So this is gonna be kinda odd so I apologize in advance if some of you find it annoying.
So from the bottom of my heart I am an mmo junkie. Mmos are the only games that i have ever found a feeling of fulfillment and true fun in.
That aside, I have always loved ffxiv, but I have never been able to make friends in it and find that sense of feeling and companionship I have in other objectively less good games. It doesn't help that a few times I have really tried to dive in fully I've done so with irl friends who cannot keep playing a game for the life of them. In fact I did this a few weeks ago and they invited someone to play with us that was so annoying to talk to it actually made me not even want to launch the game since then.
I'm aware that if I want to truly make friends and have a fulfilling time in the game, that I will have to face playing alone at first. I'm not as good at making friends as I used to be and it sounds kinda scary to do that right now. So I guess what I'm asking essentially is, has anyone wo may be reading this had a similar experience, where you want to invest yourself so much but then the actions of others just make you drift away from a game? Or the fear of solo playing and not being able to make friends disheartened you.
I feel strange and awkward for writing this but I'm looking for some kind of inspiration to step back into this world again. Thanks in advance!
