Don't like to play with randoms - simple as that. Too many times in SWTOR been doing operations or heroics - people disappearing, stop playing, been doing weird stuff etc. Now mostly doing solo stories or SOMETIMES stuff with my guild mates.
In other MP games got similar experiences.
Also, like to play MY story - MY story for my own. Hate to be dependant on other players.

co-op , i can enjoy that . in RL i teach and i perform so being the center of attention and being Mr Right all the time, it's nice to just mingle and be a scrubb . The people are rarely the problem , the mechanics can be from mildly annoying to game breaking. And forget PvPs 0_o ! But at the end of the day, i still love SP games the most .

Even if I do like to play MP time to time, I far more interested in single-player games. And for many reasons.
As many of you said, I like to tackle games at my own pace. For me videogames are a form of escapism and relaxation. And, even though playing with people can be a great source of amusement, it does not allow me to "enter" this state of reverie.
Finally, even though I consider myself more of an ambivert, I struggle, and suck, at social interactions so MP games can be somehow stressful to me, sometimes.
Oh, and let's not forget about all the toxic people out there.

Multiplayer games don't appeal to me at all. Maybe if it was a sports game or something I might play with a friend, but with RPGs and story-driven games I have no desire to have anyone else involved, thank you very much.

Two words:
SATELLITE INTERNET
Everything I see on the screen is 1-2 seconds old. Makes it tough to play any MMO, and impossible to be a host.
A game like Anthem where you can't search for a hosted game that you can potentially lag-suck your way through will be a no-go. I got good enough at ME3 to play well on Bronze, okay on Silver, and limp my way on Gold, but I could never host.

I play just about everything that I can on my own. SWTOR (until I stopped), Borderlands 1 & 2, The Division... I even play team-based PvP games solo, choosing to play Fornite Battle Royale squads/duo/solo, but always with just me on the squad - or in the Save The World campaign, I just do it solo. I like that I have the choice. It's a shame Anthem doesn't really give me the choice. The only MP I play with others is ME3mp (and MEAmp, to a lesser extent). It seems to be the one outlier in things I've tried.

So a direct Anthem tie in here ... in the demo I had such bad luck getting to ever launch the story missions in PRIVATE mode, before I learned the idiotic workaround, that I played the first mission in PUBLIC. It was such a crap experience. Everybody just rushed like mad going form one little waypoint to the next as fast as they could. When I figured out the workaround, ie. dashboard the second the loading screen would hang then restart and resume expedition, I was able to play the last two missions in PRIVATE mode. It was so much better of an experience it felt like a different game almost. So I disagree with the tagline PR BS, "Stonger Together" ... it's more like "More Shit Together". I really wish this game gave me the choice to play single player offline if I so choose. Just make my characters that play offline unable to go into online mode to prevent save file tampering and give me the choice.
EDIT: Being able to play offline would also allow me to experience the game without having to deal with Bioware's inept implementation of online gaming , the shoddy connections, the random crashes and disconnects, getting booted out of Freeplay because someone leaves, allowing people to troll their team mates with the objectives in Strongholds ... the whole damn game would be so much better.

I actually prefer offline single player games, refuse to play online pvp only type games, and rather enjoy pve and pve only type games depending on the genre.
If people are that dead set against something, forget it and move on.
If they appear to like a game, say Anthem, but are thinking its more inline with say a COD, Fortnight, or Battlefield type mp or just haven't played a mp game and are hesitant about giving it a try I'd say off of 4 years playing Destiny's pve that:
90 to 95% of the people you will play with are helpful and probably also playing solo and doing their own thing. There will be the occasional Troll.
You will be able to play solo and at your own pace in the open world exploration though expect to die alot while leveling and that there will be 3 other players in your instance and while they will probably be helpful in most circumstances,(World Events, Random bosses) they may be doing their own thing and not participate. It will get easier the more you play.
Strongholds(kinda reminds me of Destiny strikes), yes, in general you may have to run at a faster pace than you want to, especially as everyone levels up and learns the mechanics, though, while it may feel a bit uncoordinated, I haven't seen anything so far that makes me feel you'll have to run a mike, though it would be a good idea to have one for the higher difficulties if you want to give them a try.

