But the story should be available in solo as well to prevent the distorted jump from frienemies to besties if you skip the co-op. A friend could jump right in and take control of John like before. And the devs could have doubled the necro hoards to offset the extra help which would have created more awesome encounters. It would have made John seem like a real character.
That way he would have actually been there with Isaac fighting, helping, gradually building their alliance and friendship. Anyway it makes solo a bit of a mess.Ī better way would have been to make John into an NPC companion (and not lock his content behind co-op, geezus EA.). John either just stands there doing nothing or it’s “we’re cut off I’ll catch up to you later”, and then he just appears next to Isaac in the cut scene like he was always there which is so broken, especially when you hear him talking to you when fighting the snow beast and the nexus as though he’s fighting with you when he’s not.
It literally jumps from “we’re not friends” at the beginning to “you’re a good man we’re best friends” at the end with no in between to establish the friendship unless you play co-op. If you play the solo campaign there really is no attempt to tell Carver’s story or build his friendship with Isaac. I just finished my first play through of DS3, and thought it was a good game overall, but the solo campaign felt kind of broken with the way they locked content behind the co-op wall.
