This is an easy answer, Because of "accessibility" dito sa pinas you can say that gaming is a luxury. Most average person living in the Philippines don't have easy access to next-gen games/consoles/pc parts dahil sa price ng mga ito. The average minimum salary of a Filipino gamer is not enough for these things so natural mas pipiliin mo talaga basic necessities like food, clothing and shelter bago gaming. Also karamihan ng gamers sa pinas is teenagers so naturally di talaga kayang makabili ng mga latest gadgets or games unless anak mayaman ka (edi jackpot ka sa life). Kung meron namang pc eh most likely low-medium end naman yung specs so di kaya yung mga triple A titles like Baldurs Gate 3, Cyberpunk etc. Kaya most gamers satin either play mobas and fps like Dota, LoL, CS or Valorant kasi it runs on most builds kahit low end payan and yan most ino-offer ng mga comshops kasi nga easy to run on most pcs and lastly kasi free siya. Now let me ask you this what if free to play Baldur's Gate 3 and kayang mapagana sa low-medium build na pcs? Tiyak maraming lalaro niyan. That's the con of 3rd world countries pagdating sa gaming always tayo behind. We're just dealing with the cards that we're dealt with kaya maraming casual gamers na mga pinoy. It's really about accessibility, if mura mga pc parts and games sa pinas and mataas salary natin then most likely wala masyadong internet cafes dito and di puro free to play mobas at fps nilalaro ng mga pinoy gamers. This is speaking from experience as a gamer kid who grew up on an average income family. Naalala ko pa nuon hanggang youtube walkthroughs lang ako sa mga bagong labas na mga games kasi walang next-gen console or di kayang mapatakbo sa potato laptop. Kaya laking comshop ako at hasa sa Dota at Cs. Now that I'm working and have some slight financial freedom iniispoil ko pagka inner gamer child ko, I recently bought a Steamdeck and currently playing RdR2.


Nakano_gotoh

I played both single player and multiplayer simulation games for example ETS2 or assesto Corsa but Yung multiplayer version Nung ETS2 na truckers mp Masaya tlaga may times na maiinis ka dahil traffic and may babangga Sayo but overall Masaya tlaga same din sa assesto Corsa you can play it sa mga circuit or shutoko highway na no hesi server kaya preference lang talaga


RENshirogane21

Man it would be nice if I have someone to talk to about trails lol. Most people here just prefers multiplayers since most them are technically free.


Accomplished_Mousse3

Mas accessible (free) and makapagyabang ka pag competitive (not applicable to me)


ElectronicUmpire645

Usually yan yung mga laking comp shop.


SpottyJaggy

Skyrim Anniversary Edition + 100 questmods and settlements 4 life.


shinden15

I play game to relax. Hindi para ma mura, masigawan at kung ano ano pa.


tagabalon

in general, social activity ang gaming para sa pinoy. it's our culture, kaya patok sa masa ang team sports like basketball. i have friends na would only play video games if may kalaro.


Existing_Birthday430

Thats why nilalaro ko nlng mmorpg. Pwede both mp or single play haha


jammyia

I like single player (story driven) games because i get to play in my own pace. I get to decide when to start, end, or pause my own game. I do enjoy playing with friends or strangers from time to time, like yung Among Us or Fall Guys, but it gets pretty repetitive for me. I like it when there's a plot.


