Why so much opssesion on coop

[MadZec]

BIGGEST mistake to make it coop mandatory not one game where you needed AI coop to play campaing did not played well... why they just did not left game freaking SINGLE PLAYER....
I am glad I found Tasier studios here and made it Wishlisted I loved Little Nightmires 1 & 2 I can not say I thrilled at all for Little Nightmares 3 for Reanimal though CAN NOT WAIT
but please MAKE IT MORE ONE PLAYER FRIENDLY it is most scary when you are alone...

Co-op is not mandatory. The game is fully playable in single player as well.

I've never seen a co-op game where the singleplayer experience wasn't gimped in one way or another. at the end of the day you have to prioritize one over the other.

Untitled goose game?

Funny example, but i can imagine the Little Nightmares formula working in singleplayer or coop perfectly without making one of the two feel like a lite version.

Oh and Little Big Planet (same shared 2d camera too)

In little nightmares 2 Six be our companion most time. And I think - this add more dramatic, than first chapter. We defend, we run, we holding our hands - together. Six be controled AI, but no one time this be annoing.

Because there would be people complaining and nagging about co-op endlessly. But its good to hear this game is fully playable solo just how it should be.

I have no doubt they can make a perfectly functional co-op adventure in the Little Nightmares setting, but as soon as another player is involved, the horror element goes out the window. heck, even just having an NPC companion at all times would deflate the tension significantly.

Horror coop games is like stealth or hunting or sniping games for coop I tried playing Sniper Elite 5 with friend we had perfect set voice com and set but still he constantly would not wait and rush like in shooters and would not wait while I am type to wait for snipe for long.
Point is we can play together but kills essence of the point of the game especially the sniping. We played great on Farming Sim 25 but point is that is much harder to get players for specific genre games to immerse especially in genre like horror where you will have players screaming or doing stupid stuff and ruining game for others. It is good that game would be single player playable.

I see what you mean but it doesn't always have to be the case.
Lethal Company, Zort and REPO are examples of games that are hilarious with friends, but can still be terrifying.

Though in those games the player often gets isolated, which is mainly when the horror kicks in.
I'm curious to see which tricks they'll pull in Little Nightmares and Reanimal to bypass the safety and comfort of being together.

When done right, ripping that feeling of safety away from the player in the right moment can be just as scary or even scarier than a singleplayer horror moment.
