I feel like this Quick look was a kinda on the dry side. This is a big crazy game with a ton of weird personality and I don't think any of that came through. It was just kind of some clinical bullet points from Rorie.
I hope in the near future Vinny could run a 4 player co op game with some of the Giantbeast people and just kinda have fun. Doesn't have to be game master mode. But just something a little more... fun.
I kind of felt the same way. The game is crazy fun and is just absurd in an amazing way in co-op. The fact that the game hates "perfect" saves (which is a good thing in my opinion) makes it all the better, with different people having different objectives, goals, gameplay styles, but all having to work together in the end.
It's fucking magnificent in a way that you'll just never get if you insist on playing it "perfectly" solo in a super dry run. Get in there and get SLOPPY, boys! Accept whatever mistakes you make and move on! It's so much more fun and less stressful.
Also inventory management is like 10x easier with a full co-op group, since everyone gets 1 bag instead of one player getting all 4.
You also really feel a lot more specialized. If you're THE guy with pet pal, people will find animals and bring you over, if you're THE guy with teleportation, you're gonna be used for all kinds of wacky stuff. If you're the thief, be prepared to be the center of ridiculous heists for free skill books or weapons. All of this is fine single player, but is just delightful with friends.
Not watching at it all, there are definitely more suitable people to inform me about this game on the internet.
