The Solo disease?

[Bled]

Then I retract my reply, though I have no answer to your comment as I do not see how it relates to the topic at hand.


I may have been a little harsh in my reply, sorry. To interact with them socially, and enjoy their company socially, does not mean form an official game mechanic group to play the game with.


Oh I love it. Though its not quite my reasoning for solo play, it does contribute. I love being in a party where they tell me exactly how I should play my job, exactly what skills to use, at exactly what time. I might as well be a bot


My OP was not an opinion piece. I stated that me, and other soloists, solo because we enjoy it. The post was about the reason that I solo. And the reason is fact, not opinion. The fact that I enjoy soloing is not open to opinion. You cannot disagree and say that no, I (as in me) do not enjoy soloing (which would be the dissenting or opposite opinion of my OP). The thread was hijacked by those who thought that I was expressing an opinion about soloing being better than grouping, or (as the thread goes on, any number of things, including my supposed "made up" demands for the game to change!) I know I argue semantics, but its important when the whole intent of my OP can change based on a few key ideas. I do not claim that soloing is better than grouping, or that anything is better than anything else. Just that I personally love to solo and I do it as a choice, as do most of my MMORPG playing friends. We do, its true.

Not that I mind the derailment really. I like to have discussions, I just want the record straight for what my OP intended, and that was simply to say that all soloists are not soloing as our only option, we (at least a lot of us, I cannot speak for everyone) are doing it because we enjoy it.

"I stated that me, and other soloists, solo because we enjoy it" your opinion is not the opinion of every "soloist", i still call your post an opinion because you label your self in a sub group and claim to have the same view as everyone in said group, with no real way to validify that claim.

using your same argumentative tactics above Opinion: a personal view, attitude, or appraisal. Stating that you and a group of people (which is an inference in and of itself) are soloists and that you enjoy final fantasy for is solo content and solo possibilities is in and of it self a view or opinion, thus making your post a opinion piece.

"Then I retract my reply, though I have no answer to your comment as I do not see how it relates to the topic at hand."

You stated that an MMORPG does not need to have partying in order for it to be massively multiplayer, and i sir stated that i disagree. disagreeing is again not considered off topic.
