Other people were the one thing I hated about MMOs. I just want to enjoy a massive fantasy world with no definitive end to it. But people kept being... well... people. Every time I had to deal with others, the immersion was broken. Most people were there to play the game, not appreciate it.
Even on RPG servers, it was hard to find anyone who wanted to explore the world and enjoy the setting. Everyone wanted shortcuts to fly through quests, dungeons, raids, etc. as quickly as they could. They just wanted to level up fast and min/max their stats, weapons, and armor build. People would genuinely get mad at me if I didn't play a certain way, or understand how a boss fight works, even though it's my first time in that dungeon. I'd need to do online research before entering a raid or dungeon with a party, and that just ruins the enjoyment of discovering a new challenge.
Even "newbie-friendly" guilds, which claimed to be more immersive and helpful for exploring and leveling, would either require regular engagement with scheduled guild activities to stay a member, or they would be dead, with almost no one online to play with at any given time.
And that's just allies. If you're playing a game with PvP, then you had to worry about being ganked out in the open. I could be out soloing a quest and suddenly a player just attacks out of the blue. Now it's a game of survival and I'm already at a disadvantage. It's either fight a losing battle or hope to run and hide.
Screw people. I prefer playing solo in MMOs. Just leave me alone to enjoy the game at my own pace.
Tried osrs ironman mode? Great experience
Heck yeah! It was pretty much the only way I could play RuneScape.
