Multiplayer Games That Aren’t Online
Couch co-op/multiplayer has always been a welcome addition to any multiplayer game. However, that isn’t an excuse to suddenly not include the ability to play online. One of the most recent offenders of this was Overcooked, a delightfully fun party game that lacked any online mechanics whatsoever. Given that many people don’t always have friends close enough to come over and play due to either work or school, or just geography, this makes using the multiplayer feature quite challenging.
Couple that with having to own multiple controllers (of which cost around $60 a pop) and playing with your friends is suddenly way more costly. We aren’t asking for the omittance of offline play, but simply give users the option to game with others across the world so they can fully enjoy the content. This would also help shut-ins like myself who dare not open the curtains to see the dreaded sun, let alone invite people over.
