    From the page on Giant Bomb it appears this game has online coop. Has anyone tried it? This is the kind of game I'd like to play with a friend online.

    That is incorrect, Pillars is single player only.

    Yeah this game is as single player as it gets, if it is flagged as having co op in the wiki it is a mistake.

    That's too bad. It'd have been cool if there was co-op like in Icewind Dale. Watching Dave and Ian play through together would have been cool.

    Speaking personally, none of the Inifinity Engine games have been great co-op experiences. You need to be able to take the time to read conversations and narratives. You want the ability to pause the game to give out orders without annoying a second player, or being annoyed by their pausing. I don't see how this would be anything like a decent multiplayer experience.

    @anund just wanted to say that my brother and I co-oped Baldur's Gate II back in the day and loved every minute of it. We did have the benefit of being in the same room though, so that helped us coordinate. Would love to have it as an option in this game, as Pillars truly seems to be the spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate, much more so than Divinity: Original Sin.
