I didn’t see these in the list:

Wyldermyth - indie fairly unique story building campaign with turn based tactical combat.

Wastelands 3 - post apocalyptic RPG with good story, choices, and characters. Great tactical turn based combat. Other than the other Larian games this is closest to filling the BG 3 shaped hole.

Halo Master Chief Collection; 1 - 3, Reach, and ODST are amazing co-op. We’ve played through all of them multiple times. 4 is… disappointing.

Pappabosley,

The dynamic story telling in Wyldermyth is fantastic, love interesting character arcs that can develop.

Oblivion popularized fucking DLC, holy fucking shit I hate DLC so fucking much I pirated any games that has DLC, I don’t mind expansion but DLC can crash and burn in a pile of dogshit

ILikeBoobies, (edited )

Assuming you mean micro transactions rather than dlc like we saw in Halo 2

JamesFire,

DLC is literally just DownLoadeable Content

So like… I don’t get the hate for a specific method of providing content. Like, there’s obviously a difference between Factorio’s Space Age, and what The Sims does, even though they are both DLC.

Senshi,

Technically true, but I think everybody knows exactly what kind of dlc is meant, and because they still make up the majority of dlc content and addon-sized dlcs are so rare, it’s fair to call them that.

Moneygrab empty dlcs ( shiny horse armor! ) are stupid, and history has shown that people are not fiscally responsible enough to not be lured into spending absurd amounts of money for very shallow or plain empty content. “Vote with your wallet” doesn’t really work in the face of more and more insidious marketing efforts.

prole,

Expansions are DLC.

Senshi,

*rogue Roguelike

Though rougelike certainly sounds like an interesting genre too 😉

Games I enjoyed playing with my then-gilfriend:

  • Castle Crashers. 2.5D side scrolling action
  • Skyrim Together, although this requires at least one of you to have a decent level of understanding to get things to work smoothly
  • ibb & obb, puzzle
  • Portal 2, puzzle
  • Shadow Puppeteer, puzzle
ComfortableRaspberry,

Chiming in to confirm: ibb & obb was a whole lot of fun

Don’t Starve Together

EvilBit, do games w Can anyone suggest some good co-op games for two people?

If you don’t mind horror games, the entire Dark Pictures Anthology and The Quarry are really fun shared stories with branching paths.

ABCDE,

Are they local or online co-op?

EvilBit,

Both! And the way they work is different based on the fact that locally you can both see the screen but online you have different views.

My wife who is a huge Minecraft fan has been playing stardew valley with me.

She also loves the portal 2 coop

Not played most of the games you mentioned so not sure this’ll be your thing, but I’ve gotten back in to Sky: Children of the Light recently and it’s been great.

It’s beautiful, f2p (ad free!!!) on a bunch of different platforms, and going in as a pair will give you a head start since it has a social aspect and is designed to occasionally get players to cooperate (though you can play alone just fine, I do most of the time and cooperate with and befriend other platers). It’s mostly chill and you can take it at your own pace and make what you want of the world - follow the spirit guides and play through “proper” or fly/run/swim around and discover things on your own. You can use skills like playing instruments and taking photos, decorate your own or shared spaces, customise your character, chat to people from all over, or just chill in your favourite spot.

Torchlight 2 and 3 are fun looting co-op experiences.

If you’re into souls-likes, try “Stranger of Paradise”

Its fantastic, nobody has heard of it for some reason. I played this last year with a friend and it was really fun (if you’re into that playstyle)

Darksiders Genesis was also very fun with my little cousin, more hack n slash, one player gets to be pure meelee and the other half meelee half twin stick ranged.

Sniper Elite (4?) is pretty good as a chill co op FPS mission progression game.

Otherwise, probably any survival craft will do, you already played a few. I enjoyed Valheim and Planet Crafter and wish Subnautica had Multiplayer.

Since you enjoyed BG3, I’d strongly recommend Divinity: Original Sin 1&2 if you have not played them already.

Other than that, a few random suggestions with sizeable coop campaigns:

  • Outriders
  • The Ascent
  • Remnant 1&2
  • Resident Evil 5&6
  • Saints Row 3&4
  • Trine 1-5
  • Valheim

I own DOS 2 from back when it came out, does DOS 1 still hold up? Would it be better if we just played 2 either way?

solarvector,

Both are great games, with 1 being a little rough around the edges but still very playable. The gameplay is different enough that it’s worth playing them both imo. Story might be better if you play 1 first, but I played through 2 first, then went back later to play 1 and was pleasantly surprised how good it was.

I probably vehemently disagree with some recommendations to play BG 1 and 2 btw, your mileage may vary. It requires very specific builds and knowledge of DnD, or lots of trial and error. You can easily build a well rounded group and find yourself unable to progress because of lacking one very specific thing. If that doesn’t sound to annoying, it might be worth a shot. If nothing else, rolling characters is fun.

Trail,

Well, OP could always play BG1 and BG2 which are still two of the greatest games ever.

Dark Souls 1 (remastered) & 3 along with Bloodborne are good options.

ImplyingImplications, do games w Can anyone suggest some good co-op games for two people?

The “We Were Here” series is a fun puzzle co-op game. The first one’s free if you want to try before you buy.

Assuming Steam?

  • Halo, obviously. Master Chief Collection is pretty cheap to pick up these days, don’t miss out on the Halo 3 ODST DLC.
  • Ready Or Not can be a challenge with just two people, but it is very rewarding to get a good score.
  • Zero Hour is very similar to Ready Or Not, but it has different features and I find it a bit easier.
  • Deep Rock Galactic
  • Risk of Rain 2
  • Elden Ring (Seamless Coop Mod is highly recommended)
  • Monster Hunter World (include Iceborn DLC)
  • Generation Zero
  • Project Zomboid (if you like this one you’ll probably sink hundreds of hours into it)
  • theHunter Call of the Wild (chill hunting shooter)
  • Farming Simulator 2019 (new ones may be better, haven’t researched)
  • Barotrauma
  • Factorio
  • Elite Dangerous
  • Green Hell
  • The Forest
  • Sons of the Forest
  • Morrowind has an OpenMW fork that supports multiplayer, if you get it set up this can be a fun game to play
