are 2 players enough in coop games ?

hey, just asking before buying

Yes, you can beat it duo on medium campaign settings.
You really need only human captain and medic, and you're golden.

It's downright ideal. A third player isn't always desirable in tight spots like when delving into ruins or abandoned outposts due to narrow spaces, although further players stationed onboard the sub or as backup operators can, of course, be extremely helpful.

Been playing with a friend of mine, just the two of us and a sub I built staffed with bots. Works wonders! We play to each others strengths and can each order the bots around as needed. So yeah, definitely able to play it with just two people if you desire to.

2 players is ideal, but you can always hire ai staff and command them just in case you need extra hands.

just don't buy it... or be ready to play alone without friends.

What's wrong with that?

For the general question as a general answer: yes

For Barotrauma: I do not recommend

By the end of the day it is a matter of personal preference, and I welcome it the more people buy and enjoy Barotrauma. Yet I also see it like D&D. Starting a table with just one or two is not entirely impossible, but you miss out on potential.

Also 2 people are more than enough beat campaign that way.
You can hire bots to do all the roles

But I do recommend 1 person being medic - not because bots can't heal but for the alien genetic perk. The medic should be the person to loots dead bodies of aliens in order for chance of getting alien genetics, and bots can't loot bodies.

The 2nd Person maybe Mechanic - for the mining perks. That way you get more ore easier.

I would say that 2-3 somewhat experienced players is the ideal way to play this game. I'm currently in a campaign with 5 people (including me) and while it is fun, it is also really difficult to find days when we are all available.
