That's an interesting point of view. Do you think single player games may still be able to attain success in the current landscape?

- meatcar 13y agoKerbal Space Program has a sizeable community, and is single player, and real fun to play.
- potatolicious 13y agoCheck out the massive communities built around strategy games like Civilization - I think SP games are doing well. That said, IMO the social and community aspects are just icing on the cake. A game gains no traction unless it's a good game first. The community that grows around it are an accelerant for future growth, but will not exist at all if it weren't for a solid game underneath.

- Tiktaalik 13y agoDark Souls has a similar style of community, where due to the opaque and difficult gameplay lots of community discussion is necessary and live streaming is common.
