Multiplayer is antithetical to immersion for me. Im not an RP guy and some wacko yelling slurs over the mic isnt going to help me forget im playing a video game
Not all multiplayer is match made or even public. Lots of games can benefit from 1 or 2 good friends to play with.
Sure but my buddy cracking jokes about work is just as immersion-breaking. Multiplayer is fun, but thats not the point i was making.
Just need a group that can roleplay ¯\_༼ •́ ͜ʖ •̀ ༽_/¯
