Maybe I didnt express myself right earlier, but yeah.As long as there is a way to play alone, like a carrer mode that most sport games have, Im fine with a price tag.I mean, whether the game is good enough for you to pay 60 dollars or 10 dollars is a whole other discussion, but I personally believe that every single game should offer some type of single player, be it playing with bots, or having an actual story mode, or having a career mode of some kind.And that it dosent require the internet. So yeah, if Overwatch has something like that(from the launch), sure it qualifies.Im not trying to make people believe in this opinion of mine, its just my way of thinking.A game is not good or bad because it lacks this feature, it just means that I wont be buying it.It really dosent matter if it makes sense or not.It would be the same situation if someone says that you are crazy because you dont like FPS genre.You simply dont like it.It dosent need a reasoning behind it. Since we are in this discussion anyway, what do you prefer, multiplayer or single player?If you were to choose a game, one that only has multiplayer and one that only has single-player, but both were of the same quality(have the same metacritic score for example), what would you choose? |
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.
