too bad it is only single player

[BlueLightning]

This game seem to be looking great. its making me feel the old days when i wanted FF 10 to have multiplayer.

[MetallicaR8]

multiplayer involves sacrifices. They seem to have gone all out on a great single player experience

[BlueLightning]

yeah i understand that. seems hard to do the exploration and stuff on multiplayer

[Axelhander]

Would be nice. I still remember the halcyon days of playing FF6 multiplayer on my SNES. One of the few turn-based RPGs with a co-op feature.

Lol, if there was multiplayer they would infest it with micro-transactions. Hell to the no.

What? No they wouldn't. It's still the same studio, they're the decision makers, and they don't seem the infest-it-with-microtransactions-type, at least not yet anyway. BG3 also has multiplayer btw, plenty of games without microtransactions that have multiplayer!

As for the topic, FFIX was listed as singleplayer but actually had a partial multiplayer mode too, where you could assign your party members to the different controllers you had plugged in, so your friends/siblings could play some of your party members in battle, that wasn't the most expansive multiplayer ever but I appreciated it lol.

I think Lord of the Rings The Third Age had the same feature and that game basically WAS just Final Fantasy X (but Lord of the Rings).

I'm fine with this game being singleplayer (and really looking forward to it!) but I do like those kind of little extra multiplayer features too lol.

More like "Lucky us it's single player only".

Let's be honest, multi-player would add nothing for this kind of game but lowered content.

it depends if it takes a very long time to get multiplayer working then sure they might cut back on other things. but if the combat had multiplayer options they can do everything the same except multiplayer combat like LOTR third age

multiplayer means cheaters, server costs, and other headaches. single player games are a lot better.

Local multiplayer and Peer 2 Peer online multiplayer doesn't require any of those things. Which is more in line with how multiplayer for a game like this would work (like Divinity Original Sin 2 or The Lord of the Rings the Third Age or Final Fantasy IX).

Don't poo poo fun multiplayer features!

Heck yeah it was!

[DmonHiro]

I absolutely do not want them to have multi-player. Focus on single-player and deliver on that, please.

I never played lotr third age but i know dos2 multiplayer and its slaps

(It can be chaotic becuz of the dos2's certain canon events in every fight like covery everywhere with oil and poison then exploding everything in visible combat zone)

Glad it's singleplayer we have too many MP focused games these days.

[Ratsplat]

Casuals would just want to be carried by people that parry, and people that can parry wouldn't want to play with casuals.

Though friends? They'd enjoy playing together.
