(the app is forcing me to put a link so I put Timesplitters 2 gameplay cuz this is mostly a text post)
Hi everyone! I’ve been feeling frustration about games lately, remembering experiences I had as a kid playing co-op story games with my friends, like Timesplitters and Destroy All Humans, etc.
Modern multiplayer games sometimes have some co-op elements, but many of them are party games like Human Fall Flat or Among Us, or big Battle Royales or Multiplayer shooters. The co-op ones seem to only be survival games like The Forest.
I’m always looking for good co-op experiences to play with my friends, but it’s hard to find what I am looking for. I recently played It Takes Two with my partner and that was so wonderful.
Does anyone know any games like what I am looking for? It seems these kinds of games are so few and far between, sadly.
You probably played it already, but if you didn’t, Portal 2 has a Co-op campaign and it’s really good.
Edit: I opened my steam library for more games and and saw that apparently an unofficial mod Portal reloaded had a co-op update if you already played the original. Anyway here’s some more games.
Battleblock theater: a co-op puzzle platformer. It has a bit of a party game vibe with it’s humour and ability to mess with your friends, but it has a story.
Don’t starve together: a 2d survival game with an interesting drawn style.
FEAR 3: a horror FPS.
Payday 2: a co-op FPS where you rob banks (and other places).
