Single-player games feel too lonely”. 3: Blue guy puts on gamer headset “that’s why I only play MULTIPLAYER games”. 4: Blue guy happily at his PC, while tweaking his game settings Voice Chat: OFF, Text Chat: OFF, Friend Requests: OFF.

One of them has real people acting like real players, the other has brain dead pants on head “AI” characters.
The comic is dumb for many reasons. No one who claims they play multiplayer because they’re more social then goes and blocks all social stuff. Most people play multiplayer because they want to play with/against other real people because that’s where the challenge and fun is.
