Is Starfield’s Single Player Focus a Blessing in Disguise for Bethesda’s Upcoming Masterpiece?

This is the year for massive, big-budget adventures to launch. From PlayStation to Nintendo Switch to Xbox, pretty much every console is getting an exclusive or two. Everyone knows that Xbox users are excited about a little game called Starfield.

Bethesda’s latest adventure is a sci-fi thriller set in a universe where humanity has finally succeeded in setting up outposts in space. This game would allow players to explore 1000+ planets and do a number of things that every space travel enthusiast wishes they could do. This game would be all single-player, and this might make it miles better.

Starfield being a single player is not a half-bad thing!

A few years ago, when EA launched the reboot of fan-favorite Star Wars title Battlefront, people hated that it was multiplayer only. EA did something similar with their Xbox-exclusive title Titanfall. Then EA even went on record, saying single-player games are dead and there’s no future in them. It turned out they had to take all that back very soon.

Games like Spider-Man, God of War, etc. did insanely well. Fans everywhere were mocking EA for that unusual statement. All in all, it was proven that single-player experiences still sell. So much so that even EA has released a bunch of single-player games over the years.

Bethesda, on the other hand, has strayed from making single-player games only once. Their massive multiplayer game is not doing very well anyway. Hence, Bethesda went back to the drawing board and continued their work on a single-player-only game. As a result, Starfield would be a single-player experience. This is not a bad thing, either. Being a single-player game, it would also prevent players from having any pointless distractions.

Developing a single-player-only game without having to worry about the multiplayer mode of this game.  Thanks to Bethesda’s having to only work on a single-player game, fans would be treated to an even more detailed world. A game world full of possibilities that no multiplayer game would have a chance of having.

Single-player games are more open yet detailed experiences. This is why Starfield not having a multiplayer mode is much better. The game would be releasing very soon, and it’s a certainty that Bethesda players would have a much better time with it than any multiplayer game out there.
