The gameplay was SUPER tight. It was honestly the best co-op game experience I've ever had. The game felt like it was designed from the ground up with the goal of providing each player with enough moments as a supporter, and enough moments in the spotlight, to never get bored. And I would leave it at that if it weren't for the insufferable writing. Cody and May are just kind of ... bad people? And they're being rightfully tormented by a horribly obnoxious, somewhat racially insensitive, cutscene hogging talking self help book. They deserve this fate, but I, the player, did nothing wrong!!! Why do I have to listen to him too??? Also, don't love the intrinsic message of the game is that divorce is for bad people who don't try hard enough to love each other. Like, oof. I wish the game ended with them learning how to cooperate but still going through with the divorce. Would've been way more appropriate given all the writing leading up to that end.
Four stars is a high rating for a game whose writing my partner and I almost uniformly hated, but the gameplay really is that tight. It's a great game to play co-op, the graphics are gorgeous, and those cutscenes are beautifully animated. Just... mute them, maybe.
