TIM WHITE WRITES: "Multiplayer or single player? Developers, you can do both, just not willy-nilly."
I hate when I see single player games and see people begging for multi-player. Jeez guys it don't need to be on every game. Latest one I seen was atomic heart.
Multiplayer or even co-op
If it was always a single player game then that's how it is
It's a trend that never really went away. For me multiplayer in a primarily SP focused game was an excuse for DLC. Then there's the mentality gamers had that adding multiplayer makes a game worth the price, otherwise it should be half price for half a game. A way of thinking devs reassured when they started adding multiplayer to their sequels. We see the same with multiplayer focused games getting SP in their sequels.
Tbh multilayer now is a way to add live service and mtx elements, very rarely does it come of well.
What single players game used to be in a lot of cases now require 3 other people for keeping to really enjoy it and I hate having to rely on others to get the maximum from a game.
Sp should be sp, if devs want to add a separate multi mode then that's fine with me, the legends addition to ghost of tshushima was fricking sick but totally separate to the main game. Sick of co op too.
I remember when certain single player games had them as included optional modes that was played on the couch. Had brilliant times with Syphon Filter and Golden Eye. Me and my bro used to used to fight over who would play as Gabe even though it was technically just a skin. Good times.
I'm really interested in how the tablet pp works. I mean can only owners of a tablet join in the fun or just gamers with a registered copy of the division on console/pc use it. Is the tablet app going to cost money on top of the game. I have friends that are strictly tablet gamers, would be nice to have them joining in some real gaming fun.
While Infamous is on the top of my list, I must say The Division had the most impressive demo I have ever seen.
When the character closed the slightly ad-jar door automatically as bullets created realistic window damage above his head was the first time I said to myself, "ok, this is next-gen".
Can..... Not.... Wait... For... This... Game!!
