Fully Priced Multiplayer Gaming With Little Content
Games aren’t cheap to make, we’re very aware of that. There’s always some new technology to incorporate, prettier graphics to make, and advertisement campaigns to be run. We get that. But, even with that being said, we’ve seen some truly impressive titles hit store shelves. Games like Call of Duty: Black Ops III launched for the standard price and included 4 modes, a wide selection of maps, single player and multiplayer activities including PvP and Co-op, and it looked damn good.
Unfortunately, the same year also gave us Evolve. A game that had very little to offer other than its asynchronous multiplayer gimmick and loads of DLC and microtransactions. The single player campaign was just the multiplayer with bad AI, and you were stuck using characters you didn’t care about until you could unlock one of the only three beasts available. Star Wars: Battlefront had a similar problem. Although it was very fun, it was very light on content. There’s only so far devs can fall back on the “it’s expensive to make games” excuse when titles like Call of Duty, The Witcher 3, Splatoon, Bloodborne, and Fallout 4 all exist at the same price point.
We don’t mind paying, but please make it worth it.
