Not to mention every OG single player game now becoming heavily multiplayer focused.

Halo, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Rainbow Six, Grand Theft Auto…

Can’t just make a new IP. No…we need to ruin the old game you love playing and focus only on players who want an online exclusive experience.

I quit following Halo Infinite updates because it only ever was something new for multiplayer.

Rockstar canceled all DLC plans for GTA V and waited 10 years to unveil its successor. I’m not even interested in GTA VI because it’s inevitably going to be multiplayer focused and forget about the offline single player experience.

Rainbow Six Patriots got canceled so we could get Rainbow Six Siege which has pretty much become a CounterStrike knock off.

All these companies forgot what made their games great and who the original fanbase consisted of in favor of the flavor of the month players.
