You have to be a special kind of stupid to think games that rely on things like immersion, mood, power fantasies,... can be improved by adding multiplayer.
would work playing with friends, if not with tensile randoms
It can definitely work. Some of my fondest memories in multiplayer are me playing Arma 3 on a hardcore milsim server. The immersion was unmatched for me but it’s hard to replicate. It requires everyone to play along and that just doesn’t always happen.
So I’m not inherently super skeptical about the multiplayer aspect.
