LadyMarth01Question for the fediverse: what (in your opinion) is the best cooperative video game of all time?
I put forth 2009's Left 4 Dead 2, a game that refined the previous year's formula to make one of the best zombie games of all time. Additional special infected eliminated some more degenerate player behaviors, more variety in the maps improved replayability, and additional weapons gave the game just that additional bit more variety to it all.
Of course, I do prefer the overall atmosphere of the Left 4 Dead 1 maps, and some additions to Left 4 Dead 2 seem more variety-for-the-sake-of-variety than actually introducing interesting gameplay, but it's without a doubt the better option to play.
Coming up on 17 (!) years later, Left 4 Dead 2 feels antiquated in some ways: no customization, leveling up, perks, etc. I think the game is better for it: you can just jump in and go at it, getting straight to the fun.
(This was definitely prompted by getting to play Left 4 Dead 2 at a LAN party recently, and falling back in love with the game. 😆)
