Other co-op games that aren't entirely focused on combat ?
I'm not a fan of shooting games or FPS to be honest, but I just love DRG because fights aren't the primary focus of the game.
Mission objectives are more about exploration, mining, or other things like building pipes or refueling a drilldozer :)

Do you guys know other co-op games that aren't focused on fighting ?

Thanks.

You're right !

I was mostly thinking about games with "missions" like DRG. I'm not really into survival games.

Kind of a niche game but pretty fun with friends

Interesting, seems very original.
I'll take a look at gameplay videos.

I'm not into these kinds of games, but you can mention some if they are really good, even if it isn't for me it could appeal to other people reading.

Factorio is a great game with exploration and lots of building, and has optional combat available.

Raft is a nice and chill survival game with focus on collecting flotsam instead of fighting enemies, aside from a single pesky shark from time to time, and exploring Islands and derelict buildings for upgrades.

PlateUp is also very nice if cooking games is your thing, though you might get mad at your friends when stuff gets hectic.

Lethal Company is a ton of fun, even if it does have enemies you either need to fight or avoid. You can also just work terminal duty if you prefer, and then watch your friends sometimes die.

Yeah Barotrauma is great, it does have a lot of combat but because it's 2D it's not really as intense as a first person shooter.

+1 for Astroneer. It is all about exploration, resource gathering, building, exploring, and some puzzle solving.

Without commenting the thing that you don't enjoy much about combat in general, this statement is kinda true and at the same time it isn't. I kinda get the feeling that you've never tried haz 4 or 5, because on those higher difficulty levels the combat definitely becomes a major focus, if not even the primary one. But that's the beauty of DRG, you can go as easy or hard mode depending on your preferences.

I generally play Haz 3 or 4, and DD/EDD.
But you're right, I'm not a fan of the constant enemy spawning in Haz 4 and 5, I enjoy it more when it's more relaxed and when I focus about the other aspects of the game.

I don't hate fights, but I don't think I'd like a game like Vermintide for instance, where it seems you're always fighting fighting and fighting.

Well, literally any survival-crafter-builder. Conan Exiles, Ark, Rust, Nightingale, Smalllands, Grounded, any of the 8,000 games in that vein.

Look into hosting games with your own settings.

One game many don't realise is highly configurable is V Rising, you can set almost any aspect of it your liking at world creation.
