I'm sure you're all wonderful people, but how can I play the game without encountering anyone else? (lemmy.world)

The game is supposed to be an ominous and foreboding ARPG, and instead I run across BgButzzzz6nine, or I start moving towards some creatures on the other side of my screen, and before I've taken two steps some Necromancer and undead horde come buzzsawing through the area like a scythe, and I have to try and find someplace where I can actually kill things. The isolated feel was a key point of the game, and added to the ambiance and feel of the game. Now, I can't go 2 minutes without getting that immersion ruined by some random intrusion by another player. Is there some way to not be surrounded by other people while playing the game?

As far as I understand that's not possible. The game requires an internet connection and consoles need to have PS Plus or Xbox Live.

That said, I seem to only run into people at major towns and most of the time they're shooting by me on a horse. When the game first launched I had a lot more interactions, probably because most people were still in Act I.
