How it's REALLY like to be a solo player in SKY: CotL

I won't post very often
Thank you for watching!

[@kikyozoldyck7872]

to be honest i have to admit being a solo player is actually pretty lonely and id always see unlit players always coming in groups and chat a lot *sob* im fine-

[@samm5511]

I relate so much to this, it feels so lonely when u see others hang out in groups and chat :( im always open for new friends if you'd like, i light my friends everyday and warp to them :)

[@KatherineSinahon]

Aaaaaa same! i will do solo runs peacefully and when a group of friends or a pair pass by, i always think "aaa, must be nice" hahaha

[@Zul_H]

yea me too i wish i was a solo player too lonely is something, dealing with fake friends is another thing,, i wish i could be solo player again,

[@nothin.1099]

Once I come across a bunch of unlit players and just hang around them doing emotes acting dramatic then they came back to hold my hand in the end. Wholesome stuff.

[@skye387]

I don't even see any other players sometimes, as if I'm alone in that world .-.

To all musicians in Sky… please let me sit with you and listen to you play. It makes me feel less alone.

[@ketupatkacang]

As a musician (though I'm still a beginner), I appreciate others listening to me playing 😊 and I'm sure most musician didn't mind this too (unless they're in secluded place, indicating that they wanted to be alone). Also being a solo player is tough. It took me at least 2 months to get out of my shell and makes some nice friends, mostly in Valley and Gw. All I could say is never be too afraid to reach out/chat and make new friends! Don't ever lose hope^^ Sorry for this wall of texts but I hope you can create great memories with friends in Sky

[@Kixx_KG]

@@ketupatkacang Thank you for the kind words. ☺

[@xanthus1018]

Tldr: We like it when others listen 💚 I know I'm very late on this, but I just joined sky a few weeks ago! After getting my very first instrument (which is a harp) I knew that playing music there would be one of the things I would do. I'm still a beginner tho and I usually try to recreate songs without seeing the music sheet (idk how to explain it properly but this means I guess the note of the song am trying to play, if that makes more sense). Anyway, so what am trying to say, if u don't mind mistakes and all feel free to join me. When am done doing cr/wlr I just play music in random places. And like what @nis6948 said, I'm sure every sky musician likes it when others listen to them play

[@RaspberryRose_777]

I had one player sit with me for what could have actually been two hours while I was practicing learning a new song. 😊 And never once did they fall asleep. Lol, I screwed up many parts, but at least I've learned abt 40 seconds of the 1:30 min long video I'm learning from. 😅

There was this one player i met at the home area tht had the same outfit as me, i just reborn and was about to go out for wl. She followed me for a map and waved goodbye 🥲

[@Zul_H]

it is okay to be a solo panyer, if you have friends, you dont know is they are fake friends or scammer, or toxic friends or firendzone one and great friends. i have seen alot of all of the above, yeah so please don't feel bad is you still solo in the game..this is form my experience since i join sky in dream season

[@skye387]

The problem with playing solo....is not being able to do friend-specific daily quests.

yeah after you did everthing to your friend, they found another new friends, they will forget you and go away and ban you too, hey it happen to me so many time, but dont worry i okay, just like a saying friends come and go only a few you should hold on too, and try make a new friend on the way believe me new friends will heal you lost one, like i did

[@nyashykyun]

Fr, It's so hard being a solo player. Watching veterans or moths just vibe with eachother makes me really jealous. Especially when they go in large groups. When I see players like those I sit down and just watch them, wondering what would it be like to play with someone like that and playing around the emotes

[@Zul_H]

hey it is okay my friend i know you felling same as mine too, but you have to remember there are a lot of fake friends and good friends out there, i've experience it all since i started the game back in dream season, don't make it bad on your self, just enjoy the game at your on pace, like me i have a friend who love me for playing emotes one day that friends say no to emote and block me form her side..so yeah every things have it pro and cons. and you just enjoy the game on yourself, hey even i have my friends did that to me a lot in the game, it never will break me to quit the game, lesson learn and move on that what keep me motivated to play this game every single day i logged in 😘🥰

[@shafaazizah3595]

I do have lots of friends in Sky. Many of them are nice, and I do consider them as best friends ‘til we wanted to meet irl. But as someone who is overly sensitive in personality, or having some kind of social anxieties and concerns because of the worst experience with strangers, I consider my relationship with my Sky friends is somehow toxic. So yeah, it is not always like what people expected. One thing again, imagine that you have a close, dear friend in Sky, a candle run partner for example that stopped playing Sky and you cannot contact him/her anywhere because of privacy reasons….that would be so painful. So now I prefer to be a solo player more. Therefore… to the maker of this video, I hope you get a decent friendship in Sky, because everyone deserves it.

