But I have no desire to speak to them every second I sign on, nor do I feel a need to comment on their games unless it's absolutely necessary (e.g, is game X good?) I guess it's because I prefer single player games over Multi so I tend not to ask for "matchups" but hey, it seems I'm in the minority these days with that mentality. |
I wasn't tryign to suggest you didn't have friends online, but simply that you haven't maybe used cross game chat with them in it's most practical sense. Obviously most people don't want to speak with their friends every second - the point I made was simply that with a few buttons, you're friends can all be together, and you can decide to play a game, how long until they're ready, if they're available, etc. And then with 1 more button press, they're all invited to the same match.
It doesn't require you to talk with them "every second" but it's far faster an easier than trying to use a console's text communication, or sending voice messages to person after person. It's quick, it's easy, and enables you to coordinate with people as if they're in the same room.
But yes, if you prefer single player games, then it's entirely unnessecary for you.
