Yeah, right.
Like Dungeoin Siege with such a carelessy programmed campaign - and the really great stuff ONLY appeard in MP !
The hubs, for example, are NEVER seen in the campaign !
The bias towards MP games has grown so far that SP games are becoming neglected.
At one point, I'm sure, someone will state in an review that an SP game is a negative. Like you did.
Which means, that SP players become more and more neglected, because MP consumes much, much more work, and SP is considered just an appendix, then.
Once, it was the other way round, when MP was still evolving.