[@nighttone2265]

omg i got so emotional you are so right ;(

[@tia-na5449]

that's right. Friendship in sky is not the same like the friendship irl. It's very different and we have to adjust to it so that we can be happy with the friendship .. My besties in sky stopped playing too and I don't have her contact . At first, I'm really sad I almost cry hahah (she's very nice and we really clicked together) but I'm okay now , I've met lots of other friends who are very nice too.

[@JT-fc9ri]

​@@tia-na5449 I couldn't agree more with you. it's just not the same as with friendship irl. The trick is, not to over invest yourself in online friendship especially games. It saves you from heartache when they leave. I've had my share of heartaches xD Used to play games like Ragnarok online waaay back (real server, and lots of private server) you can imagine the amount of close friends i made through each of them, only to lose them when we go our separate ways. I guess I've grown numb over time. But i also learn to "live the moment". What I mean is, i appreciate, cherish, and love the time i spend with my online friends, but i wont hold on to it when they eventually leave.

[@ashcybil9910]

I was kind of a solo player in the beginning. For at least a couple months. I made friends, but they never lasted long. But I made this friend, actually multiple, and we've been a big friend group for over a year now! I think the best way to start making friends in this game is being yourself. Express your humor! Some people may not get it, but it shows that you're comfortable. Showing confidence can help. Not like in an egotistical way. Show that you want to be friends. Ask them about their interests or hobbies and discuss yours own. Tell funny stories and be descriptive! I know that may sound kind of daunting, but it really expresses how and who you are as a person and it shows the other person that they can be comfortable around you, too. One day you'll meet someone who has the exact same humor as you or even other interests and you'll create a close bond. I have social anxiety irl, and I admit, it is so extremely difficult to make new friends. I was nervous to even sit on the bench to talk to strangers or to join others in the beginning. I slowly got used it though and it's easy for me to make friends now. But I think the number one thing that can help make friends is, low and behold, being kind. Alway be respectful and show that you care. If someone needs help, don't act stand offish. Help! Be understanding of their troubles, even if it's something stupid. We all just want a person that cares about us and that we know we can trust. It can be hard to find that certain someone, but you'll get there. Also, there is nothing wrong with being a solo player. Certain people just like to keep to themselves, and that is okay. This is just for people who maybe need a little push to be more open. Oh! Also another tip, maybe you already have a close friend you're comfortable with, but you would like to make more. Bring that friend with you! It's nice to have someone you can always fall back on and you'll be more comfortable bc you already have someone there that you can be yourself around, and that all in all can make you more confident.

i feel this too..once when I was bored and sat on a forest bench there was someone approaching me he was with his friends, I don't know what they were doing. I chatted with him for quite a while and finally the moment I can't forget start..." you have a lot of friends" I said "yep I have a lot of friends" he said "what's it like?" I said "well that's fun, I can play whenever I want but sometimes I feel bored With all these things I even want to be alone for one day, but it seems I can't because of my many friends I have to always accept their offer to play with them i feel really bad when i don't do that lol"he said"Why does it turn out that our situation is reversed lol!" I said "pardon?"he said "nothing" I continued. The conversation was fun even I wanted more but I can't , I'm not very good at speaking in front of people .Yep that's my story, I want to be in that position but i think i can't lol!.

[@eliiinapapugova5557]

I have friends but they 1. Run away from me 2. When I need help with anything they just randomly leave. I found perfect friend, but he was new and he stopped playing after his first eye of eden run ._.

[@Ruuiko]

I mean I can understand, once after Eden, there's really not many new stuff other than those seasonal emotes and cosmetics. The "the real journey starts here" thingie after reborn is a big fat lie, our journey already ended and we're continuing for seasons and endless amounts of candle runs for cosmetics, behind that peaceful look lies a sad truth. It was really unfortunate, I fell in love with this game and it actually game me deep feelings for once, in Sky, I felt so free and magical, however it might have been one of my fantasies starting to form. Sky friends are really no different than other friends, they leave at some point, you'll be lucky if your friend lasts for a decade irl

[@acemarketi6696]

Ayo I gotchu. I get distracted sometimes but I can help with things .

