Back when I wasted money on games, I bought shit like Garry’s Mod, PUBG, Rust, etc. because I knew some people who played it and thought we could play together.
It never happened.
So they’re collecting dust in my library and now I only play single player games
Yeah, a couple I think
The Forest, we got together with a few guys, everyone played the game before but me, so everyone (but one) tried to show me the ropes and not to spoil anything about the game. We got into a cave and a guy from our group started running killing every enemy by himself, then he rushed to a certain spot where he knew there was a powerful weapon. Everyone got mad and we stopped playing after one session.
Valheim, same dude, he hosted the server and played by himself when we were all away from our computers. When we logged in he already built houses, forges, docks and so on. We got frustrated and stopped player after two sessions.
ArmA 3, for some reason two friends of mine decided to play a milsim, they played two or three times together and "convinced" me to buy the game. I did, we never played.
I do feel guilty about this one, but a friend of mine always blames me for making him buy Space Engineers to play together and we never did, we both have the game but I feel SE is a fantastic yet super overwhelming game, I don't feel like thinking too much, I don't feel like learning my way into a rather complex game anymore.
