I guess no matter how humans are organized they tend to fight a lot... Or maybe interaction breeds drama? It's strange to me but I'm sure it felt right in the moment.

Singleplayer / offline games are great for having a good time. You can see some great stories, play some engaging mechanics, and think about hard questions. Singleplayer games are great!
