However, they may be among the first developers to have consciously decided to do something about it. Joana Dimas and Sérgio Gil probably weren’t the first fans of the genre to notice this gap in the market. It almost feels like leaving money on the table. On paper, this seems like an obvious framework for team-based play, and yet relatively few titles have capitalized on this opportunity. On a conceptual level, these games are well-suited for cooperative play, centering around controlling parties of combatants that must work together toward annihilating an opposing force.
Modern multiplayer modes often emphasize competition over cooperation, a development that may have been accelerated by the dominance of shooters and other types of games that naturally lend themselves toward competitive action.Ĭuriously, squad-based tactical roleplaying games have rarely featured co-op capabilities. They’re not unheard of these days, but they’re certainly less common than they used to be and aren’t something that’s generally expected. If you’ve been around long enough, you may remember when co-op modes were commonplace in videogames. While Epic puts us in touch with our subjects, they have no input or approval in the final story.
