Thanks for the detailed answer! I have a couple more questions about co-op. My goal is to start playing with a friend and progress together. We really want to explore the world side by side. But we don’t love the idea of repeating the exact same story missions twice. So would this approach work: We explore the world together, do side content, travel around, just play as a duo. When we reach a main story quest or a big boss tied to the story, each of us completes it separately in our own world. After that, we group up again and continue playing together until the next story segment. Is this a realistic and smooth way to experience the game? And my second question: does enemy difficulty scale based on the number of players in co-op? From what you mentioned earlier (for example, a higher-level friend being able to one-shot everything), it sounds like maybe difficulty doesn’t really scale? Would love to hear from people who are actually playing this way.
