Nah.

I really like online games and wish I could play more of them, but they there is a single issue that throws a wrench into the whole thing: The common person is a dog ass felching, homeless leper cock sucking niggershits.

An online game has to be designed from the ground up on the base recognition that the average person is that. And the games that attract the more mature, intelligent player end up not having enough players to make it fun.

Well you're wrong! Not everyone has Internet access. Single player games are unique in telling a crafted story and having a more cohesive vision for the players benefit. Why, just look at Titanfall and Brink and it's sorry half assed attempt to combine single player and multiplayer.

You there! Big and pink. What kind of games do you play?

The interactions can be more satisfying than in a single-player game. The problem is that whether or not they are good depends on the quality of the human stock you are playing with. It is generally low quality. But when it is good the game is way better than it would be in single player. Though this is not common.

You have to take into account the kind of games that offer multiplayer interaction. Is this call of duty (every man for himself) dark souls (jolly cooperation ), or gears of war (close knit team warfare).

That's also banking that the dev actually put time and thought into the game and it's elements and not the borderlands/desitny/division predicament where the game, even alone, can't even hold itself up and relies entirely on multiplayer to sell itself.

I want you to be wrong so much OP but you're right.

Some games are okay, but you always end up leaving single player games to the wayside to play multiplayer who accumulate so many more hours than the singleplayer game could ever hope to achieve.

It's why no matter how many games I try to get into I keep coming back to league of legends.

The 3 big guys lost 3-4 times on the course of 5 season. The real sumo (Purple guy) never lost. BLue and green lost 2 times each, and it was always against more well built dude. Obviously the scrawny twins, danny gland and melanoma got fucked but they literally were there for that. And even then Danny especially won a good few times against bigger guys. He was slipeerry as Golden Shower Boy
