I deleted my Discord, I have had myself almost excusively set to invisible on steam now for a couple of years. I just want to be alone anymore. Anyone else get like this?
Have been for almost 15 years. Except I don't mind Discord and I'll do a little thirst posting on f-list but yeah basically.
>>735057006i hate the social obligation of playing games I'm not too keen on because the rest of my friends want to play and also having to play regularly lest I get left behind
>>735057006not really, i still talk to some of the people i've met online. probably would play stuff with them too, if only developers still made games worth playing
>>735057006been that way for the last 12 years
>>735057006>i just want to be alone>hey anyone here? >hello?>hello im telling you how alone i want to be.

for me, it's that I want to control my time and I realized hanging out with people means I am giving away my time to themwhich is cool sometimes but not all the time, now that it is a limited resource
I've never used discord and I was already done with highschool by the time TF2 released and all the kiddies started using Steam so I have no friends there. Thanks for asking.
>>735058401Are you like 50?
>>735060102No. I'm a little older than moot but younger than lowtax and Hiro. Thanks for reading and asking.
>>735057006I became like this 4 years ago. I don't enjoy playing vidya with other people at all anymore.
>>735057006No not really. Although I do appear offline on PSN so people won't know that I'm a NEET. I'll usually wait until 2-3PM to SOMETIMES appear offline. I fucking hate dog shit fucking games that show your online status even if you're appearing offline. Devs that do that are literal fucking niggers.
>>735063171Fuck I'm retarded, I meant I wait around that time to appear online. But sometimes I'll go 6-7 months not appearing online at all. I also do it so people won't spam me invites to games I'm not currently playing.
>>735058401Same
>>735057006I am modding single player games again, again. The only multiplayer game I can tolerate anymore is Left 4 Dead 2 because I can run admin commands on a local server. Being able to kick/ban/grief trolls is nice.
>>735057006pretty much the same, except minecraft where our friend group has its own server, but it's not very active. At peak time there are about 3 of us playing. otherwise everyone just logs on when they can, build a bit, then later we just show the builds off to one anotherI wanted to get back into wow, but I have no time to play normally. sometimes i can't play for a week or two, so if I were to play on a real server with real people, grouping up with some peeps, they'd be far ahead of me the next time I am able to log on.So instead, I started hosting my own private server with bots. Most fun I had in ages honestly. I just host the server whenever I can play and the bots are right as I left them so I'm not getting left behind in leveling and etc.
I feel like I really developed some schizoid disorder because I used to like playing with friends, now its exhausting and i prefer spending time alone
>>735057006Recently broke myself out of my loop and I regret it slightly, if it wasn't for my artfag pal I would probably delete everything again
>>735057006I'm the opposite, I only play video games with friends, never alone
Yes but I am schizoid, I am perfectly content with myself and don't need IRL relationships to feel not lonely. Being able to interact with others online is okay because it's very low-commitment.
Anon broke my heart and I can't bring myself to forgive you.
>>735057006Yep, I have to deal with people at work, and after that I just want to be left alone.>>735058302 nailed it, I want to do things on my own terms, when I feel like it, not when others feel like I should be doing them. This includes playing vidya.
I've always been aloneHate co-op only games and friendslop
>>735057006I wish I had online pals to play vidya with but am too retarded to make friends so I always end up playing alone
I play mostly single player games. The bros will hop from one shooter to another and I just can't be bothered to keep up.
>>735057006>I just want to be alone>make a thread talking about how they just want to be alone
>"gaming alone" thread>seeking validation from othersnani
>>735057006>cut yourself off from the systems>you don't exist anymore
>>735057006Pretty much.I was on a discord for a while, but it got overrun with sociopath zoomers and those fucks are just a bunch of snakes, so I deleted it and I'm much happier now. 4chan is the only socialization I bother with outside of work (which is also online), and it's all anonymous which is fine by me.
i haven't had a friend since 2012, when school ended.
