This is one tone deaf article.
Basically it is "remember the good old days when we used to talk to strangers over voice chat and made new friends"
It never actually worked that way. You know what voice chat in games was like? It was misogynistic, sexist, homophobic and generally toxic as hell. Voice chat has never been a pleasant experience for an awful lot of people. #Gaming #VideoGames #Multiplayer

  It Used to Be One of the Main Ways Men Talked to Each Other. Then Everyone Went Silent.
  from Luke Winkie
  I met some of my closest friends through multiplayer games. Then a strange happening turned everyone (literally) speechless.
