Massively Non-multiplayer

Got plenty of friends. Glad I don’t need, or depend on a videogame to have, or make friends :coffee: People I might chat with in game are an acquaintance, and nothing more than that.

Lol yea, but I also understand why people are hesitant to even try to talk anymore, as the risk outweighs any possible reward now. Just depressing I suppose. Not everyone is mean, or cares entirely about the game. Most of the best people you’ll ever meet are people who are too timid or cautious to talk.

yeah. Game needs more open world content tuned and advertised as group content, and fewer rewards from queue content.

I want server merges, shards gone, and cracking down on LFG groups ruining all group content by mass inviting/afking/camping. Server repercussions for being a terrible human, can’t just phase into the ether, and also community building. Especially for Sparks, if you’re a spark farming without actually playing, I have opinions about you I won’t share.

Given the attitude and general personality you’ve put on display here OP, it’s not that surprising you’re having a hard time making friends.

There’s plenty of people out there. I have to push people away constantly, I don’t have time for more friends.

Be friendly, make friends. Same as always.

I respect your feedback <3 Ty.

No, I’m not here trying to make friends with people. If a friendship forms between a random person and myself, cool… plus I’m pretty cynical.

I’ve also been playing with the same people for 15+ years and I can talk to them in ways I can’t talk in game, so that’s a strike against WOW’s in-game communication.

I do agree, at the same time I am completely guilty of it (not making any effort for friending).

The risk is largely exaggerated, unless you are a person that wants to constantly talk in specific ways.

But arent you just complaining about how no one can talk?

I feel completely rejected meow. We could have had something special.

I think I make friends on forum, some people I would consider friends I met on the forum but I don’t do almost anything with anybody in game. They probably think I am ghosting them but really I just want to chat with them on the forum :cat:

and that’s a big problem for many, myself included, the whole concept that if someone is offended by a joke or something said, they can get you banned… instead of them just ignoring you and everyone moves forward like an adult. No reason to risk your account over someone being overly sensitive.

The key to comedy has always been to know your audience.

I don’t subscribe to that at all because you have to test the waters, you don’t know what people like and if people can’t be mature enough to not let a joke offend them, that’s THEIR problem and they’re trying to make it mine or whoever it may be’s problem… so trying to make friends is not in the cards for most players while IN GAME… because they can’t talk how they’d like to, because everyone is getting offended too easily and thrive of getting people banned.

My best friend in the game, who used to log in everyday with me passed away 4 years ago. I have not been able to find anyone like her that wants to play with me like she did.

I miss her so much. RIP Ghosty

That hit me, I feel that. I’m sure the memories you hold are amazing, and we’re lucky to have such people in our lives, if even for a moment. <3

I’m sorry dude, that’s rough and it can really throw you into a dark place. I lost one of closest friends about 3 years ago now and knowing that the memories ended there is one of the hardest things to deal with… I hope you found peace in it all and there was no suffering on their part.

How does making friends relate to whether a game is multiplayer or not? Multiplayer is just that more than one person is playing the game, not that they’re also friends…

You know that statement boils down to “others aren’t mature because I want to break the rules I agreed to”

I didn’t mean it like, be friends with me!, I more meant people don’t even talk, let alone open a chance to maybe make a friend. If people are trying to be social, most people just aren’t. It’s ok, not judging, I more wonder what changed in people. It’s just nostalgic heartbreak for how MMOs used to be, you’d log in and be excited to meet new people. Now I guess people just want a SP/OnlyfriendsMP game. Connecting isn’t an objective anymore.
