Advantages of multi-user games

Multi-user games provide a unique experience to players, which provide many benefits for use. These include:
  • Sometimes, the multi-user feature is awarded to users as an extra thing to do after the completion of a game.
  • People can socialise while playing video games, as the multi-user feature allows for co-operative play, so this essentially means that users will communicate with others. This ultimately means that users do not develop social problems, and become “outcasts”.
  • Global competitions are held with some multi-user games, for which winners can receive awards and prizes.
  • Multi-user games can make a fun pass time, as users can relax and play games with anyone around the world, or with friends/family.
  • Some people need better challenges than normal AI in some games, so by having the opportunity to play the game online, they could hope to find more people of similar skill and play with these people to increase the challenge they receive from playing. 
  • The game is made more realistic, as it is being played with real people, so this is distinguishably better than playing with an artificial intelligence because it is an actual person playing the game.