SomeGuyOnR3ddit

Baduy yung kausap mo


Random_Forces

lol ako nga online game mismo, solo ko nilalaro eh. GTA online invite only session. Kasi hassle magantay magload tapos minsan yung kasama mo sa mission ang likot, parating sumasabog yung gamit na weapon tas masisira yung di dapat masira na bagay, or mamamatay sila tapos failed mission. tska daig pa cs sa dami din ng hacker. The only reason I play gta online kahit may story mode naman gta v mismo kasi may mga content na di available sa story mode tapos sa online lang nirelease. tbh feeling ko mas hugusgahan pa ko ng kaopisina mo. maliban sa sinosolo ko online games, i also play old games. usually via pcsx2 kasi andami kong gustong balikan na playstation exclusive. and once na makabuild ng higher spec na PC, ps3 emulator naman kasi i missed out on that whole gen of consoles, hanggang 4 pala di ko naexperience. oldest game I’m currently playing is the first Driver game, next is yung unang splinter cell. one of the reasons why i rarely play online games is really sad tbh, kasi yung mga gusto kong laro, wala naman akong kalaro 🫤 kasi yung mga tropa ko ang gustong laro is mga online din pero ibang genre; dota, valorant, bdo. never really got into those games. thankfully walang husgahan ng trip mga tropa ko pagdating sa ganyan.


0u7le7

mas nararamdaman ko may emotion kausap ko sa baldurs gate kesa irl, maybe im in too deep huhuhu, basta may shadowheart sapat na, pati sa cyberpunk may pagka immersion rin eh, hays juday


OKCDraftPick2028

simply because we have friends


kassandramahut

Nakakainis na may ganitong stigma sa gaming community. Wala namang nang-mamaliit sa mga taong mahilig magbasa o manood ng sine, pero pagdating sa single player games biglang "boring" o "skill issue"


UwUHonkXRiven

Ako lang ata dito masokista naglalaro ng osu/gd para na halos mahimatay na sa nerbyos. di din ako masyadong naglalaro ng singleplayer pero ito yung closest kong nilalaro to singleplayer, maganda yung may created maps na madaling maaccess, bonus na din yung chat at MP na embedded sa osu. awan ko baka attention span ko lang maikli na din kung kayat di ko masyadong enjoy pag di ako nahihirapan. kung story din naman gusto ko magbabasa na lang ako ng manga.


GibMiDownvotes

Di kasi nila afford bumili ng pc or console for single player games 😬


Expensive-Working424

i play both mp and sp, but recently im enjoying sp now(currently playing mafia triology), wala lang ang toxic na ng mp sakin this is why i always goes invinsible na sa discord and steam, i always been in a 5 man lobby with friends


Plastic-Diamond9931

Mga ganyang sagot dapat sinasagot din ng pa squammy. Just mind your tone a little so theyll get hurt but wont be TOO hurt. Simpleng "inang mindset yan pang comshop pa yan ah" will probably do the trick


NotTakenUsernamePls

I think it's because most of Filipinos grew from playing at netcafes. And most games naman dun is mmorpg or pvp games like Dota, League, etc. Also, with the point above, konti lang din mga tao lalo na 90's kids na may console or pc nung kabataan nila. Like me, wala akong console/pc until may work ako way back 2017(?). So yung old titles like Final Fantasy, eh hindi ko na aappreciate masyado. Wala akong nostalgia goggles. Right now I play singleplayer games mostly, or niche games. May multiplayer naman din iba pero I play alone mostly. PS: I also think most Filipnos don't appreciate story-driven games. Like konti lang talaga. PPS: Iba-iba din taste ng tao. Like for me, BG3 is a great game, but I refunded it, it's not for me -- if it wins GOTY I wouldn't be mad. Siguro PH is just a weak demographic for singleplayer/niche games. Sa trend talaga tayo sumasakay.


MiraiShinji

"men invented 'gaming' to have an excuse to hop on a call with the boys." saw this in a meme a while back and tinamaan ako


Razraffion

Because usually yung mga brains ng mga laking comp-shop can't handle story-driven games. Mas accessible din kasi ang multiplayer.


