If you play a SP only game, do you ever complain about how there is no MP mode and how that's cheapening the value of the game? No, you don't. In fact, most people get annoyed if a dev puts tacked on MP on to their SP game, telling them to focus on the SP mode more and make it even better than tacking in MP. So if that's the case for SP games, why can't a dev put all their efforts and make a highly enjoyable, full blown MP game without putting on a horrible tacked on 4-5 hour SP mode that has no replay value like in most shooters?
If a SP dev can make a solid content filled game that has no MP mode without making you feel that the value of the game has been cheapened, then a MP dev should also be able to do the same with a good MP game with no SP mode. If it's the contrary, then just don't buy the MP game. I will personally buy a game, whether it's SP only, MP only or both depending on how good the game is and if it's fun enough to deserve my money. I don't have a preconceived notion of a game NEEDING to have either a SP or MP mode for it to be good value for money. |
Yep. If someone is ok with a 10-12 hour SP game, they should be ok with a MP only game that can last 100 hours + for the same price. Unless they value MP differently. In which case that would be the underlying issue, not the design of the game. |
Yes but those 10-12 SP usually comes with MP. Not only that you're not on the same few boards that have nothing to search for or do, just capture base or random MP games. |
Yeah but I knew going in that there would be nothing to "search for" in a MP only game.
Who here is buying Infamous 3? The Order? Does Quantum Break have MP? If not, throw it in there too. If these SP only games are fine at $60, no reason at all that Titanfall should be discounted at launch for being MP only, and it doesn't make people who buy it "suckers" either.
