James writes - "Proper co-op games are few and far between these days. Not the sort that sees players grouping up to tackle hordes of zombies like in Call of Duty, or getting together to bring down drug lords in an open-world environment such as Ghost Recon Wildlands. I mean the purest form of co-operative gaming; where there’s an absolute reliance on your partner and anything but that will probably result in failure. The developers at Hazelight – most of whom worked on the development of brilliant indie hit Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons – saw the gap in the market and wanted to bring out an immersive, story-driven co-op game to fill it. Can A Way Out be the innovative experience to reinvigorate the co-op side of gaming, or will it drive the masses back to the lonely life of a single player?"
Cultured Vultures: While Hazelight might have found even more success with It Takes Two, we shouldn't forget how game-changing A Way Out was.
A co-op only game should never be a standard
What works for one game shouldn’t suddenly be applied for most other games
All they're saying is it set a standard for co-op games. Not games in general.
Though I'd say they already did that with their previous title Brothers: Tale of Two Sons.
I meant other co-op games. Those other games should always consider singleplayer and multiplayer in their design
I don't know
I think co-op only games like this are good because it stops developers forcing in co-op into established franchises where it doesn't belong
