1. How many people play COD and don't touch the multiplayer? A small number I can guarantee. Probably less than 10%.

Again. Irrelevant.

2. The multiplayer can be improved and they have a lot of competition so they need to be on their A game constantly. COD multiplayer is good currently, just needs to improve.

It is Call of Duty. Activision not only has the funds to finance the game... But they also have the resources to build said game.
No need for excuses like "More resources spent on Multi". - It's not going to happen. Activision will just keep laughing all the way to the bank.

3. This whole no single player is hypothetical  as well.

I'm aware.

4. They can probably profit even more without a single player. Look at Pubg and fortnite.

Are you saying that potentially millions of gamers opening their wallets for the single player component isn't worth it?
I think you need to think on this a bit more to come to an appropriate conclusion.

5. Yes Skyrim did well in 2011. However, this is 2018. I know time flies. Everyone wants to be the next fortnite, pubg, league of legends, ect. The money you make on microtransactions and all you have to do is update the game is great for business.

So... If Bethesda was to hypothetically release a new Elder Scrolls game, it will potentially sell less than Skyrim? Is that the message you are trying to convey here?

1. No not irrelevant. If the same people completed the campaign willing to purchase the game just for the multiplayer, why make a single player?

2. Oh boy. Do you realize that even Activision has a budget right? Why spend money on something that is useless.

3. Then you must realize you're a hypocrite.

4. Check number 1 for reference.

5. More sells does not equal more profit. Nowadays to compete you have to spend a lot more money than before (compared to 2011) and hope to sell way more copies. Not to mention a single player game like Skyrim takes a lot more time to create than a multiplayer game like pubg and cod.
