Hi, did anyone tried to play BG3 in coop? How is this? Is this close to coop in Divinity: OS 2 or is it more solo focused game where coop isn’t so good?
Having a blast with coop. They’ve improved systems over divinity. For example, during combat, if you and a teammate have turns next to each other, you can both take your turns at the same time. This really helps combat flow faster. I’d much rather play it coop than solo.
I haven’t been this hooked on a game in a LONG time. It’s amazing.
I assume co-op is online and not on the couch? Think it’d be good if I can get a friend to co-op with in the same room?
Couch co op os available on PC. I checked with someone for GeForce
I believe couch co-op is comimg for console, although apparently the devs are having some trouble with it on xbox
That sounds nice, i will probably wait for my friend. Too tell you the truth i hoped that people here would say that it’s bad so i could start playing right now, but if it is even better then D:OS2 then i will wait :P
It depends on your partners and what you want your experience to be. Want to do stupid shit and be silly? Then coop is for you. Want to take the story seriously and get fully immersed? Maybe solo is better for you
It’s dos2 with better team interactions narratively. Like ur buddies can add points to ur persuasion rolls and stuff. Super nice.

Ask here, mate
I will ask there too, thanks :)
I never played Divinity.
But I played Coop with some friends over the internet and it was pretty easy. Only thing is good communication (verbal) with other people to sort of level set what ya’ll going to do because if you happen to play with someone who’s just dead set on being an agent of chaos… then you might not have a great time since they can at any point directly affect the world. You may want to do a pure hero/villain run but the other people might have other ideas. Plan ahead, don’t rush, and communicate.
The biggest thing, is scheduling with the other people. My friends it might be once a week for maybe 2 hours… which means we’re looking at least 2 years on a coop, lol.

My partner and I played through Divinity Original Sin 2 many times with co-op, and now we are playing through BG3 and we are having the time of our lives. It’s really really good. It’s like co-op in DoS2 but I’d say it’s even better.
Just make sure you recruit someone and they recruit someone to your party (just like in DoS2) so you both get to control another character. But it’s really easy to switch out party members if they are in your camp.

You can also go to session and switch NPC control to your other person if you accidentally had one person recruit two people.

I didn’t know that! Thanks I’ll have to keep that in mind.
