It's just an idea that other people are just as entitled to have an opinion about as you. Not to mention, if it were something that existed, it still would not destroy the single player mode. Anyone who didn't like it wouldn't need to concern themselves with it. Everyone has different things they would like to see, and I don't feel entitled to call something someone else may like sh*t simply if I don't like it. That is all.

Actually I do not play co-op games. You are correct that turning it into another cheap co-op shooter would certainly ruin it. Amnesia is a serious horror game for serious horror fans, maybe even the best ever created next to System Shock 2. Perhaps I should have been a bit more clear in my post.

First: Amnesia cannot have co-op, because it was meant to be a single player game.
Second: When done right, it won't be Amnesia anymore.

Want a good horror game with co-op? Try RE-Outbreak. One can never carry the Amnesia atmosphere to any sort of co-op game.

Coincidentally, System Shock 2 had a co-op mode. :p

Yes, everyone has an opinion. But there are enough co-op survival games out there already. Can the people with a less-mainstream opinion have a few games as well, please?

How does making a separate co-op game somehow negate the existence of the single player game? Huh

no, but if it's not going to work well it can deduct from the time spent on making the game a great single player experience.

Not if it's made separately and after the fact.

I would love to see both options on Frictionals next game. Blush
Multiplayer & Singleplayer. I think it would sell much more Big Grin

Other ppl love multiplayer experiences, others single.
