![]() ![]() Hope that alleviates some confusion for the OP. So those would be the reasons that people such as I stick to one game. I was never the "gotta finish the game" kind of guy, I was always the "I want to get better at this game." Even with Pokemon back in the day, I found myself beating the Elite 4 or Ash or whoever was the final boss, and then still playing long after, perfecting my roster and collecting Pokemon, instead of starting over or moving on. I'd rather invest time into something I know I can come back to or continue whenever I want for any reason. If I know it's going to end, even when I might not expect it to, or want it to end, then I don't like that idea. And on a final note, I find the "finality" of single player games to be deterring. I like being able to share my experiences with other people. Don't get me wrong, if I go out and get the latest CoD or Halo or what have you, I'll finish the campaign, but ultimately I play it for the online portion. I just think that the idea of communicating with others is so appealing. ![]() If it can't connect to the internet for multiplayer, I haven't been playing it. ![]() Also, I have found myself playing no single-player games for like at least the passed 2-4 years. I prefer to spend my time perfecting my gameplay in something that I know I'll be playing for a long time. I find myself turned off by the idea of learning new controls all the time, and figuring out new systems. I like to dally in some of the other big names from different genres from time to time, but MMO's always have my primary focus. I think for me it's a personal connection with my characters and my progression in the games. Kind of crazy to think that way I know, but MMO's just really grab a hold of me. Playing other games felt like I was wasting my game time. But yeah, what it always boiled down to with me, when I was a hardcore, dedicated WoW player, was that there was always something I could be doing in WoW. As much as my fingers desire to talk about why I switched MMO's, that's for another thread entirely. For 5 years it was WoW, and only up until recently (about 3 weeks or so) ago did I finally quit WoW and move on to GW2. But ultimately 95-99% of my gaming time is spent in MMO's. I'll also play League of Legends from time to time. What it comes down to for me is like, when does the new CoD or Halo come out, and I'll play that on the side for a couple months or so. For me, I could be considered an "MMO-only" player to an extent. ![]()
