I try to get into games, but sometimes it’s hard—just needed to vent

In single-player games, for example, it’s always the same story: there comes a point where you simply don’t know what to do anymore and the game doesn’t give you any more hints. There’s nothing on the screen, nothing marked on the map, and you just have no idea what you’re supposed to do next, so you end up quitting. In that case, you usually never come back to that game.

In multiplayer, it’s a different story. You’ve already completed all the objectives, all the missions, you’ve got the best items and there are no more upgrades in‑game. You’re already at max level. So then what? What do you do?

In single-player, you can look up videos on YouTube to figure out how to get past that part. Which strategy to use, etc. But it doesn’t feel like the same achievement as if you had cleared that hard level on your own.

In multiplayer, you can choose to keep leveling up purely to reach, stay in, or hold on to the top 3. But honestly, what’s the fun in that?

To me, that’s a big problem for real gamers. Especially for those who don’t have much time or patience anymore, like me.

Developers, please give more hints, add more objectives, make your games playable for longer.
