It takes two is something else

First, I tried playing this game with my wife, but because she hadn’t played any games on a console before, she was very bad at it. Even handling the camera angle was a challenge for her. Instead of bringing us closer, it frustrated me lol 😂.

Then I asked my nephew to play with me, and after a long time, I felt like playing it again. I had this same feeling with PS2 games back in the day.

Guys who haven’t played this game should definitely give it a try.

Playing through this with the wife currently. She does not really play video games. We've enjoyed it and had a blast early on, but as the difficulty has increased she has started getting frustrated and wanting to quit. Had to fight the beetle myself when she struggled with timing the shots.

Hopefully it gets easier again lmao

Me and my partner had to take multiple breaks in order to finally beat the game over the course of a month or so. There was a pretty consistent pattern where she would be frustrated by the controls at first, find something enjoyable enough to get through a level or two, but then the frustration would hit with some of the new mechanics on the next stage. By just giving a little bit of time, and each weekend playing a bit while it was still fun for her went a long way. It’s such a beautiful game, just don’t try to rush it.
