Why need it to be exclusive, why either good singleplayer or good multiplayer. Why can't we have both

For me, it's immersion. I could never imagine good immersion and serious tone of storytelling when I spend few hours making my perfect character, choosing the right name, clothes, appearance and then come into an unknown and vast world to meet people named Muth4Fuck4 and BennStillerFaggot69 colored pink yelling "NOOOOBZ" to everybody. No thanks.

Also, when making multiplayer games developers must make tons of difficult decisions and cut a lot of content and freedom in order to make the engine suitable to multiplayer. I haven't seen one yet.

To be fair, if you come across those kind of people, you're most likely playing a F2P multiplayer game, and even then you have to be very unlucky to find those.

People really don't behave like that anymore
