Do you play video games with your spouse? What do you play together? Do you have coop sessions? I want to hear your stories.
My husband (40M) is a PC gamer. I (40F) have recently started playing coop games with him. I’ve tried playing in the past, but I never get very far due to the intensity in most of them. Recently, we started playing co-op games together so he can help me out while we play, and I can actually enjoy the game. I was just curious what other couples play and if you have any recommendations for us.
PC games we’ve played in co-op: Splinter Cell, Breakpoint, Green Hell, Astroneer, Grounded, and we just started Icarus. *The only one we truly finished together is SplinterCell and most of Breakpoint.
YES!!! My husband (M37) and I (F40) met BECAUSE of games. We have played so many games together, most popular is World of Warcraft (and a couple of other MMOs), Heroes of the Storm, and we’ve played Snowrunner together too. We are always trying new games!
There are a ton of games that are fun for co-op. We have had a ton of fun playing Risk of Rain 2, the ones I mentioned above, Deep Rock Galactic is always fun.
I would say browse Steam, maybe try a new genre is the FPS games are bit much (I totally understand as a fellow 40 year old, my reflexes aren’t what they used to be and I get sniped by 12 year olds).
I have plenty of stories from ALL of these games. Just keep trying ones that look interesting to you, and you’ll find one you like. Hell, you may even find one that you like playing alone!
If you have any questions, you can always message me. I love talking about games!
ETA: We have been having a BLAST playing Baldur’s Gate 3 together. It also taught us a lot about how the other person thinks, so we can understand each other better. It’s a great game!
