The silent player explained
Many of us have played online games. Even more of us play them with the intent of socializing during the game with our fellow players.
However, there is another group of online gamers, the mute ones.
Ars Technica’s Opposable Thumbs journal has an interesting post concerning the online gamer segment that just wants to play against a human. They don’t have any interest in interacting outside of the regular game play itself.
I wonder how many gamers there are out the like this. Is there a market for a service that caters to those who only use the online games and online components to garner non-AI opponents?