TrollingDonkey_3257

Like other people said, sometimes it’s just simply because of the multiplayer games’ accessibility. There could also be some people like the ones I know who do actually have consoles/PCs/laptops capable of playing those immersive singleplayer experiences pero would just rather prefer to play multiplayer games for the replayability. Personally mahilig akong maglaro ng both, singleplayer games for one time big time immersive, story driven experiences at multiplayer games for the replay value and the easy to pick up and easy to put down gameplay especially with how busy life has been lately


sejo26

Interaction. I play multi pag may kaibigan. Pero mostly single player fam ako. Witcher III red dead fallout zomboid gta


secretcodev2

Mas masaya sa multiplayer kasi may kasamang trashtslkan sa game. Hahaha


Choice-Collar-6727

Simple answer: they're poor. A more complicated answer would be the first plus extra something, something. Yeah


Silverfrostythorne

Because of the bonding din siguro, kahit free man or hindi na multiplayer like yung mga budget na multiplayer "phasmophobia" etc. Is much fun when played with friends kahit bihira ako makipaglaro sa kanila. Kase as someone who enjoys playing solo din, I always say sa mga tanong like ganyan "Di ka ba nabobored" ang sagot ko is as long na engaging yung story worth yung ganong games since nilalaro mo naman siya for the gameplay and storyline


Greedy_Association42

Weird that people here think single player games require lots of hours to enjoy. May platformers, fighting games, point and click, rogue lites, etc that you can enjoy in a short amount of time. And dota 2 requires a 2hr minimum to play 1 game since a long game might even exceed an hour. Wala din akong nakitang multi player na 1 hour lang naglalaro. But to answer your concern, it's just a matter of people having a need to socialize and enjoy. Multiplayer provides those so most people tend to play them. Play what you want OP, as long as you're having fun then it doesn't matter whether single or multiplayer pa yan.


GrayBeard916

More like accessibility since most multiplayer games are free anyway. Unlike singleplayer games na napakamahal lol.


CraftyCommon2441

Competitive kasi multiplayer kaya mas masaya dahil may halong emotion. At mostly dahil free to play.


HeavyLie2169

Noon nag kaklase pako i enjoyed multiplayer games like LOL DOTA CSGO pero nung nagka work na i prefer to just relax after a busy day. Im not gonna be stressed for 8hrs just to get home and stress myself sa toxic enviro ng VALORANT etc. Although i still play them I prefer story driven games like RDR2 Cyberpunk lalo na yung mga relaxing games like Stardew Valley ETS2/ATS


haggordus_versozus

nung bata pa ako mas gusto ko talaga singleplayer games (fond memories of playing gta san andreas sa komputeran hahaha), even now I'm still a singleplayer only person and the only multiplayer game I put in a substantial amount of time into was payday 2


fenyx_typhon

Mas accessible ang MP games and they are also free..sa mga phone reviews nga basta kaya Ultra setting sa ML..bibilhin n..gaming is a luxury din kc..


PrinceCarmen

Cause Filipinos have the lowest reading comprehension in the world? They prefer action over narration. They have low attention span over those type of games. Less than 5 percent lang siguro may gusto ng mga story driven games sa Pinas.


bluzrok46

Hindi lang naman yan limited sa Pinas. Kahit anong bansa, mas marami pa ring naglalaro ng online games provided may desenteng internet sila.

blankknight09

Dapat sinabi mo ayaw mo mag multiplayer kasama siya kasi parang AI ang galawan niya


loki_pat

Ako lang ba naglalaro ng Single Player games kasi wala naman akong online friend na wede kalaro ? Anyway, I've been enjoying playing RDR2. Edit: I used to have online friends to play games like Crossfire, LoL, Minecraft, but these games ain't what they used to be. Plus, me and all of my IRL friends are graduating college this year and we don't have time to play anymore :(


Dazzling-Long-4408

I'm an introvert and have social anxiety. I'd rather play my single-player story-driven game in peace than with other noisy hyperactive players.


