You are spot on imo. [quote]....takes me out of the experience I am trying to enjoy.[/quote] This is my biggest reason for playing solo. [quote]....people are chatting away about their personal life.[/quote] Not that I don't like people but for me it's not the place to make new friends. Again, it takes away from the gaming experience which is why I play in the first place. I played out 3 Destiny 1 accounts, not sure of total hours though I'm sure it's a lot.
