I am looking to make some last minute purchases to play with one or more friends, and I have poked around Steam’s Co-Op page. I’m curious what new co-op games everyone on Lemmy is playing.

I just picked up Raft and Deep Rock Galactic the other day, but you can never have too many new (never played) games!

    GTFO with some caveats.

    1. You need a good group that can work together, coordinate, plan and work through challenging rooms.
    2. You like stealth mixed with action. You’re gonna spend most of the time sneaking up on the sleepers with bursts of action if they wake up or when you have to unlock an alarmed door.
    3. You’re gonna get your butt kicked. This is a difficult game that can end a run in under minute if you get too sloppy or cocky. But that’s half the fun.
    4. You can set aside a good chunk of time for each game. An easy map will take an hour. There aren’t that many easy maps. We’ve gone 3 hours and failed a run multiple times. We also use the time to catch up with each other. We’ve spent 5 to 10 minutes in front of a door chit-chatting before clearing a room.

    It’s bloody good fun, but you need a good group for it.

      GTFO is fucking incredible but borderline as hard as a DnD group to get the same people to regularly show up for.
