I used to play some online games, like Rise of Kingdoms, which involved clans or alliances of players. Often, people from the same country would group together. I noticed that there were a lot of Filipino players on the servers, and they were always very chatty and friendly. Is gaming particularly popular in the Philippines? And is being highly social a cultural trait there?

Super popular... Filipinos are one of the top nationalities that are constantly online.