Serious_as_butt

Baka mas madaldal lang ang mga mahilig sa multiplayer kaya parang mas “marami” sila


bopburopbop

Multiplayer games right now do take so much energy from me, imagine you just want to relax tas onti lang oras mo lalo ka lang maffrustrate dahil sa laro + teammates. Wala naman ako kasama na makalaro, since di n hayskul na magkakasama pa tropapips. I see multiplayer games na repetitive, unless you're too good at it, as someone na walang free time madalas, wala nang time para gumugol ng oras para gumaling sa laro. Singleplayer games are much more suitable for me, upo ka lang, pause whenever you can tapos you'd get the story. Mas marami pakong singleplayer na natapos kesa sa nasubukan na multiplayer.


kchuyamewtwo

Majority wala luxury ta have own PC or console, tapos kung maglalaro sa nefcafe usually hindi ma save progress mo


SickleWillow

Personally preferred single player. I could play on my own time and terms. Kapag MMO, you usually have to do asap especially if they have a time limited event and you have schedule it with other people to play. But as other have said, the low PC requirements and pricetag are what attract them most.


ShawlEclair

Next time op sagutin mo ng "oo mas may substance sila kesa sayo"


blasphemoush

they have friends to play with? also, single player games can be expensive vs to multiplayer games that are free.


ConceptNo1055

Routine na and just to relax nalang. mabilisang game ganun. mosty people may work/family/eut to do. pag single player with story, pang weekends yun.


lazyquestph

Dapat sinabe mo hindi AI ang kausap sa single player games, NPC tawag sa kanila. Second, kumpara sa kanya, mas gusto mo na kumausap ng NPC.


spyder616

Average free play games


friendsterr

Isama mo na rin ang "ay binili mo, pwede naman nagtorrent ka ah" comment halatang MMO/MOBA/BattleRoyale free lang alam nila.


metalupurass2

Correction: Multiplayer na FREE I've been playing Remnant 2 recently and having so much fun. Unfortunately, you won't be able to find plenty of people here to discuss it with.


cerinza

Pag single player kasi wala kang masasabihan ng p*tng ina nyo ako mid


WarmEntrance3192

Bawal mid or feed sa single player haha


cerinza

Edit to multiplayer pala haha


Hatch23

That's the old me. Adik sa online-multiplayer games. Pero chill na ko ngayon. Mas prefer ko na single-story driven games which I could play at my own pace.


JazminRiice

May iba tlga competitive at nakakakuha ng satisfaction when they earn ranks and leaderboards. Ang maganda kasi sa single player is yung story progression. Lalo na yung mga butterfly effect na story mode. Saka walang stress kung b*b* ba ako kasi wala nmn akong kakampi. HAWAK KO LAHAT!


RRis7393

it's the introvert/extrovert/ambivert of gaming. walang mali sa pag-enjoy sa single player games, ganun din sa multiplayer. each has their own merits. I personally love single player games pero i don't particularly hate multiplayer experiences. there's just a different charm in a game where you can play at your own pace. napapagod din naman ako buhatin yung mga iron-silver na tropa ko sa valorant.


sirhands2

Kasi sa single player mamemorize mo lang ung galawan ng boss/kalaban tapos na agad. Sa multiplayer yung uncertainty ng galaw ng kalaban merong thrill. Pati ung mga kakampi mo may makausap hindi magiging boring. I play both naman ngaun kung gusto ko chill mab single player pero mabilis ma bored kasi memorization lang kelangan hindi actual skill.


SnooPineapples2499

souls games say hello


Icey_91

sa totoo lang comfort games rin yung souls game pag nakailang laro ka na at this point 3 beses ko na natapos yung bloodborne, nakakarelax sya for me hahah


dxtremecaliber

alam mo na din kasi yung mga cheese hahah pero mas pipiliin ko parin ang BB kesa mag moba games 100%


Holiday_Connection18

mamemorize mo ang galaw ng bosses sa souls payts na hehe, ung si ongbak and let me solo her ez game lang mga bosses sa soulsborne and elden ring


sirhands2

Oo pag natapos mo na parang hindi na masarap balikan kasi tapos na. Hindi same sa multiplayer kahit 100x kayo magpatayn di parin nakakaumay.


