Nintendo received a patent for a "single-player gaming universe"

Now MMORPG, multiplayer online gaming universes, continue to evolve, capturing more and more players. The game industry continues to evolve, and of course, more and more new games and their classes appear. MMORPG, as a phenomenon, was discussed and discussed by all who feel like it - after all, games belonging to this class, for some, become something like real life. True, the developers of Nintendo believe that a single-player, Massively Single Player Online Game can become a good alternative to the multiplayer gaming universe.



Nintendo has even received a patent for the MSPOG idea, and it is likely that projects related to this class of games will soon appear. In the MSPOG, unlike the MMORPG, there will be no human-player interaction as we know it today. It is possible that the player will be able to contact other people within the limits of any quests, but such communication will be very limited. It is interesting that the company management has already stated that developers are more or less clearly aware of the model of such games. For example, in the game one player can search for materials to build a house, and build this house. Another player, acting individually, will be able to buy a ready-made house built by the “forerunner”. Well, the exchange of information between players can be done through a computer character that interacts with all the inhabitants of the MSPOG universe.

In general, the idea itself is not yet clear to everyone, so we will wait for the appearance of such games in order to understand what they are. It is worth noting that the initiators of the ideas of single-player gaming universes believe that MSPOG will exclude fraud on the part of the players, there will not be any “quick pumping”, since each of the participants in the game project will have “their own way”. The patent indicates the possibility of "franding" by players of each other, with the result that the "friends" will be able to see each other in the game world.



It is quite possible, they say in Nintendo, that such games will appear not only for consoles, but on social networks, where they may be very popular. MSPOG may be interesting for mobile phone owners. By the way, the idea of ​​MSPOG is not so new, despite all the assurances of Nintendo. For example, this concept was embodied in the project Wright's Spore, and partly in Demon's Souls.
