>Your dopamine receptors are burnt out from playing competitive multiplayer games, thats why you cant enjoy x boring singleplayer game!
This is wrong. Most singleplayer games have abysmally bad boring gameplay loops coupled by atrocious ai. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with playing multiplayer games, playing against opponents makes games much more engaging.

i remember preferring competitive multiplayer games all the way back when i was 7 years old, was new to gaming, and singleplayer games were still good
some people struggle to understand that different people have different preferences
>you have a mental disease if you enjoy competition
nah man

I used to play Counter-Strike 1.6 (back when it was still beta before 1.0) competitively, even did clan wars (or "scrims" in zoomer lingo).
I played Starcraft for years.
I raided in WoW for a decade, also did arenas.

I had my fill of competitive games and pvp. Nowadays I just play single player games, mainly sandbox or open world games and chill. In multiplayer I mainly play coop. No, I don't find it more engaging to play pvp. It's way more stressful, plus you can't use "fun" tactics, always have to minmax and use what's the most effective weapon or strategy.

not necessarily true, it's just way harder, but also much more rewarding

Multiplayer games are only enjoyable if you can say whatever you want without getting banned. Only when you have complete freedom of syllable choice can you actually make friends

Your a bitch bro
Play a fighting game. Ever pro player has their unique playstyle and mechanics. You can do all kinda of unorthodox plays and come out on top. Stop playing head clicker games Lil bitch

I gave up on single-player games because they seem obsessed with arbitrarily punishing players.
>woops, you didn't click on that hidden door in that quest and can never get the best item now
>woops, you picked the dialogue choice that we decided gives you the bad ending 45 hours from now
>woops, you only picked 6/7 of the correct choices to max your relationship with that character
>woops, you died in our game with no manual saving and the last autosave was 2 hours ago (don't ask us why)
I swear, I never have to deal with bullshit like this in multiplayer games.
>>
>>744622621
Then play singleplayer games with multiplayer coop.

Thats because most sp games use artifical difficulty because they cant make good ai. It plagues every genre desu.
Grand strategy 4x games the most played sp pc games give the ai 10x the resources of the player on higher difficulties the whole sp genre is a joke really.

yes

Don't think you're hearing me right man.

not gonna lie, this is an incredibly autistic post.
>waaaah i dont have the best items in the game at the end. fuck replayability and secrets
>waaaah fuck alternative endings
>waaaah fuck this specific type of dating sim system almost exclusively found in VNs where the whole point is trial and error
>waaaah fuck ....games with 2 hours between autosaves? what fucking game are you playing that goes longer than 20 minutes without an autosave

sound like the type of person who plays a game with the guide open on the other monitor so you don't "miss anything". The reason AAA aren't allowed to have fun bonus content anymore because people complain when they dont find it.

>i never have to deal with this shit in multiplayer games
yeah, because there's no endings or items to miss, you dunce. you shoot the other blokes in the face for a few rounds, then do it again

You're playing a multiplayer game with bots, that's not a "single player game" you fucking faggot, nor does it have anything to do with the post you're replying to.

May as well use street fighter as an example as to why single player games are bad, because the Ryu CPU keeps jumping into your sonic boom

>I'm doomed to play FOTM garbage that's going to be shut down forever in the future and all my fun will be dictated by the quality of the niggers, children, stoners and other assorted retards I have to play with and how the discord/reddit trannies policing the game decide how things should be
Yeah, have 'fun' with multiplayer lol

That example was actually from Cyberpunk LOL

It's the opposite. These games seem like they're designed for guidefags with how autistic their systems are
The average normie will start playing a game like Pathfinder, try to assign attributes etc as best they can, and then quit a few hours in when they struggle to kill anything and aren't having fun
>>
>>744623390
Have you tried not playing bad games? Oh what the hell, of course you haven't. You're posting AAA garbage thinking that's all video games are.
>>
>>744624185
Holy fuck your either retarded or dont know what genre im talking about
I mean grand strategy rp games anon
Endless games, stellaris, ck, victoria, mount and blade, paradox shit ect
Those games are designed from the ground up, down to the atom to be sp games first and foremost so much so that co op dosent even mechanically work in alot of them.
If you try to play them competitively they suffer from unbalance to such a high degree no multiplayer genre on the planet is even comparable. You can win in stellaris if you have a good start compared to a player with 20k hours who is top in the world while you only have 300.
I cant physically describe in words how lopsided these games are for pvp based on factions randomized starts different tech trees ect. It would take the devs more than a decade of working everyday to balance the game for comp