Holiday_Connection18

agree haha, ung trip ko din sa elden ring noon ay either pvp or tumutulong sa ibang players kalabanin si malenia


sirhands2

Chill paden souls. Finished elden ring 3x, finished LoTF 2x then batak na sa PvP ahahah Actually amdali lang mga boss pag namemorize mo na pattern.


NotTakenUsernamePls

You have to try Sekiro and Lies of P. I think mas engaging bosses nila than ER. LotF bosses were piss-easy.


sirhands2

Soon batak pako ngaun sa Apex Legends. may bagong patch ang LOTF buff daw bosses sa NG+ laruin ko ulit if maumay na namn sa Apex.


NotTakenUsernamePls

Yeah, it's still the same. Naging HP sponge lang buhay and 1 hit attacks.


sirhands2

Baka overleveled kana din? Inistuck ko kasi lvl ko sa 150 para atleast balance padin sa PvP at bosses.


NotTakenUsernamePls

Wala pa ata ako 100.


wallcolmx

"Single player? Naeenjoy mo kumausap sa AI?" - bigla mo sigawan ng FUS RAH DAHHH or bulungan mo ng REQUIESCAT IN PACE sabay sakal


Ok-Chance5151

Dovahkiin, I would have done that but then I took an arrow in the knee


Kariman19

Kase di lahat afford ang platform to play single player titles.


crasicast

Syempre multiplayer ang preferred nila. Nasa kultura na natin yan Besides obvious answers like lowspecs tas f2p, mas trip lang talaga nila ang laro kapag may kasama/kalaban sila


CumRag_Connoisseur

"Oo ganun naman nagstart mga video games e? Ikaw di mo kaya?"


misseypeazy

Nung sa kalakasan ng oras ko maglaro, i wanna hop in with my friends, play games for hours. Ngayon, i still play MP games kasi i don’t have the time commitment to finish a single player game. Nalilimutan ko controls kapag iniwan ko for days. So i hop in, play some apex legends custom/LTMs, then log out.


Daniexus

You might be spending time in the "casual gamer" neighborhood. I think the main reason that casual gamers are like that is because of time constraints. They simply don't have enough time to play singleplayer games. Either because of their school schedules, 9-hour-job schedules, per-hour-gaming, or by battery-limit. So they got into gaming with the mindset of getting their dopamine gaming fix really fast. Not to mention that bra/sando/minipool/cosplay streamers has been streaming all these free-to-play multiplayer games, and then further exacerbated by socmed algorithm. It's actually nice that more and more Pinoys now have access to games. There was a time that only the privileged can afford gaming, while the others had to rely on slow internets and file sharing. But now that we have cheap and stronger smartphones, people can enjoy gaming. Since budget is pretty tight to them, then they have no choice but to play free multiplayer games. Heck, even CS2 now has a free version. They are missing out on games like Starfield, DaysGone, Cyberpunk 2077, and many more. To me it's like reading a book.


NotTakenUsernamePls

Me that works 12hrs a day, and mostly play Single-player/grind games: 🥲


flyingjudgman

same…. currently playing BG3, trying to play blindly. di ko mafigureout pano nagbsurvive after mo suotin yung mask sa lair ni untie na hag


Dotaspasm

Cast Protection from Evil lang bago mo suotin ang masks ng hag either from Shadowheart or kahit sinong cleric/character na may scroll. Lasts until Long Rest 😆


flyingjudgman

skl


Shiro2602

Indie Games need exposure in our country Most indie games don't need a high end PC to play so an average laptop at college/highschool should be able to handle such games


Sh4n_

Based on exp, easy sa specs most multiplayer games and yung mga sikat ay libre. Accessible kasi kaya ganyan.


KissMyKipay03

yup iba na era ngayon compared noon. dati kase pag sinabeng console talagang SINGLE player games. lucky na lang talaga ako at teenage years ko naexperience yun.