[@Zul_H]

well i have the same one as you too, but don't this things let you down my friend, i have a lot of friends who left me, if the feel bored of you, and left that is normal, we just have to accept it, that is life, no friends are the same, some are fake friends or friend zone, who take you for granted and if she /he bored of you they will leave you like i encounter so many time in my sky, you have to be strong to take it.. that why i saw many of the players quit the game because of friendship problems..so yeah my advice to you, don't quit and you feel lost instead let it be a lesson for you and keep playing the game even if you are solo back again and be happy, like me

[@kaleycooper9111]

If anyones looking for friends (and preferably uses PST), don’t hesitate to send me your discord name. I’m always open for friends and please, don’t feel embarrassed about teleporting in game. It doesn’t bother me and honestly, having people randomly joining me for cr’s is fun 😂

i always loved going to grandma's table because i can get to hug her.. being a solo player is sad! XD

[@Kate-dq3jp]

I’m a solo player for the most part. I get kinda awkward when I try to make friends in game/online. I see a lot of people chatting and having fun with people they have friended and made connections with and I always wanted to have a sky best friend or something. Non of my irl friends ever want to play since it can be a troublesome game at times so I don’t have any close close friends in game. So I started ubering. I offer Uber rides through discord and I always feel great helping someone, some people don’t chat and that’s fine, it at least gets me through the cr. Other people do chat and sometimes we will say high to each other and chat in home space or help each other out in quests. It’s not a perfect solution but it’s good enough for me. I love being someone people can ask for help from.

For me, I want to stay solo forever. Sky has always felt so peaceful, like an escape from reality, and I always feel like sharing that experience with others makes it feel less real. I’m generally antisocial, and I never really want attention or people to hang out with in the game. That’s how being a solo player works for me, and yes, I do sometimes get a bit lonesome, but never for very long.

This was beautifully done. 😊 As someone who started off as a solo player, I somehow ended up a pretty social player with the help of meeting a few extroverted friends who broke me out of my shell. Although I still prefer going solo sometimes when I want to be alone or in areas like Wasteland...I would hate to get anyone krilled by my fault. If you're still looking for a friend, I would love to be your Sky friend. You seem like a lovely person.❤

[@DZ-uw6lt]

Sometimes I wanna be a solo. heres why Pain of a social player summed up in one story according to my own experience warning: overly emotional, cringe. one day you decided to go to eden, and on the way to respawn you soar pass her/him; remembering all the happy times you've had together. The first time you met: "Hi, my name is _____, nice to meet you! I just joined this game and don't know much... Can we be friends?" You remember that time when you were a moth and they took care of you, took you on candle runs, the first song you learned and you cannot wait to play it to them, And you remember the promises you made to each other: "When I become an ikemen I will take you on candle runs!" Then it struck you: that you never fulfilled that promise. That the flow of time stretched you both so far away from each other. That you may have passed each other countless times not as friends, but as dark strangers. That the star you once looked upon with love and value will never lit up again. Your time together is up. And although your dignity would no allow it, although you still want to believe that it ended for the better, you whisper to nothing in particular. *"where are you my friend? I wish we could have the old times back. I wish I could have you back."* *"I miss you."* sorry for long comment hahaha

[@maeyo_]

Ngl I've been loving my solo play. I even practice flying in Eden alone. I do have a couple of friends, but we all do our own things. I like that we follow an unspoken rule that we don't just suddenly warp to each other and only chat and say hi when we're both at the same place and server. I'm content with that already.

