should die for making this" or "Fuck this game and fuck the developers for making this horseshit"

I know if I was seeing that constantly 24/7 and not constructive feedback id quit too.

Do you think the internet gaming community is killing the morale of game designers?

Industry made by criticism, they selling product to consumer, if people don't like then they will not buy. And they should be happy we still care with their product by giving some input. 

I live and and worked in Hospitality Industry so input like comment, " complain " and request is actually help you better and know what costumer needs and wants.

the same goes with every industry, including video games Industry. Constructive or not is a risk in every job and thats why you can train your mental in real life.
