Hammerwatch II

I also like that you can change how abilities work depending on how you invest your skill points.

I appreciate RPGs with co-op multiplayer because we all know there aren't enough out there, but I can't recommend this game in good faith as the setting has no soul, the exploration leaves much to be desired, and multiple game features are inconsequential (day/night cycle, most itemization outside of balancing resistances, crafting, cooking).

There are also few quests that are totally optional and require player to follow through/investigate on their own, which was great.

The bosses all feel distinctive and are definitely the highlight of the game's combat, with the exception of the dragon which constantly cycles into an invincible flying state, making it the most tedious fight.

With its character customization, crafting system, expansive world, tiered gear system, minigame option, and so many quests, it has become my favorite in the series.

But, generally speaking, these are relatively minor and are offset by the solid gameplay and enjoyable challenge at the hardest difficulty.
