Honest question:
Would/Could a elderly people friendly and oriented MMORPG help elderly feel less alone?
And if so, is such technology even possible?
My guess for first step would be finding out what kind of devices do elderly have access to and more importantly, what kind of devices they use.
Side-thought: Such a MMORPG could even have a subscription based financial model, as most elderly do get regular monthly income.
The moral question:
Is it better to be addicted but not alone, or is it better to be alone and not addicted.
I personally think that not only could this bring new light for the elderly and a opportunity to connect with others including the younger generations.
I think such a solution could help elderly feel less lonely, and it is a solution that could be provided at their homes.
