gaming Poll: Are you more of a single player or multiplayer guy when it comes to video games?

[Chadbacca 375]

I will openly admit these days that 95 to 99% of my gaming time is mainly single player. That being said, I can enjoy a good multiplayer game if there's enough people playing like Among Us.

[Awkward Segway 317]

Single player, almost exclusively.

[ZiggWheelsManning 10,362]

Wanting to be a multiplayer guy, but the servers on the EA games just don't provide any luck  

[Megas 27,652]

I'm literally one of the 5 people who buy most CoD games for singleplayer. I can appreciate a decent singleplayer even if sometimes it's an afterthought(Ghosts was kinda shit, AW and WWII feel very safe). Never gave a shit about multiplayer. If a game doesn't have singleplayer, I almost never touch it(the one exception is the first Titanfall and even then once the second one came out I have all but forgotten about it)

I’m exclusively single player, save for a very handful of times. And those were only for PS3, since it was free, but in today’s consoles I don’t pay for a service I won’t use much anyway

[Evil Pink One 13,506]

Only multi when monster hunting

Being mostly a single player is probably the main reason Nintendo being "behind the standards of online multiplayer" compared to its competitors has never been a compelling factor for me to quit them.

[SaburoDaimando 1,196]

Single Player, obviously.  It's like picking up a good book and reading it. 

[Deae Rising Shine~ 55,499]

Singleplayer, nowadays I only play a MP in a game if it's not riddled with hackers(As a trophy hunter, trophy hackers are the worst) and if it has mp trophys.

[cuteycindyhoney 13,307]

I'm more of an ignore the gamers and read a book!

LOL!

(Not a gamer, just passing through!)

[Misty Shadow 7,892]

Single-player to the core. No contrarianism here, I also almost exclusively play games by myself. Not opposed to the idea of playing a game I really enjoy with friends though. 

[Tom Gallagher 33,588]

I'm not much of a sociable gamer so unless my sister wants to play a game with me, I normally use single player. 

[Northern Star 1,024]

Multiplayer is ok but it seems like any game I actually liked the multiplayer on they somehow managed to  change it so I no longer liked it.

And then the games where multiplayer would be nice, there isn't.

[Sphinx-Ara 3,569]

Single player... Multiplayer is mostly toxic these days unfortunately

[Astralshy 26,715]

In general I'm more a single player, but not exclusively. I had many negative experiences with Multiplayer though there were also some positive exceptions.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

Usually singleplayer, but there are some games that I'll play multiplayer on (or some that are pretty much online only).

[joanro 247]

Definitely more of a multiplayer guy. If I could only play single player games, I probably would not game nearly as much as I do. I just find most single player games to be pretty boring. If I have the option to play online with others, I would much rather do that.

I am mostly a single player person, especially when it comes to retro games on the NES, SNES, etc.

But depending on what the game is, and if the multiplayer is online on, let's say, the Xbox 360, multiplayer is my go-to for games like, Call of Duty, GTA, etc.

I mostly play single player games on retro consoles, considering I am a retro gamer.

[Oleks 1,993]

Single player. Team work and competition are not my things.  I wouldn't mind trying to play a TBS with a friend though. 

[Evil Pink One 13,506]

No wonder its hard to find a MH:RISE to play with this group!... A lot are single players here.

[ExplosionMare 18,063]

Ever since I got into FNAF I’ve been more of a single player person but I still like multiplayers every now and then

[EpicEnergy 23,218]

I like playing cooperative multiplayer video games nowadays, but I also play single player games just as much.

[Vefka 1,499]

I like games with a good story, characters and cutscenes. Multiplayer games rarely intersect with my interests (the last one was A Way Out), so I'm mainly a singleplayer guy

But I love playing coop games with my friends every now and then

I like single player since I usually can get my ass kicked in multi player.

[TBD 17,254]

I’m more of a single player guy. I like playing at my own pace and way without other players judging me or telling me what to do. Let alone since I can sometime switch back and forth from being casual to competitive player so- I think it’s best for me to play alone. Although that doesn’t mean I can’t Co-op, since playing with friends is fun. However most of the time I’d coop is when my friends needs my help.  But I always prefer going solo in most part.
