Hey guys, just wondering if I play the co-op first, will the single player be spoiled in any significant way? I'm not a super sensitive nancy about minor spoilers, but overt references to events in the single player would be frustrating.
Portal 2
Game » consists of 20 releases. Released Apr 19, 2011
Portal 2 is the sequel to the acclaimed first-person puzzle game, carrying forward its love of mind-bending problems and its reckless disregard for the space-time continuum.
Quick Question for Co-Op. Does it spoil the single player at all?
Yes is does, and in more than one way.
All the mechanics you learn in the co-op will get old much faster in the single player and for the ending there is a bit of continuity explained.
" @IceOrb: Yeah but in co-op, all GLaDOS says is how she loves testing and alludes to some events from the second game but these are more like teasers than anything else. The story centers on the two bots and nothing else "
Pretty sure she mentions killing Wheatley.

She mentions two undescript people and that she killed one of them, it's not really a spoiler since it's one line of dialogue
" @Manhattan_Project said:Tell that to my friend who was playing co-op with me. He lost his shit when that came up.

" @Yanngc33 said:Yeah I guess you should play single player first than. Note that I played co-op after single and I just remember the dialogue as being mainly focused around the two robots. If you fear getting exposed to hints of how Portal 2 may end and you're well aware of the premise, than yes play Portal 2 alone first." @Manhattan_Project said:Tell that to my friend who was playing co-op with me.
