Der hersker lige nu tvivl om hvorvidt fremtiden for lineære singleplayer-spil ser lys ud, eller om denne genres dage er talte. Der er forskellige teorier, men spørge du en af de udviklere der arbejder hos Guerrilla Games, og for nylig udgav Horizon: Zero Dawn, så er netop det spil beviset på at singleplayer stadig har en fremtid. Tim Stobo har sagt følgende til GameSpot:
"I think Horizon proves that there is a future for a really high quality single-player experience. [The upcoming story expansion Frozen Wilds] proves that again. We're really committed to delivering that high level, quality experience for players. It does seem like maybe there is a business shift in other parts of the industry. But at Guerrilla, we're just focused on telling amazing stories."
"I think it's better to look at it from the other perspective. I think we'll see more games like Destiny and I think there is a place for those. But you look at the best, more lauded games that have come out this year - there is Horizon, Zelda, Shadow of War. There are a lot of amazing single-player experiences. If we also get more always online experiences, I think that's great for the diversity of games."
Er du enig med Stobo? Beviser Horizon: Zero Dawn at lineære singleplayer-spil kan trives på markedet?
