Gaming Socially?

<< < (2/2)

Alkaline:
Oh man. All those old memories from playing on the zombie survival server. Juan...

I also do think that social interaction in games has lessened because of the fact you are talking with complete strangers.

HideoKojima:
I'd say gaming socially is more popular than ever. Feel like it really exploded with the first xbox.

Though in my opinion. I don't think that making online friends is really needed/should happen, cause in the end, it's kinda pointless because the people/group of people will eventually all disconnect from each other, because that's how life is.

Not saying online friends is bad, more saying if someone is asked to hang out in the real life, and also asked to play a game with a friend online, they really should do the first one.

Astropilot:
If you stick in one server for a long time you can meet some friends in that group. Basically that's how I got to RND.

Devie:
In terms of meeting new people, naw man. We meet new people almost everyday and encounter them everyday. They join our mumble everyday and its up to them if they decide to stay or not. Its just that all the regular-goers of mumble will be dicks to the new people causing them to leave etc. Now if you cool as fuck, then yeah they'll treat you as if you're a friend and it starts from there.

We usually play games together, and its certainly a great tool for socializing and shit. Digital games come and go but the memories stay. Especially since we never play a big game without having 15+ good friends playing alongside you. That team work, that bonding, those laughs. It's great.

Gaming socially has evolved so much in my opinion. Several of us have met eachother in real life already and it all started with gaming. Hell, we all pitched in to rent a big house for a week in 3 months up in Boston and we're all staying there together, all 20 of us. So yes, I think gaming socially can provide you doors that you never thought existed or you'd never think in your life you'd do.

It's one thing I'm thankful for.

It all depends on the people you happen to play with.. I've been lucky enough to run into rNd and made friends with the majority of the GMod crew.. if any of you guys know of Elric Phares from ex-motherboards.org / tech of tomorrow youtube channel, I became friends with his son via social gaming and am now friends with Elric - got 'em both into GMod ;p
