How to make the most of playing with yourself.
With circumstances being as they are I've found myself being keen to play games but short one opponent. With the development of many solo games and modules for existing games during and post-lockdown you may think that wouldn't be so much of a problem and that has some truth to it. However try playing tennis without an opponent and you'll better understand my position on the matter. That wall always beats me. I've played solo games as a co-op experience and possibly had a better time with that than in a proper versus game so it's not an issue with mechanics, definitely just with me. Having realised I essentially don't like my own company I've been trying to work out what is it that is so different about a living opponent to playing against what is often a series of logic gates and I think I've got it. Rather obviously it's that people are unpredictable. I can sit my cannons in an unassailable position and know they're safe only for a mad opponent...
