Not sure about whether anyone needed an excuse, but yeah. Gaming is social. It’s funny how some people don’t really know, and think about gamers “isolated in their rooms playing video games!” when it is often a very social activity.

Not disagreeing with anything you've said but I think the Tweet was meant to be taken with a little tongue-in-cheek attitude.

I get that. I was just commenting on a related side issue about people who don’t get that games are also communication platforms.
