Context matters. I regret time I spent when younger playing alone, but some of my happiest memories involve endless games of Doom II, DN3D, and Quake on the network my friends and I built in our dorms. A bunch of us around each computer, chatting, cheering, jeering, and just plain waiting for a go.

Context is everything.

Same here, regarding StarCraft with friends vs Diablo 2/Ultima Online alone.

Oh yes! I remember how my friends and I were blown away by Warcraft, and then just feel into SC with abandon. Good times.
