There's just not many story mode games that compare to Larians for co-op. Besides take two/a way out, I haven't found any RPGs that are worthwhile (borderlands was the closest I guess but the gameplay is boring)
There is the Baldur Gate 1 and 2 Enhanced Edition that has multiplayer. I never really tried it, so I can't say how good it is.
Another one is Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. The multiplayer has standalone campaigns. Definitely need to get the fan patches for this game.
I appreciate the response. Unfortunately my partner wouldn't want to play such dated games. I on the other hand don't mind them.
Best out of these for couples? She doesn't play shooters nor most first-person titles. I don't like turn-based games.
I'd recommend the we were here series. They're two people puzzle games.
Second this. It's a puzzle game that is all about communication. One player is in the room that has to solve the puzzle, the other player is in a different room that has the solution to the puzzle.
This is a game that you don't play being able to look at each other screens.
Just a warning, I’m a wimp and got scared in one specific scene/puzzle. It’s a very minor horror theme, ended up having to have my husband sitting on the floor next to me facing the other way to complete it cos I got too scared. Loved the series though, amazing games.
I wouldn't say horror, but it does have a sinister motif.