[@moof3381]

I've had friends who do play sky, but they don't anymore because of school and such, to which I completely understand but, the more I play sky alone I end up feeling more depressed by it; Seeing other players either with their lover or friends, or just a group of people playing together, makes me think of the old times I use to play sky with everyone that I knew and it brings back good memories, but behind those good memories, always comes a broken and sad heart. I truly miss playing with people and being able to just enjoy a nice laugh or be able to get somewhere. Quest's were so much easier and such, don't get me wrong they offered to help, but do I really want them to log in only for that? anytime I watch them leave, I always get sad knowing that's the only reason why they'd ever get on; but their reasons on why they cant or some just don't have the motivation to play, are very understandable, just... feels lonely and still very, very upsetting for me, sense sky was a way I could escape and such. I always regret going to Wastelands/Daylight Prairie because you always see a group of friends their or something, I just always watch them have fun and such, again followed by that same sadness. Other people on sky had tried to become my friends, but I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but I'd prefer my closer friends and such, ones that I've known longer, I feel more comfortable with, plus it wouldn't be the same. Solo sky for me is very depressing and is one the reasons why I just want to quit sky.

[@samm5511]

Its okay to feel that way.... sadly, relationships in sky are often like that: u get friends, hang out and have fun for a long time until the friend takes a break from sky. Its pretty hard :(( Im online everyday if you ever need a sky frien :,))

[@avalon6193]

Well i am a solo veteran as well, i think i can call myself a veteran as I have been playing since enchantment. I wasn't lonely, actually I had a really good sky group and we lasted for so long until everyone of us had to leave because we got busy and stuff came up. I stopped playing regularly from the season of abyss, after that most of my friends, me included couldn't play sky even if we wanted to because of our work or our life. But the most important realisation is that at some point of time sky will become a place to experience the past nostalgic moments, and i sure had my best days of playing sky together with friends. Now i play alone sometimes just to do the quests or help out moths, or any other player. I meet people most of the time, but i can't be real close to them because I can't play more often than I used to. So don't worry if you're a solo player, just enjoy it till you have enough time to spare and play.

[@ketupatkacang]

A big hug for you from someone who's also a solo player :') I downloaded this game last December, messed around for a week or two, made a few moth friends who i got to spend time with for maybe 10 minutes each, but then I stopped playing because of school and now just returned to sky this week. Feel like a freshly new moth. I went through eden for the first time a couple of days ago-solo ofc, which sucked so much-and now I just feel lonely. My past friends are mostly inactive now. Doing cr alone while honking every 3 minutes is what I ever do these days. Currently I have a lot of free time so maybe, maybe I'll just keep playing this game until I can finally become an Ikemen or Ikejou or chibi vet idk

[@nightthorn1233]

I completely understand. I like when I occasionally get to join one of the handholding groups. (mostly happens at the treehouse) The closest I’ve gotten to playing with a friend was when I got my sister to play for a few days. (I also got my dad and brother to try it) it’s so sad that I don’t have in real life or in game friends.

[@Sofpilar]

[@sple3ns]

As a solo veteran, this actually hurts. The only online freinds i ever had either ditched the game years ago or rarely play, and maybe im at fault for tha myself. Candle and wing running are so lonely to me to the point where i started to loathe them so much. I cant maintain any online freindship on any platform, the only irl freinds i have that played the game along side me refuse to play it now or are always busy. I gave up on this game on multiple occasions due to me finding it lonely/ over run by prices and limited items, that took from the adventure that this game had to offer in my opinion. Recently gave it another chance, and yet again im burnt out and lonely. Ill prolly quit after this season again lol. Sad boi hours :'3

[@hanaafauzana8364]

I have 3 friends in Sky that I could kind of call them a friend, and talk most to. Talk MOST to, but not most of the time. Because most of the time, my friends are offline and busy, my friends have better friends etc. It always hurts me seeing quests where you have to "hug a friend" as a solo player, learning that you could complete the quest from the spirit made me happy then the more I thought about it, the more sadder I kind of got.. But realistically thinking, there's no way I could deal with the responsibility of afterwards getting close to a friend then trusting them, talking to them in every social media. It's possible I could find a really special person and go miles for them, but knowing how shy I am there's just no way to be that serious about the relationship- So I have come to the conclusion that I don't wanna hurt myself nor do I wanna hurt anyone who has high hopes about me. Thus, I remain a solo player and stay low-key 👍🏻

[@earth2cody]

I used to have a big group of friends, they adopted me as a moth and taught me everything I know from sky. Stuff happened and I got locked out of my account, just recently managed to get it back.

She hasn't logged in months. I miss her.

