Agreed. When I pick up my controller, I want to be entertained through story and interaction, no matter how lame making friends with an NPC may seem to a lot of gamers. Therefore, the vast majority of my collection involves single player RPG's. I enjoy games that play like an interactive movie with a well written plot. Gaming time is fairy tale time to me. I don't want to be online getting sworn at by some semiliterate frat boy wanna-be who'd scuttle away and hide if asked to repeat his previous statement in person. Each to their own however. I just hope that developers keep on churning out story rich RPG's for gamers like me, and massive multiplayer experiences for those who enjoy that more. Choice, like diversity, is after all the spice of life.
