The Blackangel Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Whether they said it or not is irrelevant in my opinion. Single player games will never be dead. It's that multiplayer games are more popular at the moment in todays market, and vastly more profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What with it being a profit-driven industry though, it does worry me sometimes. But I think that getting rid of SP entirely would be extremely alienating to a huge number of gamers. I just hope it never happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't - there will always be a large single-player market because Sony along with other developers and companies always put out quality SP experiences so it definitely won't die.

Aside from the allure of classic systems, another reason I stick to the old stuff, is because it is mostly single player. I think the only multiplayer games I have are early Mario games, and fighting games (MK, SF2, etc.). Other than that, virtually everything I own is single player.

killamch89 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Why is it that every time that most gaming companies come up with a product, they always use the word "innovative"? Bringing back things that were industry standard a few years ago is not innovative at all and it is misleading (talking about EA in particular).

The Blackangel Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Innovation takes a hell of a lot of time and work. I think too many developers have forgotten that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think too many developers have forgotten that. I agree - they think tweaking an old concept slightly is innovative which is absolute bs. The only time game developers come up with anything innovative is a new type of microtransaction system to swindle us players out of our hard-earned money. I don't see them putting that same kind of energy into making a refreshing experience for us players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