"What prevents you from trying multiplayer games?" It should not be assumed that solo players have never tried them.
There are two aspects that influence my solo play: the gameplay available in MP games, and the people.
I played World of Warcraft for about 10 years, Ragnarok Online for a couple of years prior to that, and Guild Wars at some point as a distraction from WoW. Korean MMOs like RO tend to be grind-fests, so that doesn't much figure into my thought process here, but I list it as it's one of the main MMOs I've played to illustrate that I've done the genre.
The first aspect involves the style of gameplay available to MP games. The majority of online-based games are never-ending. You are never done, never finished; you never "win." If you beat the final raid boss, they add a new tier in a patch that you have to work toward. If you complete all of the achievements, they add more. If you collect all of the pets, or mounts, or whatever, more are added. At this point, I'm burned out on the genre.
Story-based games, like WoW or GW, never have an ending. In addition, the fact that your character is just one of millions around you makes the story aspects less significant. I played in the SWTOR beta; the experience was dampened when, after being told that I was the first padawan that Master So-and-so had taken in many years, seeing someone else run past knowing that they had just been told the exact same thing. For most of WoW's existence, the player had always been one of the "heroes" or "adventurers" that simply helped the major lore NPCs to do their thing. In a recent expansion, they moved away from this by making your character the commander of the entire military force of the expansion... except I just joined a dungeon group with four other commanders! In another where leadership was class-based, you're told that your character is essentially the leader of your class, and you can even get a unique title, but are still surrounded by all of the other high priests, or whatever. That aspect of an MMO makes those story elements feel less special and significant. Because of this, MMOs are also limited in what they can do and show for story progression and choice-making.
Single player games are that as well, but those players exist in their own universe that has nothing to do with my own game. Someone can choose a faction leader as part of the story and it has nothing whatsoever to do with my game's universe.
I also heavily prefer story-based games for those that have a heavy time investment. I have no interest in loading up a game like Overwatch and just playing a match. That is boring to me.
The second aspect involves interacting with other people. I was a raid leader in WoW, so I'm not completely averse to that type of group-based interaction and environment. However, even in that game, grouping was always a means to an end; I did not prefer to experience content that way. In fact, I enjoyed the raids more when (at a much higher level) I could go back and see the full story content as it was meant to be experienced, not the way that the majority of raids actually do things: with a focus on speed and efficiency, and of course getting the job done. I never grouped with people while out questing in the world, even those I was friends with. I like to play at my own pace, and do things in a certain order, which might not be amenable to another person. Grouping with other people requires consideration of their wants and desires (or questing needs/requirements), and I didn't want to sacrifice my own enjoyment by having to be accommodating in that regard. If I want or need to go afk for whatever reason, I can just do that; if I want to tab out of the game and browse forums, I can just do that, without having to worry about another person (or people).
If the above makes me seem antisocial, then so be it.
And of course there is the downright toxic, abusive, asshole, inconsiderate, or just plain annoying behavior that other people get up to that I don't want to deal with. I'm not going to go into all of the abusive behavior, as that issue has been done to death over the years, but "annoying" behavior is also an issue. A story moment being negatively impacted because some impatient jerk cannot stand still for 30 seconds, jumping all around the NPCs; shouting out inappropriate or offensive things; blocking mailboxes; killing quest NPCs; and so on and so forth.
I've dealt with that shit for many years and want nothing more to do with it or any of the people that do those things.
The above goes for co-op as well. I just don't care to group with other people. Games structured where co-op is a requirement to see all of the content, like Anthem, will not get my dollars.

The only things that you need to have other people for are the free-play (which will be so large and largely lacking in narrative that it shouldn't really be a problem) and Strongholds. I've seen this argument before and it's tiresome. "You can do all the things except..." I don't want "except." I want to do ALL the things in solo. Games like Anthem don't allow that, so they don't get my dollars. I want to be able to access all of the content I pay for solo.

One point I do not think it was a honest question.
My answer is similar to most. I’m an introvert. I interview people at my job 6-8 hours a day. I don’t want to deal with people when I go home. When I played wow I mostly played alts so my friends couldn’t ask me to join. Because then it felt like a obligation and it was an uncomfortable amount of social pressure I put on myself from it. If I’m playing mp games like memp I almost universally pug and then in short bursts and I try to get my skill up so I can solo.
Edit to add about the only personal interaction I liked online was the handful of people who would see my character Ahglock who would run by and yell “That’s OG Lok man.” Outside of that it was just hassle and pressure.

People... But seriously I'm extremely introverted and there are only two people in this world who's company I can enjoy for long periods of time. I don't like the pressure that comes from playing with others and even if someone doesn't care if I mess up horribly, I'll still feel slightly ashamed. When I play I usually just want to relax instead of always being on my A game. I'll also feel obligated to help if someone asks and most of the time I just want to explore on my own, that's one of the reasons I'll end up hiding my online status in an mmo or on steam. Also whenever I was playing with randoms, every time they found out I was a chick they would try and flirt with me....it doesn't make me angry, I might even be flattered but I'm not single, I'm not looking for a relationship and I just want to play. I will turn you down and then once again I'll have something else to feel bad about. I do play ESO but I treat it like a single player game and I'll try to do the group dungeons on my own. The one time I was feeling social and joined a guild I regretted it because of the drama. I'm even irritated that I have to go into pvp to hunt down skyshards and I can't even fish there without someone attacking me. I've recently been starting to play dead whenever I see another player in pvp, funnily it seems to put people in a good enough mood to leave me alone most of the time.

