i wonder if one is more addictive than the other. I like the way i can get up at any time in a singleplayer game and get a snack or stretch my legs, i don’t like how multiplayer games require multiple hour long sit downs. The people who seem to grow tired of gaming as a hobby are multiplayer gamers rather than singleplayer gamers (i’m generalising).
You might, if you believe VGs are bad or everyone should be outdoors as much as possible, argue that videogames are therefore supposed to be multiplayer games for teenagers that we get tired of - that it trains kids and young adults to associate social company with game time. But i don’t support this myself.

There’s no shortage of multiplayer games with short match lengths. Fighting games are like ~3 minutes on average, and you can just stop clicking rematch when you want to take a break.
Yes, so then I guess part of my rejection of multiplayer games is just having had poor playmates who demanded my full and unbroken attendance to the gaming session
