Poll of the Day > 2/12 wow. gamefaqs users are very introvert.

(+) Yeah! (+)

pretty much half of every user here hates doing things with people, kinda makes me sad..

i voted for playing with significant other/wife
---

I'm an introvert and I voted for playing with my wife. I don't think you can just ratchet all those responses up to introversion. Often, people who believe they are introverted actually aren't (or maybe they are, but that isn't the primary reason for their social isolation). Other behavior factors such as shyness and social anxiety come into play very often.
---

The games I play are typically 1 player games, mainly Fallout and The Elder Scrolls.
I spend time with people doing other activities.

-The wording of the poll states that 54% of voters prefer to play games alone, not that they hate playing games with anyone else
-The poll is specifically about playing games, and says nothing about any other activities
-There isn't really a third point, but this post just looks better with three bullets
---

i notice most people that dont like playing multiplayer belong to the sony consoles, it kind of makes sense because when im on my ps4, no one really interacts or does anything, but when im on my xbox, theres constantly people on my friends list wanting to group up and play
---

I didn't really see the last option as being "I prefer playing alone to playing with others" so much as "there is no one in particular that I enjoy playing with more than anyone else".

in my case, I *vastly* prefer playing alone, but voted that my favorite person to play with is sibling (though these days it's actually my nephew, but "a family member" is noticeably lacking from the poll).

All of this, tbh. Especially the third bullet.

It was then that I realized you were just trolling the whole time.... and, after seeing the "Zelda sucks" profile photo (seriously, who do you think you are? Allstarsniper or something?), I feel even more confident in that assessment.

I think that would have gone under the 4th bullet of someone. Possibly...

im not trolling... you are just getting triggered through projections and insecure assumptions.

all i did was make an observation.

How sad that people want to live life their own way!

Missed voting in it, but kinda hard to choose an option if I had.

On the one hand...
- I'd always choose playing with my wife and/or best friend since childhood if I could; they always make games more enjoyable

On the other hand:
- Most of the games I like are single player only (RPGs, Platinum action games, etc...)
- My wife seldom wants to play video games and my best friend lives far away now

"Being single" and "being an introvert" aren't really related. I'm not sure you know what an introvert is.

Yes, some genres are single-player only and logistically only work as a single-player game.

Which is a trollish defense. And, I should add, all I did was make a series of observations.

Typically, I like playing games by myself as the majority of games I play are more story-based or dont feature multiplayer functionality at the time.

I have no problem playing games with others, however, theres select games I enjoy playing with others. These are games like Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, GTA Online, Rust, and Terraria. I dont like playing RTS games like DOTA2 or LoL, nor do I enjoy first person shooters like Call of Duty or ARMA.

Yes, some genres are single-player only and logistically only work as a single-player game. So genre preference has a bigger impact than merely wanting to play with other people and, it should be noted, that there are certainly plenty of introverts into multiplayer games.

those werent observations, they were defensive reactions because i called you out as a introvert, and you must be ashamed of it pretty badly for me to be getting such a lashed out/passive aggressive response.

I used to play games with my s/o all the time from about 2005 through 2008. It just fizzled because she got tired of shooters.
