Co-op campaign progression?
Will we be able to progress the storyline with my friends together as we both are new players? I watched youtube that the progression are only tied to the host

Okay Microsoft Word, I have done a little bit of testing and research.

From what I just did. If the quest has a WiFi symbol over the quest it can be completed online. (It does not matter if you are the host or not.) Progression will be saved when you go back to your own game.

I could be wrong, but I believe a majority of the main story (after chapter 1) can be progressed together online. The only thing is you will have to accept and turn in the quests independently. (You can do this in a world where you are not the host.) You will also need to be by your friend when the quest is initiated. (Seeing how you can go anywhere in the world without your friends)

It is suggested that you have your friend with the least amount of the story completed so that you can progress together.

Not sure where Dead S.n.a.k.e got his info. Chapter 1 only took me 6 hours. That was with completing side quest and other side objectives. The 15-20 hour mark is based on if you actually watch all the cinematics and read all the dialogue. It would have probably taken me an hour or 2 if I didn't choose to do side objectives. It's not that bad.

Yes, progression is tied to the host (and you will be able to play with someone only like after 10-20 hours after starting the game, MP is locked until chapter 2 and chapter 1 is very long retelling of Alicization anime first season), so you or your friend will not progress (story-wise) in their own game while playing in other player's session.

So let me understand this. I can use the in-game party finder to find someone to do quest with. But as long as I am in their game I get no credit for said quests? I only ask, because I am pretty sure you can use the party finder for main story quests. Or I could just be seeing things?
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.
