    add an illusion of company

    Now this part I personally dislike; if it feels like but is not actually building my social connectivity, then I think that’s better to avoid, emotionally speaking. I try to scratch that itch by watching friends personally stream titles, or by being the streamer for private circles of mostly/only people I know IRL. We also play a lot on Board Game Arena.

      Well, my friends don’t stream and I sleep at weird hours. I don’t have a ton of good alternatives, and it’s not like I’m participating in chat or donating lots of money.
