Was I the only one who noticed how games seem to be really focusing on multiplayer? Even games that have traditionally been single player?

I'm curious to hear how our communities feel about this.   Stardock is taking a big bet on Star Control: Origins.  It is a single player game (other than Fleet Battles of course).  The game is about you.  I personally have no interest in multiplayer RPG games these days.  

So what's the deal? What do you guys think?
