I guess I just don't get the tribalism here. Both are cool in different ways.
Singleplayer games offer a more curated experience. A story and a set of hand-crafted challenges. But that generally means finishing one and moving onto the next, rather than really sinking my teeth in it.
Multiplayer games offer a neverending challenge. There's always a better opponent. And I've made a lot of good friends through these communities.
Never been a multiplayer fan, reading the above its the same story as many other hobbies and recreations tho right?
....which requires continuous ongoing investment to overcome or even compete
...who has more time or resource to put into getting better
...because they attract similar minded people, but there's also toxic dickheads as well
I feel like the good bits and the bad hits of community are the community
