it’s very much borrowed from one of the reddit subs i frequent(ed) often, but the idea is to share what we’re playing weekly and hopefully create discussions around those games (or simply have a sort of “check-in”).

    I really wanted to play the new Co-op mode with my friend where we both share the same empire, since he’s pretty new to the game and this is a great way to teach the mechanics.

    Unfortunately it’s so buggy that we can’t even get out of the early game (2240s). There are just so many Desyncs that it’s pretty much impossible to have a session longer than 15 minutes.

      Oh nice, I actually hadn’t noticed that they added coop. I could certainly use an extra hand right now as I’m just stuck on playing whack-a-mole with the remnants of the war-in-heaven losers. So much border gore, closed borders, and million tiny fleets everywhere unexpected and recapping their territory. This was the part I didn’t miss, and why I’ve never finished a game :)
