Lol, no, my argument is that game with online is more appealing than game without online in any case.

Around 5-6 hours is not very short single player campaign for online focused game,it would be for single player focused game. Going buy your point, whats exatly point of another single player campaign in Splatoon 2!? Hours length tutorial for Octolings!? :D   Answer is easy, making Splatoon 2 more appealing for single player players also despite game is online multiplayer focused.

No, fact is that games with more options, mods, content, online...are more appealing like package than same game that wouldn't had all that or someo of those things. MP4 can easily have sold online multiplayer mod and keep focused on singleplayer, similar like Splatoon is online multiplayer focused game but also has single player content. You didnt provide me any example what I talk about, while I gave you clear example of Nintendo game (Splatoon) but you still dont want to accept that.

Also, if you want make just simple thread with simple OP question, "if it would be better that MP4 also has online multiplayer mode !?". :)

5 hours is a short campaign even for shooters that is short it serves nothing more than to school the player, whats the point of another campaign? To sell the appeal of adding Octolings to the game not to mention the announcement they have planned in June.

No games having more modes doesn't make them more appealing by default in many cases it makes things more convoluted an appealing package is something that works overall as a product not a mish mash of modes that's flawed thinking you're using there more modes is not what appeals to consumers do you see Elder Scrolls or Fallout adding multiplayer modes and such? No you know why these games are not geared towards it, has their appeal grown as time goes on? Yes because they built on what they focused on which was open world single player rather than chasing after other parts of the market another series has on lock down. 

Again, around 5-6 hours is not very short single player campaign for online focused game, it would be for single player focused game. You can scholl player in 10-15 min tutorial, you don't need 5-6 hours full singleplayer campaign for that. They can sell Octolings without another single player campaign. Reality is that they just want to make Splatoon 2 more appealing for single player players also despite game is online multiplayer focused.

MP4 can easily have solid online multiplayer mod and keep focused on singleplayer, similar like Splatoon is online multiplayer focused game but also has single player content. Also, becuase paid online Nintendo could force online multiplayer for MP4.
