Swen Vincke, the founder of Larian Studios and director of Baldur's Gate 3, argues against the notion that single-player video games are dead, asserting that they must simply be well-made to succeed. He highlights the pitfalls of the current trend towards multiplayer and live-service games, which can carry greater risks. Vincke emphasizes that successful games often stem from a genuine passion to create something unique, rather than from commercial pressures or market share objectives. Recent successes in the single-player genre further support his perspective.
That time of the year again when big single-player games are declared dead. Use your imagination. They're not. They just have to be good.
A studio made their a game because they wanted to make a game they wanted to play themselves... They didn’t have to meet arbitrary sales targets or fear being laid off.
