Wow. People seem to be very anti-mp around here. I dont think mp can ever be a be a bad thing.

Interactions with NPCs in 50 hour JRPGs is about all the social interaction some around here want.

One thing this numbers do not show is that offline mp is getting worse and worse while online is always favored. Its like they are making these modes just in case your isp goes offline for some hours. Really sad imo. Offline MP is where videogames really shine.

I hope cases like bioshock 2, dead space 2 and tomb raider happen less and less, bioshock infinite is the way to go.

As covered by others here it's a problem because some games really aren't meant for it, so at best it's an inoffensive extra that was a waste of time and money given how quickly it ends up dying, at worst it completely and undeniably changes the game's overall design, this was a significant issue with Resident Evil 5 and 6, and despite Dead Space initially being a reprieve from that they jumped into it with Dead Space 3 as well, and while they tried to handle it so it didn't have the same effect there were still compromises like removing save points in favor of fully going checkpoint based, a separate issue of mine.Wow.

I hate multiplayer that is forced on single player centric games. Who still plays and remembers the sequels to Dead Space or Bioshock for their mp?

Right, I'm just thinking about this in a GAF perspective of "Are the titles people here are excited about having less multiplayer?"
I mean, I'm guessing The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct doesn't, but I'm not sure that's what people jump out of bed and cheer about in the morning.
I think a lot of times it's actually a bit of both. Upper management wants to force it in, and while they have the drive for a great single player game they don't for MP, and so they phone it in or let someone else do it (ok that may be a case of just bad developers.) Nevermind that they may specialize in good SP design but have no idea how to approach MP.But is the MP bad because it is forced on? Or is it bad because the developers simply weren't good enough to do the mode justice?