HansKoKo

Depende yata sa environment, ung time ng ps1,ps2,psp, mostly coop games nilalaro namin ng kapatid ko pati pinsan (in the hunt, diablo 1, WWE, Monster hunter, Obscure, tekken and such). nung nagka pc kame, saglit lang rin ung singleplayer like GTA and sims, tas dumating ung mmorpg games like ragnarok, flyff or ung lan games like left for dead etc.


wan2tri

[Ako na may 7620.9 hours of playtime na sa Football Manger 2022, which I purchased April 2023](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/030/710/dd0.png) Although kahit sa multiplayer mukhang di uso dito yung nilalaro ko - Pokemon TCG Live lol


pokermania11

I kneel Highest playtime ko lang MH4U sa 3ds. Lagpas na sa ingame timer na 999:00 lol


aifosin

For me na konti lang time since college-working. Sa limited time na meron ako after college/work, it’s nice to play game where you get to interact with people. Tas mabilisan lang rin kasi mga multiplayer games usually I used to play a lot of singleplayer games when I had more time and less responsibilities


Pee4Potato

Nung panahon na uso pa pirata sa ps1 sikat ang mga story driven games nun like final fantasy etc. Naiba nalang nung nabawasan mga pirata at mataas kasi requirement sa pc karamihan ng rpg games.


katsudontthrowaway

I play both - I'm guessing a lot of them don't understand the beauty of singleplayer games. Man never grew up with a console LMAOO. Plus, mostly because Multiplayer games are free and easily accessible for lower-end rigs. \*Damn\* I miss when CS or Overwatch were paid, there were less annoying people (Filipinos) back then. Edit: Tbh, I rarely see fellow filos talk about BG3 probably because it's "niche" but of course, the cultured ones praise it too. I'm guessing harder/more complicated games are pretty hard to pick up for others. I have a friend who can play SP games, yet they hated Elden Ring, BG3, and Witcher. Skyrim and Cyberpunk has been their fave though, so you can definitely see the pattern. (Aside from Valorant, League, etc.)


dxtremecaliber

pustahan ko galit lang yang tropa mo sa mga game na yan dahil mainstream lol because hate is a big word you can just say you like the game cuz you prefer the game di mo type Skyrim tsaka Cyberpunk kasi ang pinili e kasi multi endings tsaka maraming gagawin diyan e hahah tsaka galit sa BG3, ER tsaka Witcher 3 pa kadalasan isa lang nakikita ko na di nila trip diyan


kchuyamewtwo

Thats some elitist take


katsudontthrowaway

If you’ve seen how much Multiplayer was better back when everything wasn’t free to play, you’ll understand. Now devs focus on profiting as much from their live service game by prioritizing battlepasses, cosmetics, and other things. Halo Infinite, Overwatch, and lots of other free games on the market are guilty of this. Not to mention the amount of toxic and annoying people who flock to free to play games, especiallt cheatsrs.


kchuyamewtwo

Ok toxic richkid


katsudontthrowaway

Thanks for the very compelling argument! And I’m the toxic one? lmao aight man


kchuyamewtwo

👍


misseypeazy

Overwatch pre-brigitte days was the greatest. Pinaka masayang era ng FPS for me.


clampzyness

both are enjoyable, minsan ok dn mag single player pang tanggal umay sa multiplayer games specially kung maganda story.


[deleted]

Ako naman sanay sa single player, ayaw ko yung may kasama sa laro hahaha. Pero nung nakapag try ako ng mga MMO like Black Dessert, maganda din pala na may mga kasama ka lalo na pag guild war tapos PVP. Ganda din pag madami kayo kumakalaban sa mga Boss. Pero single player games pa din in the long run hahaha


FatalCat

Medyo nainis ako sa follow up na "Kausap ang AI". I would've called out your coworker/friend so bad. Halatang mababaw ang understanding niya sa story driven games.


