- PvP games constantly evolving can overwhelm players who can’t keep up.
- The often non-existent stories in PvP games are unappealing compared to single-player narratives.
- PvP games’ unpredictability and endless cycles can be frustrating, unlike single-player games, which offer a complete experience.
Since gaming has been taken seriously, many releases have centred on multiplayer experiences. Though these settings can be super fun for some, they can be infinitely annoying for others. This article will explain the main reasons I and many others don’t like PvP games.
A Bit Of Backstory
My gaming journey began with old Nintendo games on my browser. The first modern games I played were CS: GO and Fortnite, with Fortnite being my main focus around 2020, though I never excelled at it.
After struggling with Fortnite, I switched to Valorant. Initially refreshing, the team dependency and my poor aim (being left-handed without a left-handed mouse) led to burnout after 8 months. I then took a long break from gaming.
Now, I enjoy single-player games, particularly Metroidvanias and Souls-likes, and have been much happier ever since.
PvP Isn’t For Everyone
The following sections will list some of my personal gripes with PvP games and why I much prefer single-player experiences.
Keeping Up
PvP games constantly evolve with new content and techniques. While this keeps dedicated players engaged, it can overwhelm those who lack time or interest in keeping up.

This would be fine if it was just another way to make your gameplay more interesting, but not keeping up makes the game much worse for the player because they get outplayed by those who do.
This isn’t an issue in single-player games. You could buy a game and play it all the way through without seeing a single ounce of content on it. You are free to play the game however you like, and you might even be rewarded for playing this way.
