when you think about it, you're just going through some predetermined experience that a billion other people are having. its fun at first but when you realize its hardly unique or an expression of yourself, the cracks shine through

I've slightly gone opposite. Gotten a bit tired of multiplayer.

I still do both, but SP ones you can always return to or go at your own pace. Once the game's community dies off or some annoying ass meta is found it's ruined multiplayer wise.

This

Also most things we consumed are linear and railed. Books, movies, shows, music. Not sure why you draw the line with games "limiting your expression"

Nope. I've grown out of trying to keep up with newest trends in online gaming. It's fun to play with others you know, but playing with randoms, which is most people, sucks because alot of people are toxic and they try to one up each other when it comes to stupid shit and it gets annoying fast.

Gaming has become more and more "me time" as I've gotten older. If I wanna socialise I'll go out. Playing a game is more like reading a book for me.

I fell off of online multiplayer hard, I was in an organized competitive NHL league for years, this is the first time in many seasons i'm not gonna join up and play. Every now and then I fire up a Battlefield game or Siege, but not often like I used to.

I find it tougher to finish a lot of single player games now, there isn't a whole lot out there I haven't played at this point. Every now and then I find a gem that just completely sucks me in, Spiritfarer was the last one that did this, Psychonauts 2 also, but it's gotta be a pretty unique experience to hold me through.

I used to knock out games all the time, not so much anymore.

Single-player games can be a lot more mentally stimulating than multiplayer (especially as far as console games go) ~ sure, the difference is that a person can theoretically be more unpredictable than a machine, but as we see in the case of chess for example.... sometimes, the computer just wins. Also, most of the time people online arent doing a whole lot of higher thinking, deep strategizing, really
honing their skills, or anything like that. Theyre just running around, playing with other kids, trying to fit in, etc

Multiplayer in games also tends not to allow so much for the deeper narrative you get in a lot of these single-player games that try to emulate movies or epic novels a little bit....

..... also, with multiplayer.... the graphics almost always take a major hit.

you realize its hardly unique or an expression of yourself
A game thats played by many can still be unique, unless youre wishing for its uniqueness to mean its a unique experience just for you that no one or few get to experience as well. If thats the casejust about every consumable or commodity has that dynamic as well.

The expression partgo make your own art if you want to express yourself. Or speak up. Or dress in a unique way. You dont watch cartoons to express yourself, or eat at a swanky restaurant to express yourself.

In other wordsyoure trippin.

Nah, single-player makes it where I can relax without feeling the pressure multiplayer gives me. Like, playing a team FPS is stressful because you know others are relying on you to do good. Getting nasty messages from people for making mistakes is not a fun time.

On the other hand, I can still find ways to spice up single-player such as speedrunning.

Everyone's bad. There are a handful of players who play some of the multuplayer games professionally, and compared to them... everyone else is bad. Including me. Including you.

I thought I was good at MK11, right up until I matched with Hayatei and got destroyed. Normal players just don't have the knowledge, reaction speed, or practice time that people like him do.
