True Story, Bob

Mass Effect had some real good dialogue for background chatting. This piece in particular is really immersive and funny to boot.

Major problem I forgot: I think the dialogues are text based, so you might have to read it out loud or wait until your kid can read at a comfortable speed (if she can’t already). :)

Hey!

It’s not coop, but I recently played “The Big Con” (with Gamepass) and it’s more of a fun ride with an easy control scheme and decent puzzles. While the FeMC isn’t the classic “strong female lead”, she is a teenager growing up and develops throughout the game and it’s story.

I found it very funny (your daughter might not get every joke, tough), depicts some good topics (trust, family and responsibility) in a very lighthearted way with a cute art style. :)

Actually playing Exoprimal and it’s… Good. Better than expected, honestly. It’s got some pacing issues (among others) and practically forces you to play for 5 hours or so to get more content, but man. The father you get in the story, the better it gets (gameplay wise, but story is also good imo). Also noteworthy: except server issues (not that common tough, for me) I haven’t got any bugs or glitches, at least none I remember. Kind of a rare sight these days

Man, that’s actually so sad. But I guess most gamers will find that one game they want to like (because it’s critically acclaimed, their friends are super into it, etc.), but it just won’t work.

I had that experience with Valheim. On paper it looks like a fun viking-esque Minecraft with a bit more RPG elements. In practice I just found out cumbersome and the gameplay loop felt just plain boring/unsatisfying.
