    Lol. What? I like single-player games, but I mostly agree with this person. Most of the challenging games are SP (primarily) all the souls/souls likes are SP. Not liking NMS is not even close to being the same as not liking SP games. People are allowed to not like NMS. It’s boring and grindy and it (to me) never feels like you’re progressing in any meaningful way.

    If you like it, that’s fine. It doesn’t mean anyone who doesn’t doesn’t like SP games.

      That makes sense, it sounds like you just want a game to offer you a challenge vs being a chill experience. NMS, Satisfactory, Minecraft etc are very much not that game.

      Your other comments made it sound like you don’t value a game unless it’s a competitive multiplayer experience.

        Those weren’t my comments, but I do agree with them. I like MC and Satisfactory. I don’t like NMS. I like chill games, but I don’t generally like ones that make you grind the same crap continuously for seemingly no reward or reason.

        NMS is not a perfect game. People are allowed to dislike it without disliking and single specific attribute of it. I don’t like NMS probably for similar reasons to not liking Starfield. It’s just pointless junk to keep me playing longer, without any reason for me to actually do so. What am I going to get out of continuing? Seeing more similar randomly generated stuff?
