Non- gamers often say that gamers are unsocial people. Not true. Of course it is not a very social activity like hanging out with friends. But the popularity of multiplayer games goes to emphasize on the social factors.
Increasing role-playing has reduced the barriers between the players with others. Now a gamer can connect with another gamer at any part of the world. You can be a friend or a complete stranger it doesn't matter. So if you are a social recluse take heart.
For you could be miles apart, but still playing the game together, since the gulf between the gamer and the virtual world is almost non-existent.
Even if you are a loner, indie-games can relieve you of your boredom. The games are tightly constructed. Also the content is such that you are not left talking to yourself. -- Although, some people like to talk to themselves!
However indie-games are not claustrophobic. They give you a chance to speak, you are an active listener not a passive one. We know that people do not like to sit and listen. So indie games will compel you to play since interaction is a top priority in our list.
Look at the past. The board games that you played on a rainy day were also very interactive. But they were closed games. There were these fixed set of rules. The tools were limited to cards, dices etc. Even after so many years, those games may use different designs, but the basic concepts are unchanged. You don't seem to have much of a choice there.
The interaction quotient work best when you are not aware. That you are actually being interactive and you connect to indie games effortlessly.
And as your skills increase you can play more complex games that need extra dedication. You will find that gamers increase the popularity of games simply by the word of mouth. That is why we do not sell clones. Our games are original and they compel you to play because playing them becomes an enjoyable experience.
