Do you feel lonely while playing single player games?

Hi everyone.

So, I have tons of games in my Steam and Epic accounts, but i only proper finished maybe 4 or 5 games. There are games that i bought over a decade ago, but i still haven’t played it yet.

I really want to play these games, but many times i end up unninstaling it after few hours of gameplay, mostly cause i feel lonely. It’s sad to play all that cool stuff but there is no one around to share with you all that experience and fun.

90% of the all playtime i had in my life was at online games, i think. Maybe because of this i can’t fully enjoy single player games.

Anyone else feels that too? How do you deal with it?

No, I actually prefer single player games. Especially good indy games. I generally avoid AAA multibillion dollar :poop:.

Dead Estate beats WoW any day IMHO.

The only problem with those good single player indy games is that they end. And then I come back to WoW lol

You could stream them to your friends in discord. Could generate a discussion and maybe some more fun as they participate.

I’ve both streamed by games and participated by watching people. My friends streamed Classic for 4 hours and I lay in bed and chin-wagged with them.

I love single player games. Being alone in Valheim for 750 hours was bliss.

Currently playing Dragon Quest XI.

No.

Wut?

I’m definitely not the type of person who likes to appear and speak to an audience. :sweat_smile: :confounded:

Also, i have only one friend interested in games, but he is a hardcore gamer, he prefer to spend his limited time actally playing and not watching others :joy: . But we play together when i go to his home, sometimes.

Given how many people pug in wow I’d say we collectively love single player games.

Who needs friends when you have randos and AI?

Never! I much prefer playing alone.

Funny enough i was just thinking about this this very morning.

I like single player games. I enjoy them. And i play them over and over again.

I would love a single player version of WoW. Think it would be killer.

But playing WoW solo (avoiding group content) drives me up a wall lol

I know that is weird, because i don’t like to play alone, but at same, time i have difficult to communicate with pre organized groups like gilded and discord groups.

That is why i like wow. I can play with other people but in a casual level, like Dungeon and raid finders, and casualy joining force to complete some open world activities.

I can yack on guild discord while playing single player games, so no.

Not lonely, but I have a harder time getting immersed in single player worlds. They feel more disposable. it’s the persistent lived-in world that attracts me to MMOs more than any actual social interaction.
