Do you prefer games to be highly single player based, multiplayer based?

[CannonFodder13 2]

I was first asked this question by my friend who said he loved single player and he didn't play much of multiplayer. I my self prefer a balance between the two by making the single player re-playable and making the multiplayer addicting. (E.G. GTA V)

It varies for me I enjoy FPS online and I love dota, but I have small children at home so I have to pause frequently so I will always want an equal mix of the two.

Yeah I much prefer a great and well developed single player experience. I just tend to get bored with most multiplayer games pretty soon adn end up going back to a single player game I love. Right now playing Planescape Torment which is an incredible old school RPG I would recommend to everyone! Also The Witcher series is my favourite recent game series

Personally I like having a good single-player, that lets you relax, but nothing beats multiplayer when its skill you are looking for, no "npcs" can match a real player skill, meaning you get more competition out of multi

I used to be non stop multiplayer with the occasional story based game here and there. Over the last couple years that seems to have completely switched for me. I just love a great story now. Although, that could just be a lack of a multiplayer game im really interested in.

 

I am looking for a good multiplayer game to get into again but I think i'll wait for some next gen games to release. Hopefully Destiny.

I tend to play more single-player unless me and some friends got a game with multi-player in mind. What I miss is games with local co-op, there doesn't seem to be as many as there use to be back in the day. It used to seem like it was a standard for games.

[Psychochilla 127]

i find the multiplayer parts in most games lacking a bit in gameplay sometimes but i really enjoy playing co-op games with my brother.

I'm fine with multiplayer in predominantly single player games as long as it makes sense and they make it unique enough. If it's tacked on then it's pointless.

[SlyCooperFan1 3]

I grew up on single-player games that had a fun splitscreen multiplayer mode to go with it. What I want in a game is a very good single-player campaign, but secondary to that, I really want local multiplayer. Online multiplayer is not something I really care too much for. I'll play it if it's there, but I won't get too fully engrossed in it.

Single player all the way baby!

[Gnomejon 1]

I do mostly single player stuff as I get burned out on multiplayer very easily and I like to keep that experience to playing with my friends, not random people online.  I do play MMOs sometimes, and I get really into them when I have a good community to play with, and I will play FPS's online every once in a while, but for the most part I like to play single player only.

I'm more into singe player gaming but i have no problem with MP long as its not forced on by publishers

A great game developer should be focused on a great singleplayer and multiplayer experience. 

[Flafty 7]

I prefer single player for the most part. My work requires me to interact with people every day, and I get QUITE enough of that. I don't need to have it in my gaming experience.

[ElvenBlossom 37]

It depends on the game really, though Campaign based games with online co-op I do love. Like I really enjoy playing The Elderscrolls, Fallout ect but playing them with a online co-op would be amazing. I guess Single Player and Multi-player are each great on their own but I do like it when the lines blur a little.

[Narrlocke 97]

I pretty much strictly play multiplayer games.   Last time I had fun with a single-player game was Mirror's Edge.

[ghost_doug 0]

i love a great single player game because of the story and the people in it but mutiplayer is fun because you get to test your skills against others and see if your good or not

[Patty-Jack 39]

I enjoy singleplayer games that reward you for thinking outside of the box, give you lots of options, or a huge world to explore. Games like Deus Ex, Skyrim, Stalker and Dragon Age: Origins are great examples.

I do frequent multiplayer games like Battlefield, but it's very hard to find games that do both well.

[Corporate Agent 406]

If it has story in it, make it single-player!!!

[Bomberman 0]

i enjoy both, but if i had to pick between the two, i would choose single player unless the game is made for multiplayer. not many people prefer the battlefield single player over the multiplayer. 

[Paper Man 12]

Left for Dead had it right when they combined multiplier fun with little story telling through out the game. I really hate the fact that games like Call of Duty or Battlefield still persist on giving us "Story mode" (Campaign). They lack any heart and feel like second rate to the multiplayer. Most gamers skip story mode all together and never touch it. The same can be said about story driven games with tacked on multiplayer. 

 

Stick to what your good at.

[Paper Man 12]

If it has story in it, make it single-player!!!

Bio-sock Infinite has good writing and fleshed out characters within a driven Story mode……..

 

Lets staple on a shitty horde mode !

[thegame0dude 20]

SO HARD TO DECIDE! umm singleplayer... because of mass effect... but wat about BF4? AHHH I CANT DECIDE!
