Like I've said, I don't mind that you personally wouldn't pay for a game that only has a multiplayer. What I do mind is you saying all multiplayer only games should have a free option to play them. I mean, let's be honest, take Rocket League (which I presume you've played from your replies?), if they removed the online multiplayer part, the game would become boring within 2 hours, and I wouldn't pay ten cents for it. Remove the single player mode, and..... nobody cares. This is not the same scenario as someone calling you crazy for you saying you don't like FPSs. This is more akin to if you were to someone calling you unreasonable for you saying "FPSs are bad". Once more, it's one thing that you wouldn't pay for a game that has no singleplayer mode, but it's another thing entirely to say that all multiplayer only games should be playable for free. "I don't like FPS" - doesn't need reasoning behind it, it's your taste. "FPSs are bad" = unreasonable. I see your statements (ie. "I just personally believe that they should have an option to play for free", and "And Multiplayer only games should offer a free version") as more in the "FPS are bad" category. So tl;dr "I wouldn't pay for a multiplayer only game" = okay, it's your opinion, we all have our own. "All multiplayer only games should be playable for free" = seriously? Depends a lot on the game. I mostly prefer singleplayer, but for some games I prefer the multiplayer. In general I would probably pick the singleplayer only game. |
They dont necessarily have to be completely free, but could have some sort of trial mode.Then, if you like what you play, you buy the full version.That could be one idea.It dosent need the game to be completely free.There are some exceptions that the game is so extremely good, that a price tag would be more than justifiable.But for me, most arent worth my money.
I think that way because:
1.I dont like multiplayer games in general, so I really apreciate when I have the chance to try them out first without buying.
2.Multiplayers games are ever-evolving.A reviews from 6 months ago may not represent the game anymore.So I personally think that having the chance to at the very least try it out before making my decision, since the game that I read about may not be the same.The same cant be said about singleplayer games(well at least updates dont change nowhere near as multiplayer patches and updates does)
Of course there is the personal (and I agree a bit stupid) reason that since I dont like multiplayer games, I see them as a lower value game compared to the single-player ones, but the reasons listed above are the more reasonable ones.
PS:I did play Rocket League(Got it from PS Plus), but played 20 to 30 minutes of it.Can admit its a good game, just personally didnt like it.
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
