Baring in mind how long ago this was, AI can only have improved since then, and even if not it can hardly have worsened. I know the quality of AI varies from poor to terrible, but as I mentioned in my original post, Killzone 3 had a series of small maps in which you could battle bots, and I remember it being incredibly enjoyable. We're in danger of going round in circles with this point now, but I can't agree with you entirely on the bot thing.
I like the idea of GRW, but I play exclusively first-person games as they're all I'm interested in. AI is actually really expensive, which is another reason why bots are basically no better than they were 10-20 years ago, so you're not going to really get any sort of interesting AI from any of these types of games, you'd need to play online for something very tactical/serious. If you're wanting a game where you can set up custom missions with AI then eh. If you're talking strictly PvE Ghost Recon Wildlands has a big open world and tactical elements, it's not super deep but it's not bad. Yes the AI in most of these cases is laughable, and such a mode would never replicate or offer the same kind of buzz as playing against other humans, but it would be something at least. It would be wonderful for people like me, to have options beyond the campaign, where I can choose from a series of maps, weather conditions, objectives, time of day, number of bots, skill levels etc etc etc. I'm also pretty sure Killzone 3 offered precisely the kind of offline bot battles I'm talking about. I'm sure it's been done, although I can't think of any examples right now other than a few side levels offered with one of the Metro Redux games. To that end I wonder why developers of, for example, first-person shooters, don't include options beyond the campaign that mimic these MP battles, but with bots instead of other humans. In my case it's a combination of being too crap to compete (I would die every 3 seconds against human opponents), not being able to afford a regular PS+ account, and simply preferring the stress-free aspects of playing offline.
Thing is, and for many varying reasons, many gamers don't/can't play online. I can pretty much guess what the majority of replies will be to this, and most of them probably from the hardcore online MP community, but I've been watching a lot of Squad and Post Scriptum gameplay lately and must admit to feeling more than a little envious - not of PC players per se - but of online milsims in general.