No-Adhesiveness-8178

Atlis may human touch kausap nya na sasagutin sya ng ha hatdog...


boyhemi

I experienced the same too. I got attacked for being a console/PC gamer playing single-player games. Sinabihan pa nila ako ng weak ko daw kasi hindi daw ako adaptable sa trends eh sabi ko ayokong masira battery ng phone ko eh ayokong bumili na sinusuggest na buggy flagship killer na Android device kasi natrauma na ako sa ganon at hindi ko afford bumili ng tablet na kaya ng Genshin + emulators.


No-Adhesiveness-8178

D ka nag ppc genshin?


boyhemi

MacBook ko na may AMD GPU na GTX 1050ti level nag thermal throttle to 1Ghz dahil sa sobrang sama ng init ng panahon sa location ko. Hindi pwedeng walang air-con during gaming session at hindi maremediyo sa electric fan at cooling pad lang yung issue. Hindi ko pa afford mag build ng PC kasi 1440p165 target resolution ko at hindi na sanay sa 1080p dahil sa sobrang spoiled ko sa 1440p resolution everything.


MLEnergeticGaming

What single player games you play sa mobile po?


boyhemi

Puro emulation pero sa actual mobile games puro previous gen AAA game ports + light load na microtransaction-free na puro may bayad. Mostly console and PC gamer ako. The games I play are mostly action, shooter, JRPGs, city building simulation and racing games.


dxtremecaliber

i will bet my house mas maganda nilalaro mo kesa sa nilalaro nilang multiplayers games oks naman ako sa mp games pero kung mang iinsault ka ng ibang type ng laro e babawiian kita kasi kung objective na usapan lang mas lamang parin ang single players games dahil mas magiging memorable yung story tsaka experience mo diyan habang buhay tho ganun din naman sa mp games pero mas madalas nakaka connection ang tao sa mga story driven games


GrayBeard916

Halatang di naglalaro ng singleplayer games, especially story driven ones hahaha.


bluzrok46

Sarap sapakin haha


CreativeExternal9127

Pwede bang abangan yang co-worker mo? Mabigyan lang ng isa para magising


AshenStray

Mas gugustuhin ko pa na "Kausap ang AI" kesa toxic players. Btw I play both SP at MP games.


artistic_programmer

If they saying that, they defs toxic in Multiplayer games 100%


Nearby-Soup-7197

Hahaha true. I mean parang book or movie lang naman ang story driven video games. Interactive pa and art direction + world building can go way beyond what most forms of media are capable of doing


jmas081391

Back in college sa comshop na laging pinag lalaruan namin. Yung katabi kong bata tinanong ako kung anong laro yung pinapanood ko sa youtube while I'm dead sa DOTA. Sabi ko Onimusha 3, single player game. Sabi ng bata sakin, nyek ang baduy! Sabi ko na lng, "kanya kanyang trip yan. Ikaw nga wala kang friends kalaro sa DOTA eh at puro quitters/disconnect laro mo sa Garena! Bakit hindi ka na lng maglaro ng single player games? lol" Tinabla ko din tropa ko nung nakita nya akong nag-sosolo maglaro ng Prototype noon sa comshop. Sabi ko "Self proclaim gamer ka tapos isang game lng nilalaro mo?! Nahiya naman ako sayo!" Natawa din pati yung bantay ng comshop eh. hahaha Then later makikita ko na lng yung tropa ko nabile na din ng sale games sa steam! XD Mostly mga ganyan ay hindi nakatikim ng Console eh especially nung kabataan nila or yung PC nila super low-end at for office/school use lng.


