摘要
The process of massive multiplayer online gamers and their social environment is analyzed in this context. Video games offer a platform for players to develop essential social and emotional skills with online gamers, such as predicting behaviors, providing support, and building relationships. Gaming serves as a communication channel, and games played in groups promote increased socialization instead of isolating individuals. Supporting each other during gameplay strengthens friendships, and MMOs ensure that ties with old friends are not broken. Multiplayer games can help players form lasting social connections and memories by fostering a positive and enjoyable gaming experience. Through shared experiences, players can form close bonds and support each other in difficult situations. Online gaming enables individuals who have never met face-to-face to establish strong and meaningful friendships. Players may be meticulous when recruiting people to their group to ensure that they are skilled, friendly, trustworthy, and will enhance their gaming experience.
