Resident Evil 6 with a friend
I would always save the flashbangs for whoever was unfortunate enough to play it with me
I actually even enjoy it solo. It might be a shit Resident Evil, but it's a fun action game on its own. I finished it solo 3 times in my life (Amateur on first playthrough, Normal on second, and I recently deleted my save and played it again on Amateur while I was playing through the whole series), and I plan on S-ranking No Hope someday. The melee combat is pretty fun and it's so satisfying when you land a counter-attack. The quick-shots are also pretty cool and in general, I love over-the top action.
I did finish like 2 campaigns with a friend in split-screen (Ada and I don't remember the second one) and just like another commenter here, we were laughing at the co-op partner just being a random Agent who can't do anything on his own and just teleports wherever he needs to be (Ada uses her grappling pistol to get somewhere? Agent's already there). Our headcannon was that Ada has schizophrenia XD.
I also finished 5 with a friend, and while there were some frustrations (It was our first ever playthrough of the game and we were playing it on Veteran), it was ultimately fun, especially because we created a shit-load of inside jokes. And whenever there was a single basic enemy, we just pulled out our knives and stunlocked them to death. That said, I'm not playing that game again. I doubt I'd get either of my friends to play it again and I'm not playing it solo (Sheva's AI being the biggest reason).
This has been my go-to answer for awhile now, I'm very happy that someone understands. Like it's an absolutely terrible game but my god it's so much fun, when me and a friend were going through the game together about a year and a half ago it was my first time ever playing through it co-op and we learned that on Ada's story her "Partner" was just some random ass BSAA agent who can't do anything not even open doors. It led to "dOoR?!" becoming a running joke between us and us naming the agent "Cletus". Good times
My friend and I named him the very talented but shy Gunk! I’m glad someone else actually enjoyed the Ada co-op :).
Meanwhile my friend and I referred to him as "special" agent Ed. Was hilarious realizing that this ostensibly highly trained agent was incapable of doing something as simple as opening a door.
It’s not a terrible game LOL man the internet has y’all brainwashed. Once a narrative forms shit is automatically “horrible, terrible, awful” group thinkers ruined the internet man
I have never once before today read anything on the internet about resident evil 6. I also happen to own it. It is atrociously bad.
Not everything is something you can blame the internet zeitgeist on, dillweed.
Resident Evil 6 was fun. I had fun playing it.
Will never be able to forget about the great, ancient, medieval zombie temple dungeon of Washington DC.
What a trip.
The absolute best. One player is an actual main character, and the other player is the titular (between my buddy and I when we played) "Fight Guy". Just a random guy on the same side of the protagonist, helping them do their thing. Fight Guy was the best, 10/10
Loved 5 with a friend, but 6 felt terrible.
And waaaay too long.
Resident Evil 6 isn’t bad though. Only group thinkers and hate train riders think that. 🤷♂️
About every year or so, my husband and I reinstall RE 5/6 and play together. 5 is our favorite to play through and a joy to crack on the dialogue
CHRESSSS!!!
That's why Capcom surveyed people on what game to remake next when RE4 came out because 5/6 really start to go off the rails.