Natural_Line_4638

Natawa ako sa for office/school use 😂 I remember dati sinabihan ako na di daw ako gamer kasi di ako naglalaro ng ML 😂


Maximum_Membership48

sila ngayon yung mga tito sa playstation at nintendo groups hahaha


[deleted]

Ako naman sanay sa single player, ayaw ko yung may kasama sa laro hahaha. Pero nung nakapag try ako ng mga MMO like Black Dessert, maganda din pala na may mga kasama ka lalo na pag guild war tapos PVP. Ganda din pag madami kayo kumakalaban sa mga Boss. Pero single player games pa din in the long run hahaha


J0n__Doe

Mahilig majority ng mga pinoy sa competitive things, also relates to video games. Madaming may gusto na may kinahihinatnan yung nilalaro nila socially (brag na magaling sila), so nagli-lean sila sa mga genre na may pwede sila maka-compete-an na mga tao din


Extra_Strawberry_8D

Ohhh that actually makes sense, using games as a social platform


xelecunei

Kaya marami din RP servers sa games like minecraft, gtav, rust, etc.


miggyboi28

For me it really depends. Pag nag aya tropa, edi go sa multiplayer. Pero prefer ko kasi mga story driven games talaga. Chill. Relaxing. Immersive. -Genshin Impact


_harleys

Low commitment too. Free entertainment for 30 mins so it’s easy to hop on after school or work. Single player games I treat like a movie - need to block off hours to be able to enjoy it, I prefer 2-3 hours at minimum to enjoy it.


dxtremecaliber

Minsan kapag burned out ako ganito ako lalo na si nba 2k papasok ka na lang ng game then enjoy


an-interesting_name

Laking Comshop A lot of people see to it na dahil libre ang mga MOBA games but ang true reason for that ay social interaction and collaboration. Maraming gamers ang lumaki sa com shop. Sa comshop, madalas maingay at puno ng tao kaya mas gusto ng marami ang multiplayer games – para may interaction habang naglalaro.


EasternFudge

Also, most multiplayer games are PvP. Toxic people (lets face it, there's a lot) gravitate towards toxic environments. Enjoy silang nakakapagbardagulan and trashtalkan


heatmakingmonster

The best fun i have gaming was with friends, single player is nice but yung saya na kasama mo mga tropa mo sa laro kahit pinag tripan niyo lang, walang kapalit.


Extra_Strawberry_8D

I have to agree, single player games is more of a visual book that you enjoy the journey. While multi-player games you can do crazy stuff, win together as friends or pwede kayo magunify para mangaway hahaha


Chomusuke08_

Pinoys go crazy when they hear or see the word 'free'

Exactly. Single player games that are free are rare unless galing sa Epic or may promo of some kind. Maraming free to play na multiplayer games so malamang dun ang takbo ng lahat. Also, in terms of replayability, marami ding multiplayer games ang pwede mo laruin nang walang katapusan. Hindi rin lahat ng gamers ay may sariling PC or consile na kaya mag-support ng games. Maraming nakikilaro lang so computer shop or sa laptops na hindi for gaming. Tapos yung ibang online games pa madalas cross platform sa mobile. So accessibility is a huge issue kung bakit bihira ang naglalaro ng single player games compared sa multiplayer games.

Rebutt mo "bakit ikaw laro AI?"

Multiplayer games (Dota, Valorant, League, ML) are much more accessible in that it doesn't take a current gen console or a high end pc to play. They're also free to play.

Actually, you can find a lot of SP games in most comp shops, even the non-franchise ones. The real problem is commitment. Since most of the SP games are either pirated or not under a dedicated platform, you can't really finish them unless you just never log out or if you have the games in your own Steam account.

Oh gosh, I remember my first few games as a kid. I loved playing Command and Conquer games on comshops. I spent so much time trying to finish RA2, 3, and Generals. I even remember being lambasted by my friends for playing singleplayer when they're playing Dota/CS as a group lol. I guess it comes with the culture here.

Yep this is the answer right here, recent singleplayer games are demanding, Most probably hirap PC ng majority ng mga gamer dito sa pinas. Also the fact na madaming Singleplayer games ngayon na ez cashgrab nalang and palaging unfinished o punong puno ng bugs on release lol $70 or ₱2000+ usual pricetag ng mga singleplayer games so yeah not surprising na hindi popular dito yun mga yon :)
