So you want us to generalise? (Not surprising given your incredibly silly sig with its massive generalisation).

I pick the third option, I don't understand why anyone would pic any other option to be honest.

I'll help you. I never play multiplayer. I like SP mode and then move on to the next game (I get so many games from PS+ free games and i just cant keep up). Multiplayer is a waste of time and effort

I don't get why some people hate MP so much now. I'll always play both SP and MP. I don't see why you'd do anything else.

Because tacked-on multiplayer is just a waste of time. It's usually a very shallow experience, feeling like something you've experienced a thousand times before. Only properly designed multiplayer modes are worth any time, and even then people might just not like the competitive aspect. Co-op might be more fun even to people that don't generally like MP very much but in the end, it's still usually a shallower experience than SP.
