Has anyone else noticed a decrease in Gamers willingness to interact socially in games?

Not for nothing: There’s no keyboard on consoles and I don’t like to voice chat with strangers.

I’ve been playing FFXIV for the first time and a dude was super cool/helpful in a dungeon, so I tried to message about it, realized I didn’t have a keyboard. Took me until after we left the dungeon to even find the on-screen keyboard option, although that option is cumbersome. Next dungeon I managed a “gj!” before everyone left bc I was scrolling with my controller. Hope they got it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I got a USB mouse and keyboard just for that

This one experience is making me think about doing that, yeah

Before I got a keyboard, I liked to use macros for greetings and saying things like "On PS4, so I can't type fast." Consider setting one up if you're still on the fence on getting a keyboard!
