Why are single player games becoming irrelevant today?
Why are single player games becoming irrelevant today?
Because multiplayer games make people market the game for you.
Younger kids pretty much only like multiplayer stuff and play what their friends play with their friends. The people still buying and playing single player games are in their late 20's or older.

Games were originally almost exclusively multiplayer. We are returning to that time thanks to internet technology.
Because it's like a longer movie. You play it once and it's over.
A multiplayer game is good for hundreds, sometimes thousands, of hours.

A Sony movie game maybe, but there's tons of singleplayer games that can have up to hundreds or even thousands of hours worth of content and replayability.

Single player games are some of the best-selling and highly-praised games of the past few years. Whether they're good games or if you like them doesn't change that. BotW, nuGoW, Mario Odyssey, RDR2, Spider-Man, even on the full weeb side of things with Nier Automata & Persona 5. On top of that, some of the best-selling games of this year so far have been single player (KH3, RE2make, Sekiro, DMC5). I think Days Gone has done pretty well as well, and we have a good chunk of single player games lined up over the next 9 months on PS4/Switch.
Last of Us 2 is going to get 90% of GOTY awards for the year it releases and probably break 8 Million sales lifetime. It probably won't be a good game, but I wouldn't call that irrelevant.

I'd rather have a tight single player game with no filler
