Solo player here: I still prefer multiplayer games because single player AI is dumb and predictable. I can only put up with every enemy behaving the same exact way, making the same exact mistakes so many times before it gets boring. And FWIW you don't need friends to enjoy most online titles. Most games let you queue solo.

Not meant to be a sneer, but isn't that what difficulty modes / end game content is for?

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Difficulty modes are for making you lose the same way every time instead of winning the same way every time.

Multiplayer is for having a chance.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Difficulty modes just more often than not means that the AI will either cheat or become a bullet sponge. Increasing the difficulty also doesn't fix the issue of every enemy behaving exactly the same way as every other. Single player AI ruins immersion for me. The story has to be really good for me to be able to look past the bad AI that is in nearly every single player game.

Yeah but actually playing with friends is so much better. I almost exclusively do it that way now

Sure thing. You want a discord link?

Not arguing that, but not everybody has that option. If you don't have/don't want friends, queueing solo is the next best way to get maximum enjoyment out of a game, IMO.