[@Bee-ip1wv]

I had two of my close friends join me on sky but they only played with me for about a day- I'm not upset that they weren't into it and it's hard for me to actually talk to people due to my anxiety, but it's nice when people light my candle- or even when I see people I've lit before come around again. It feels just a little less lonely. Maybe one day I'll have that confidence to actually make a friend- who knows maybe they'll teach me some candle saving skills

[@clairejean968]

Even if I do have friends they are busy and not online anymore. Being a solo player isn't that lonely. You get to explore and admire the scenery in Sky. I'm a solo player now and I never get bored, because I'm not playing this game just to make friends it's to enjoy the game yourself.

[@darkyNnw]

Ooh, I see a lot of people here with the same problem. And I guess... I'm not different either. I've been playing sky for two years and in the first year I made friends with different people and made a very strong friendship with a chinese girl. Her name was Qiu, we were very close, I never thought I would have such a great friend. But one day she disappeared without a trace. I tried to contact her through mail, but she didn't answer any of my letters. My heart hurts from this. All my friends with whom I communicated are gone. Sometimes I wish I could go back to a time when I could go to someone and just talk about life. To everyone who is lonely in the game I wish to find that friendship that will bring you joy and love. The friendship in this game is wonderful, but also painful... Now I'm all alone. (Sorry for possibly mistakes. English is not my first language)

I used to have many close friends in Sky, I've been playing for three years now. But since I quitted the game due to burnout, many of my friends already quit the game, completely. I had first friend this close since Enhancement season. Then i had other friend who was chaotic and fun to hangout. And finally another fun friendl whom we played a lot together, and gifted a pass to me in Christmas, i never took it off and i still wear it. I couldn't say goodbye to them...and here i am. Now i have only one friend to hang out, but most of the time i feel.... lonely. Coming back to Sky after knowing your friends quit hurts me.

Omg the song at the end "when i was lonely". I play this song a lot and hits different when there's no one there to listen you playing

[@J_J237]

As a solo player i need to agree on this. I have a second account which is my only heart source. But it’s also very hard for me to socialise and I’m scared to join my friend if I make some. Often we just meet one time and then we never talk to euch other again. But bring a solo player isn’t that bad! I actually like to just enjoy the game and maybe play some music alone :)

[@thatskyworld]

I feel the same, all of my friends just quit, the others just find another better friend... Then prefered to be alone

[@artiztix]

I can somehow relate. As a mostly solo candle/wing runner, I have a group of 3 friends including me, they've became my online parents and I love them dearly. But our gameplay style is different, I am more cycled around collecting candles, while they like to chill and explore, so I could join them only after I finish my daily cr. There's also day's when they almost don't go online in Sky, yes we can talk on discord but still. I like to help Moths on days like this, or just sit somewhere in Prairie/Wasteland hub

[@wolfagalaxy1428]

This hit hard... I used to have a friend I always played Sky with, they were the reason I even discovered and started playing even lol. We lost contact a few months ago, and I haven't talked to them since. I honestly wish I had more friends on Sky, just like you said! But I am afraid of disappointing or not doing enough to help them. It's pretty lonely, but there are a few social butterflies that can become your friend and then introduce you to their friends and so on. Stay strong fellow solo players!

[@MidoriGa95]

I never truly felt lonely in mmo as I always a lone wolf until I had to do fire trial by myself. The darkness and the void ambient.....oof really made me hope I wasnt alone. Though I ended up learning the tricks to do the fire trial as solo so I wouldnt spend too long in it

[@zellybelly1615]

as an already really lonely person with plenty of friends, sometimes sky just makes me feel even more alone i have lots of friends yes, but i can’t help but think when i go around them i’m only going to annoy them

[@carleyryer534]

I’ve been playing sky for about 2 years. My sky kid will be 3 years old tho this November at least I think she turns 3. Anyways, I got tired of the same routine of candle farming and going through the eye of Eden. I have no friends that I found it boring and stopped playing for a year. I recently joined again and still find it lonely. I play more often but I envy the others that have friends with piggyback rides or chatting. Instead of making friends I just help others and get worried for the moths around. I like to make sure they’re ok. I’d love to have more friends either veterans or moths.

