TIM WHITE WRITES: "Multiplayer or single player? Developers, you can do both, just not willy-nilly."
I hate when I see single player games and see people begging for multi-player. Jeez guys it don't need to be on every game. Latest one I seen was atomic heart.
Multiplayer or even co-op
If it was always a single player game then that's how it is
It's a trend that never really went away. For me multiplayer in a primarily SP focused game was an excuse for DLC. Then there's the mentality gamers had that adding multiplayer makes a game worth the price, otherwise it should be half price for half a game. A way of thinking devs reassured when they started adding multiplayer to their sequels. We see the same with multiplayer focused games getting SP in their sequels.
I remember when certain single player games had them as included optional modes that was played on the couch. Had brilliant times with Syphon Filter and Golden Eye. Me and my bro used to used to fight over who would play as Gabe even though it was technically just a skin. Good times.
Meanwhile, KONAMI shits in its pants.
Them's strong words Kojima. I'll be keeping an eye out for this game now.
Didnt he say something along those lines prior to GTAV's Release? Love Kojima but he gives me major Deja Vu.
interesting , kojima has always been fan of western games.
you can't really blame him especially seeing how japanese developers struggled last gen.
They could have used a more credible person , who the hell trusts Kojima ? maybe he played the demo version.
