I was thinking today that I must be the most anti-social gamer ever, because even in games where it's way easier/better to group up, I like to play alone. I don't ever call for help in Dark souls or even use summons etc, and in MMO's I usually lose interest once they force you to start grouping.

Then I realized, I actually ENJOY talking about a game I am playing with others, using chat in Path of Exile for instance etc, I just don't like actually PLAYING with them. I like to deal with challenges on my own, not as part of a group. I also don't like non-turn based group/squad based games even if I control everyone.

The thing is, I don't think it's really that rare, I see other people asking about solo options all the time in MMO's etc, yet so many games make group play a huge part of their goals.

What is your feeling on playing games by yourself or with others? I did enjoy it when young with games like Doom and with groups of friends but as an adult it's pretty much all been solo for me by choice.