[@asukasky9653]

This video was very touching, good job. 🌷 I really relate to this… 🌧 I would love to be your Sky friend c:

[@Riko-of7jk]

Awww I’m sure you are doing your best Eri :’) may you find a friend and a shoulder to lean on. Sometimes it might seem that others easily have best friends but don’t give up :))

[@Gatolulucp]

Before a friend of mine hadd acess to the game (when the game was iOs only) I was a solo player. But it was not sad, nor lonely. It was beautiful, you get to meet new people and interact with them with emotes, music, or just casual gameplay. Maybe is because the game was still new and people were more friendly, but I honestly believe that the best experience in sky is to game with the chat off, and only chatting through benches and interacting with emotes.

[@venusrose5641]

Haha this video reminded me of my first year on Sky! I made one friend just to see what it was like and to my shock they introduced me to a bunch of other people. 😂 I felt very overwhelmed as I went from having one friend to six. They were all very kind and patient with me and didn’t push me into joining them on candle runs. I think that was the best part, they always let me know that if I needed help I could ask. They were the best and helped me learn more about oobs and glitches to make my run faster! Even now when I see a group of people it reminds me of them. Only one of them plays sky now and we do everything together. 😂 Don’t be afraid to reach out! You never know they might be your next new friend!

[@mementomori502]

Me who can't even maintain relationships in real life and even destroy the ones I have instantly.

[@Zul_H]

hey it not like that my friends, don't feel bad about it, some time it is not your fault, it is the other party one, like i met this friend, at 1st she is okay but suddenly she told me to go away and leave her alone. then i saw she with her new friends and now her friends is not on line, she wanted to come back as my friends, i just say no and left with my new friends..some only is fake friends who take you for granted but many are great friends, the lesson here is to accept it and move on.

[@yeeeshana1510]

I can relate, dude.. Ive always wanted a friend but I'm kinda too shy to talk in the game.. even irl. Sometimes, when I'm in a middle of a chat, I just get worried of someone asking me something or me saying something cuz I might get embarrassed, things may go awkward, etc. Joining Discord servers doesn't help too. All I could literally say is just "Helloo!! How are you?" and "goodbye!". • I do have some friends in sky btw but we never talk tho, they just run away and or ignore me. Sometimes when I see large groups of players I feel even more sad (and jealous), I even wonder what it's like to be holding hands. But being a solo isn't too bad for me, I just need a bit of practice and *bOoM* -I kinda feel like im venting here but ehh, thats it lol-

[@mizuiro030]

This video really represents me for being a solo player..sometimes, being a solo player is a good thing and there are times that it's not...like,there's a feeling of quite sadness when being a loner.I do have one Sky friend and we're quite close.I've met her since she was a moth and seen her grow,as a proud friend I was really happy cuz it's my first I have seen a close friend who was once a newbie grown so much. She will even call me her best friend which I find it adorably heartwarming💕 I still consider myself as a solo player because I am lonely most of the time. I dunno if I should call myself a veteran cuz I have been playing since season of dreams which was 1 year ago. Still,I'll probably be like this for the rest of my Sky life,maybe even when I quit the game...so I'll try to make good memories like the good old days before the time I'll say goodbye to this beautiful game.

[@chaoticwhoopsie203]

I'm a solo player and I honestly prefer being solo most of the time. If I want to do tasks, i know how to do them efficiently by myself without distractions. But i feel this video, I meet a lot people on sky and as much as i want to become good friends with most of them i either don't see them again, see them briefly, or see them afk.

[@cloudwasntvibeing]

I do have friends, but they just light my candle only.

[@shxpgxdesss]

as a solo player, i only have light buddies. i have a lot of moths on my constellations, but i don’t wanna block them in case they start playing actively and notice i’m not there. like imagine if the way i was or looked really sticks out to a moth and suddenly i’m not on their friend list? i doubt it would happen but it makes me sad to think about haha

[@jonnielson8716]

Even when I had friends in Sky I was lonely. It’s much lonelier to have “friends” who don’t ever come around. In some ways, I feel less lonely in the game when I’m relatively content to play alone, then when I’m hurting for company that no one will give. Story of my life, even in my own family. All three of them. First one gave up on me, second one didn’t care, third one is too busy, distracted and self-absorbed. Been a fun life.

[@omodrip1558]

I really thought my social anxiety was gone but yet I can't still make friends online, I feel really nervous whenever I sit on benches, table, etc. And I'm kinda getting tired of doing repetitive stuffs like candle running without someone beside me. Sometimes I wish that people I am close with play sky too so I won't feel a bit lonely anymore.

