Game Discussion / FeralHeart and social skills
« on: November 18, 2018, 08:50:45 pm »
(I wasn't sure if this would go under Forum or Game Discussion, but I figured it had more to do with the game, so yeah )
So, I think it's safe to assume that a lot of the people on here are introverts. Some may even have full-on social anxiety (heyo! *raises hand*). Whatever the case, a lot of us find a safe social outlet here, both in-game and on the forum. But I've been wondering, what other benefits could we be taking away from this community? I guess what I'm asking is:
For me personally, I'd say yes. I mean, I'm still pretty reserved, but I think FeralHeart has helped teach me how to be a little bolder in initiating conversations with people I don't know. And, when I do initiate a conversation, I've found it easier to settle on a topic that interests both of us. These improvements have been subtle, but they're definitely there. So, have you guys had similar experiences?

Do you think FeralHeart has improved your real-life social skills?
