It seems like many feel that single player experiances have suffered due to Online this gen. Or at least that's how I take it. It might just be fanboys hating on games that are on the other system which is why COD doesn't suffer this hate because it's multiplat. I think more then anything what people consider mediocre about these single player experiances this generation is that the storys are either non existant or poor. For instance I've enjoyed both Killzone 2 and Resistance 2's single player experiances, although resistance 2 less so, but I realised that the story in both of these games are very poor. Almost non existant in each except for some intel in R2. All of the games that are considered to have very strong single player are heavily story driven I believe. So do gamers want more story in their FPS's? I think that would be great. I don't want MGS4, but I don't see why we can't get a good story like Half-Life and a great multiplayer. |
Yes. I read an article albeit, one that is hard to find, that says that a lot gamers these days consider story to be a crucial element in video games. MGS4 may have great gameplay but a lot of people seem to mainly play that game for the story and characters. Same thing with anything called Final Fantasy.
