English term or phrase: Player vs Environment (PVE)

Definition from Cyber Definitions:
PVE is an abbreviation used in online gaming with the meaning "Player Versus Environment". PVE games require players to fight computer-generated monsters or enemies, as opposed to fighting other human players.

Example sentence(s):

Selecting the right type of combat for you depends on whether you prefer a more aggressive PvP setting, where everyone can potentially attack you, or a more relaxed PvE experience that lets you cooperate with others against the evil AI. Plarium
Back in the day, prior to the invention of the internet – yes, such times did exist – most gaming was PvE (or story-mode) as standard. Of course, the stories weren’t as fleshed out and complex as they are today, usually along the line of “plumber must save kidnapped princess” or “shoot the invading aliens”, but they were great fun nonetheless. PCZone
Much of PvE is something that players can learn and calculate. Many people love the fact that things might not ever change but because of that they can constantly fine tune their skills because of the lack of variance. Game Skinny

Παίκτης εναντίον περιβάλλοντος (PvE)

Definition from own experience or research:
Παίκτης εναντίον περιβάλλοντος (PvE) - Το κύριο καθήκον του παίκτη σε αυτά τα ηλεκτρονικά παιχνίδια είναι να εξερευνήσει τον κόσμο του παιχνιδιού και να νικήσει τους αντιπάλους που δημιουργούνται από το πρόγραμμα και οι οποίοι δεν είναι άλλα άτομα που συμμετέχουν στο παινχίδι.

Example sentence(s):

Σε αντίθεση με το PvP είναι το PvE, το οποίο είναι αρκτικόλεξο για το "Παίκτης εναντίον Περιβάλλοντος" και είναι η διαδικασία του παιχνιδιού όπου παλεύεις ενάντια στην Τεχνητή Νοημοσύνη ή τα bots. - GOLUEGO
Για τον παίκτη που προτιμούσε το στυλ “Παίκτης εναντίον Περιβάλλοντος” αλλά ήθελε να επικοινωνεί μέσα στο παιχνίδι σαν να ήταν ο ίδιος ο χαρακτήρας που παίζει και όχι κάποιος που χειρίζεται το χαρακτήρα (roleplaying)... - Διπλωματική Εργασία
Στη συνέχεια, ο παίκτης θα πρέπει να επιλέξει ένα Realm (διακομιστή), τη γλώσσα και μία από τις παραλλαγές: PvE («Player versus Environment», που στα Ελληνικά σημαίνει «παίκτης εναντίον περιβάλλοντος») ή PvP («Player versus Player», που στα Ελληνικά σημαίνει «παίκτης εναντίον παίκτη»). - Πτυχιακή εργασία