The question should be why Bioware try to pretend that Anthem could be enjoyed as a single player game just as much as an actual single player game?
Some people just like single player, period. If EA wants to stop people from complaining, it should just market to the right crowd.

As we are seeing played out before our very eyes, that is easier said that done. Your old market thinks you're cheating on them, and your new market doesn't know who the hell you are.

I think the dev that asked the question … she got a large response on twitter … really was looking for answers. She got a lot of recurring themes … probably those in this thread mimic those themes … so it helped her understand.
Whether or not her question was just hers or if it was something she was doing for BioWare … can't say, would not surprise me if she was asking for BioWare … since she asked under her BioWare personna.
So I think it's helpful for BioWare to know that while there is some overlap in player base, that there is a significant group of folks that play BioWare games that really want the SP experience that Anthem can't give. I think her question also was asked to see if there was something that Anthem could do better, to bring those folks in. Mostly, other than folks who were fans of ME3MP and MEAMP … maybe DAIMP … the answer is no. Anthem just doesn't give the story and SP experience folks are looking for.
So while I might enjoy Anthem, it's just a bridge until the next DA … which for me is a bridge to the next ME. But until then, I'll play Anthem, MEAMP, maybe do another run in DAO/DA2 to match up with my last run in DAI … which has no corresponding DAO and DA2 runs to match in the Tapestry.

If EA wants to stop people from complaining, it should just market to the right crowd. They could let people play strongholds and freeplay in private mode. Seems like a simple solution to me, but for some reason they really don't want to cater to the solo player crowd.

I get the impression that they not only do not want to cater to the solo player audience, they're actively trying to discourage solo play. It's one thing to not put in any effort for a certain type of player, but taking active steps to make the game harder/less enjoyable/impossible to play their preferred way is quite another. It gives me a "play our way or sod off" vibe.

Sure, the "always online" thing is a bugger, but for most of the other stuff if you want the "single player" experience you can have it. All the story missions, NPC arcs, etc can be done in a private or friends-only lobby. The only things that you need to have other people for are the free-play (which will be so large and largely lacking in narrative that it shouldn't really be a problem) and Strongholds. I think you had said something earlier about other people on your free-play server causing lag and leaving the lobby, kicking people out, but I was under the impression that there wasn't a "lobby leader" (unless you specifically join someone's instance) and that servers were dedicated, not peer-to-peer. However that could all be wrong or I don't quite understand what that so means, so take that as you will. Maybe you were taking about story missions or Strongholds, in which case I'm not actually sure what happens if someone leaves part way through. Never had an issue in my 40+ hours over both weekends, but that doesn't mean they didn't happen to others of course. Conections are via server there is no p2p happpening. That is the whole reason behind the "our world" thing.
Yeah Anthem showed to me it is perfectly possible to complete quests alone and strongholds seems like fun with a good group of random players, so i am not worried about the online aspect of the game.
On easy / normal it probably is, but hard (where the good loot is) probably is very hard for solo...
I'm definitely trying normal solo first, but if I get annoyed by it, I'm more likely to evolve towards hard multi than easy solo. Depends how fun either option will turn out to be. Multi will be with rando's though, at least I don't have the feeling of dissapointing someone there by doing tarsis stuff. Whatever you say about anthem, I think bioware did a pretty good job with matchmaking with rando's easily possible. So Kudos to that. Also, it seems that you only really need to start communicating on grandmaster, so the main story will probably turn out to be perfectly playable without headset etc. That is a VERY good thing.

Fully aware of the hate this comment will get but fully in support of it anyway.... Online games are for unintelligent gamers. Your comment is underrated. Although I would like to nuance it towards more:
The average online game is designed in such a way that it can mostly be played by unintelligent players.
But, this is a necessity. I watched grandmaster vids, and you need to apply some goddamn tactics there, man. Otherwise you're screwed. I like that they did that. Also, it hurts to watch some people play, watching grandmaster vids reminded me why I hate doing that. Half of the time i'm just facepalming and saying: "NO! FIRST THE PRIMER, THEN THE DETONATOR!!!" or "STOP USING FROST GRENADE ON SHIELDS!!".

I heard frost has bonus vs shields. So I'd use it too. YES BUT FROST GRENADE DOES ZERO DAMAGE. ZERO TIMES 125% IS STILL ZERO. AND FROST DOESN'T PRIME SHIELDS.
WHY DID I CAP EVERYTHING?!
HELP I CAN'T STOP!
Haha. Now it makes sense. Ranger has really not great arsenal for priming.

In any case, the correct order is seeking missile to knock shielded dude out of the air, shoot until shield is gone OR prime with your glowstick and fire seekign missile again, frost grenade when unshielded.
