I absolutely do not want this. I play TLOU for the immersion and the story. As soon as you add multiplayer you can throw immersion out the window, and I just don't see how they can make a multiplayer game story-focused.
I'm scared they'll go the gta route and abandon the single player for a long time so they can focus on mtx bullshit. Whatever they're doing is almost certainly taking time away from TLOU 3
As a counterpoint, tlou 1 already had multiplayer. It was immersive, and it was very good. On the topic of a story in multiplayer games, that's a very common thing these days. It's different than a single-player story because, of course, it is, but they are finding ways of doing it.
I don't particularly care for a ltou standalone multiplayer, I doubt I'd pay new game prices for it. But I don't find your arguments for why they shouldn't do it very compelling
Yup. Unless this is going to be used in the third game as well, move on I say.
