The "social" aspect of multiplayer video games is an unhealthy society, totally [ structured to get people to play and pay ]( http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/aug/01/what-would-social-video-games-look-like-gamers ) . While we have seen such things before, such as shopping malls as places to hang out, and the increasing number of holidays structured around socially-pressured gift-giving, they do involve a lot of social interaction on which no structure is imposed. This is a change for the worse; it could be producing millions of people who don't interact with their "friends" outside of the imposed structure.
