Yerli: Single-Player Games Must Be ?Online Single-Player? | Rock ...

By Jim Rossignol on March 1st, 2013 at 12:30 pm.


CryTek?s Cervat Yerli is a man with a lot to say, and he is now demanding that single-player games evolve into their new online context. Speaking to IGN, he said:

?I think the notion of a single-player experience has to go away. However, I?m not saying that there will be no single-player experiences? It could be it?s called Connected Single-Player or Online Single-Player instead.?

This assertion is perhaps less worrying when you look at the games that made this work ? Demon?s Souls or Journey ? but it?s nevertheless a big statement from one of the industry?s most ambitious studio heads. Personally, I think whenever people proclaim anything dead, or evolved-beyond, or outdated, or similar, they are pretty much consistently proven to be wrong. Evolution can mean diversification. If the past decade taught us anything, it?s that there?s no one clear future of games. Single-player will include online, but not be defined by it.
