When a game isn't designed from scratch for multiplayer, it falls short. Elder Scrolls Online offered a solid single-player experience with occasional players joining or leaving, but the multiplayer side was less satisfying. Conversely, CoD generally provided a decent multiplayer session, though I only completed the campaign in CoD2 and rarely engaged beyond that.
For me, playing multiple players can help save a game. Though it varies by title, some experiences suggest it works well for certain games. It might be worth trying out together with a few friends. Having a couple around usually makes things more enjoyable.
I mostly enjoy online multiplayer games over single-player ones. It's mainly because of my competitive nature. I prefer playing where I can challenge others online rather than just playing alone. I also avoid outdated games that no one plays anymore. For some reason, I find it way more enjoyable knowing there are other people playing the same game.
I mainly track time spent on GMOD while chatting with friends managing my server and other activities. When I was playing Titanfall, I thought it was a solid multiplayer experience, but I wish there were more context about the story and how the mechs fit into the game. I enjoy cut-scenes because they offer polished dialogue and smooth transitions. While some scenes might feel rushed, if you can move past them once the next segment loads, they’re still enjoyable. I haven’t played Far Cry 4 co-op yet, so I don’t have any feedback on that.
I really liked Skyrim for its rich story and all the details you could uncover. The world was also quite impressive. As for GTA V, I enjoy it mainly when I’m hanging out with friends—whether we’re racing, driving through Mt Chilliad, or just cruising in Los Santos. For me, online play makes a big difference because it lets me have fun with others.