[@One-Hundred]

I was a solo player for a while and it honestly felt like I was never going to make friends, but wouldn't you know it, I met my girlfriend on here and we have been happily dating for 4 months now. I also have a lot of friends now too, once you spend some time in the game it's a lot easier to go up to people to light them

[@sheeesh2347]

As a solo player, I want to give you a huge hug! You deserve to be loved.

[@eep2863]

I hope you may find some friends in sky very very soon!😁

[@No-db1ib]

I don’t have sky friends either, just a sky “mother”. It makes me feel lonely too, especially when you see others together.

[@sneka2055]

Im also a solo player and i feel pretty much the same way. Sometimes its good to be alone but i have lot of moments when i feel lonely in sky. I have friends, in fact i have lot of them but all of them just stoped playing sky and the ones that didnt quit are always ofline.

[@skullz0ri]

I felt this way when my sister didn’t get to play but now she can! Aww this is sad 😢

[@hmm.who.am.i]

I felt so alonee in this Game That i left lol. Most Of my friends Started ignoring me after a while. And My social anxiety doesn’t help much

[@ariannasky945]

I always played sky with my bestie. *All the time*. Watching thus video i felt so empty inside thanking if she wasn't there for me and I couldn't play with anybody else... Such a lonely feeling, so I want to give you a tight hug! Come here! ❤❤

[@세키-d9b]

I feel the same :( I had a huge group of friends once but after a few months they all had stopped playing sky because they were veterans before I was one, now it’s just lonely and the only time I can see them is through the constellation, I feel your loneliness ☹️

[@ianteo626]

OMORI BACKGROUND MUSIC AHHHHHHH AS SOMEONE WHO LOVES SKY AND OMIRI THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I CIULD COME BY Also this video was reallyyy comforting to watch -w-

[@ariie_XD]

I was a solo player back then and I can say that it is still a part of me till now. Back then, I never really bothered I was lonely but then I started to realize the game wasn't fun anymore.. So I took a break and while doing so I watch Sky contents. I came across this youtuber with sky cotl content and had a discord server I could join so then I did. I wasnt very fan of interacting with stranger especially knowing they actuslly play sky cotl.. But thats where I started to fill up my constellations as I get to have fun with them. I dont actually like random players to join me instantly, rather those who I know well. Knowing I could still contact them in a another app made me feel Im appreciated and loved💕 Thats also when I started to avoid adding strangers in game but rather from discord..

[@Icecrayon]

I relate to this so much my god I've been playing for a year and I've never really had that many friends i had one or two close ones but they eventually just left i wish my experience with sky could've been playing with friends and it does get lonely, i did end up meeting a friend in gw we aren't as close anymore but they've told me i was one of their only close friends and it makes me feel little better knowing i actually have someone who enjoys hanging out with me after all that time being lonely still most of the time i am a solo player and i really wish i had a circle of friends to be around.. sorry for the rant lol thank you if you read all of it though

[@notpcbruh904]

I can relate to this every single time when I join sky

[@zenilys]

Come on guys!!! Let’s create a group and let’s play all together so we don’t have to feel alone anymore :) ❤️

[@FtlessFrggls]

:0 I’m in! :D i Play pretty much everyday and I’d love to do candle runs with others and have fun qwq

[@ki8563]

Can I join? :')

[@FtlessFrggls]

@@ki8563 Awe QWQ I don’t think they made a group TWT

[@Diluc-.-]

This is literally me always 🙂even sometimes stranger will greet me, but it's temporary thingy...

[@cheryltamara3762]

Oh I absolutely felt this 😭😭😭 i've been trying to get my friends to play but they wouldn't :') guess i'll stay solo

[@alessiamariabasascu8970]

so true, I used to have loads of friends a few years back before I stopped playing. I’ve only just come back a few weeks ago and it’s so lonely now :

[@shy_8427]

I often meet strangers along the way when I'm candle running and light their candles. The little bows make me happy every time :D

[@mitsu5042]

hello!Its me a solo player with actually many friends...I got many friends but i dont really have a friend group...they are all just people i meet along the way and cant join because i feel like a 3rd weel because everyone already has someone to play sky with...

