Another game has multiplayer needlessly attached. Oh the joy of the current gen!

Yeah maybe they should just make it single player like the first game which failed too sell what they wanted it too.

 

Heaven forbid they add a way to extend its life and make players want to keep the game, encourage friends to buy and not sell it used.

Multiplayer doesn't make it a must buy. And things like used buying have little impact on a games sales, regardless of what publishers want to spin. 

Exactly same with piracy, studies just call BS, sure it doesn't help things, but if someone isn't going to buy it for 60 they're just not buying it cause the product wasn't within the customers demand range, therefore no customer is lost if they buy it for ten dollars cheaper.  If there are a lot of copies traded in even before the game gets a price drop, well that shows you how much people truly enjoyed it, they enjoyed it so much they don't even care to keep it in their collections to play later

well the thinking of the studio is adding multiplayer adds replay value people replaying their games aren't going to be selling them back to stores or to other people.  Fewer people selling used means the price stays higher for longer. 

However many games that add the multiplayer these days don't do that good of a job of it when they should focus on the single player or they don't support it well after so people just give up on the multiplayer aspect of the game

Now don't get me wrong, I like multiplayer I'm not gonna hate on it for people making it in a game, just it's far too often the singleplayer suffers for the sake of multi, and 90% of the time we don't even get local multi when these guys take away from the singleplayer... so weak single, not so great online, and I can't even play it with a few friends at my place?  *takes a trip to the gamestop to trade in*
