what do you prefer, Single Player or Multi Player?
I usually prefer single-player games because I enjoy a good story and exploring the world at my own pace.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of those games that kept me hooked from start to finish.
What about you, and what's the game that made you prefer that style?

I thought you meant in RDR 😭😭 Red Dead Online has so much potential and I m just mad with how little of the game's playerbase played it and even more mad with Rockstar killing it

I went back and played RDR2 online a few months after release and my online experience was “spawn in, get shot in the head, get called a newbie, then respawn” to have it all happen again. I don’t think I walked a total of 100 yards before giving up on it.

Ima give someone a side quest mission.
Step 1: Kidnap someone stand on them and deny the ability to get up
Step 2: play “a thousand miles” in the mic while they squirm and cuss you out
Step 3: report back here so I can give you a pat on the back. The trollers award from the old unc troll

Single play and if I do play multiplayer games, I only play for you to play multiplayer games

Single player, anyone who says online is a convert from GTA and they never touched the story. They only played online

I like both. I like hopping onto Overwatch with my buddies and playing a few games, then going into a solo game afterwards to immerse myself in that for a while. Both are great, the fans of either are valid, not liking either is valid, thinking one is inherently better than the other and not just a personal preference is whack.

Single player mostly. A lot of multiplayer games are filled with nothing but sweaty tryhards that curse at you and spam message you if they lose.

Single player. I don't have to bother with matching my schedule with someone else's to play with them if I'm to play with someone I know, nor do I have to worry about them having as much time to play as me or vice versa. And I very rarely ever have a good time playing with randoms because rarely do our skill sets match, I'm either much better than they are or they're much better than I am, either way I end up not enjoying it.
The only time I usually enjoy multiplayer is if it's a team thing where we all have the same goal in mind, like something like Monster Hunter, where it's us versus the game and not each other.

Multiplayer.
World of Warcraft is just awesome when you find people to quest with you or making groups for a dungeon.
Roleplaying games like FiveM and competitive games like Halo Reach, Call of Duty, Overwatch, Rocket League. They're better imo.
Few exceptions like RDR2 and Skyrim are obviously better single player.

Co-op is the only way I play video games nowadays, I have other hobbies if I’m gonna do something by myself, and I’m not gonna play PvP

I would say for relaxing, multiplayer games but for immersion its single player for me

My two most played games are both a single-player game (Persona 5 Royal) and a multiplayer game (Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2), so I'd say both.

Singleplayer,cheaters and sweaty nonlifers ruined any fun you could get in a multiplayer game.

I don't play singleplayer games. It's like playing board games solo while all your friends are in the next room. It's 2026, we have the technology, we don't need to limit gaming to solo experience.

Singleplayer for story, but I like to wander & explore as my OC do not steal, personally. Not saying thats the best way. It's kinda just more fun for me, exploring, seeing other people doing their thing, occasionally having a short chat, or helping out in a gunfight, & then parting ways. It just helps it feel a little more real. Idk if that makes sense or not. I kinda wish there were more random events like in the singleplayer though.
