Live service multi-player games are dying. Not triple A games as a while. Games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and God of War for example made huge amounts of money. What we are seeing is single player games going back back to a rise. <br><br>When multi-player was first introduced, it changed the gaming industry and more and more games began relying more on the multi-player aspect and less of single player stories. Look at Call of Duty for example. They used to have a wonderful story mode, Black Ops and Modern Warfare are still my favorite. Now these story modes have been dropped for live service multi-player. <br><br>Over time, many developers noticed how they could introduce micro transactions and experimenting began as to how far they can go. At first it was cosmetics such as costumes or different weapons. Patches also began to become a part of the industry. Before live service multi-player, games had to be fully developed and working before being released for sale. There was not such thing as patches. But now as we can see companies have become lazy, and now are abusing patches as an excuse to not fully developing a game. <br><br>So in the end the truth is not all triple A games are crashing. It's just live service multi-player. People are tired of paying full price for a game that's broken, or unfinished. People are also tired of games that focus on multi-player and are moving back to games that are more focused on single player that they can enjoy. Not everyone likes multi-player now, it's an old fad. The multi-player Era is coming to an end, but single player is on the rise.,(reply>), @Terry Mchelmenfelter I'm from the nes era too. Colecovision era even. I like online gaming for you sports games. Other kind of games i rather play by myself. And dlc only when free,(reply>), Played A LOT of Borderlands 1 &amp;2 then got the Handsome Jack collection and did it again.,(reply>), @Albrecht Vorn jrpgs all the way,(reply>), @Brian Cornell, I'll have to check out borderlands. my friends and I are from the Nes/Sega Genesis era, and we're just tired of the competitive stuff. We want to play games, relax, and not worry about try hards, or griefers.,(reply>), @Terry Mchelmenfelter Well me and many of my friends are from the PS1 and Nintendo 64 Era. And we are tired of multi-player games and live service games. We are all going back to more single player driven games and not going to be buying very much multi-player games anymore. And judging from the few other likes I received, other people are tired of the live service multi-player games as well. There is nothing wrong with Co op games. I enjoy them too, but a true Co op experience like Borderlands 2 is getting harder to come by since most multi-player games are live service. Not everyone enjoys playing with others. Some of us prefer playing alone and having our nice single player games. My current favorite is Tales of Berseria. 50 hours in, not even halfway through the story. JRPGS will always be the best for me and my group of friends.