[@lfernandes8695]

I feel exactly like this, I don't like being SO alone and without anyone, I don't like having to spend literally 30 minutes to open a simple door and I don't like that my only reason for opening the game is to complete missions and not to play with someone

[@O111e]

Same. The only times I ever really play now is when I want certain event items or I wanna play music. Even then I usually go to composer apps for the music. I don't really even bother with TS much anymore.

[@your_dear_lover]

Awwee this made me sad even tho I have friends in sky I don't like seeing anybody bieng lonely A hug from me to anyone feeling lonely rn💖💜💖🌼

[@ZombieGravitation]

When you try to do the “sit on a bench with a stranger” daily and you wait & wait for someone to sit on the bench with you. You see people literally make friends and offer candles before your eyes. I went to & waited at three different realms before someone finally sat with me.

[@zenu8507]

I felt this and I legit started playing 2 days ago. I'm anti-social even on social games and I had to solo the whole game at this point. Only really hit me how lonely I was til I got to eden.

[@cevien3881]

Wanna be friends? \˚ㄥ˚\ i just started when the season of aurora comes so I'm a bit new here

[@softpawsnowspirit]

Being a solo player I can relate that it gets pretty lonely and it’s pretty hard for me to socialize both irl and in game. I do wish I could have friends that wouldn’t leave the game after they go soon after I friends them (mostly moths who never came back on sadly;-;) It also makes me feel lonely and a little sad seeing all the groups of people and my sister having a group of friends to hang out with, I just kinda chill out at the back of the group when she wants me to join her. I’m not sure if I’m just a very sad skykid if I’ve created a couple sky oc’s and imagine chaotic but funny shenanigans to entertain me for a bit. o-o”

[@Baknoboi0]

I used to have friends in sky when I started playing but they stopped playing often and we just eventually stopped talking, I’ve been playing solo for about a year now

[@gofakeyourself2978]

I must be lucky. I’m still friends with my first friends and have made some great new ones too.There are great people playing from all over the world.But friendships need to be nourished.Always be honest and kind❤️❤️❤️

[@keirinin]

Oh! I know the piece you played at the end! It's nice to hear someone else play Sunny's "When I was lonely" You did well!

[@Polar1s2]

I soloed eden on my first run, but yeah it feels lonely, although when I play music some players will come by.

[@bugvideos2030]

Solo player ? You mean candle run enthusiast and candle hoarder 😎(me)

[@bugvideos2030]

I’m too afraid to talk to people

[@ludmivargas4319]

Aqui estoy, el comentario en español que estabas buscando. Y dejame decirte que también me considero una persona solitaria. Admito que se siente bien tener algo de tiempo para ti pero... la soledad puede ser tan pacífica como dolorosa... es como un silencio sin alma o un ruido de ambiente vacío... es como el agua, apaga tus llamas de estrés, pero demasiada puede ahogarte... es como la oscuridad, te oculta de los ojos de la gente, pero limita tu capacidad de socializar... Mi punto es que... a veces me gustaría no sentirme tan sola... Asi que si alguien que habla español le gustaría tenerme como compañera en este maravilloso juego, solo digalo y responderé cuando pueda. Advertencia: tengo una rutina muy estricta asi que quizas no tenga mucho tiempo de juego, pero si estas dispuesto/a a tomar el riesgo, lo acepto

[@LolXD2.0]

Dos semanas luego. Seguro y hasta desinstaló el juego XD

[@章-s8k]

Looking through the comments seeing how many solo players there are Idea why don’t all the solo players band together and start a big friend group then you won’t be lonely anymore

[@DenDarEmi]

Im also a solo player and tbh, I prefer that. I do like to have moths as company or meet random other solo players and join them for a while on cr's tho

[@tigrorybka664]

It's nice being with friends, even if they troll you sometimes. It's nice when friends help we with things I don't know yet. It's nice when I have friends. But, I know the downsides.. they may make you lose your wing count, use you, talk behind your back.. Sometimes I wish I was solo, but I just can't help it. I can't just not adopt a moth. I can't just not accept another friend.. Solo players are great, and so are the extrovert players. Both sides are worth it, and you wish you were the other side either way..

[@Ozuuuu_0]

To any of you who play sky alone you can always ask me to befriend you on sky , I know how alone it feels and I hope I can brighten your game :)
