I avoid online games all together for this reason

Rocket League is alright so long as you can manage getting spammed WHAT A SAVE repeatedly after getting scored on.

Yeah I know a lot of people will just turn chat off for that reason.

It got so bad there's even a setting now to disable "nonessential" quick chats, so things like "what a save!" and "whew" don't display

Try out pve and coop games or game modes, they are usually more chill. Or find yourself a friend group who will be down for some coop and private games.
