IGN: Sure. [Laughs] Back to the game, one thing that wasn’t clear to me yesterday. Do you have to play it online in a group of three, or can you also play it solo or in a duo?

Junya Ishizaki: The game is designed to be played as a three-person team, but you can play it as a solo player.

IGN: Oh, great. Or in a pair?

Junya Ishizaki: No, it's either one-player or three-player.

So it's either single player or three humans.

Stupid, but at least better than for example Helldivers 2.

No, because Helldivers 2 will let you play with any number of up to 4 players. 1,2,3,or 4. Not only 1 or 4.

Yes, but the gameplay is absolutely not tailored towards solo players. I tried and it was a mess.

So far we don't know this'll be tailored for solo, either.

I don't know, I usually play duo and 5-6 is overtuned, and nearly impossible. Especially on automatons, because it just spawns infinity low levels. But then diff 9-10 feel like diff 3-4 because even though they spawn the big enemies, for some reason it spawns less of the low levels.

The game feels like it has automatic scaling, but it always feels like it is set up wrong.

I think I just did automatons back then because that's where the rewards were but it was a completely overwhelming number of enemies spawning in non-stop. Combined with the sort of time limit I just did not enjoy that experience at all. Maybe you can kinda get better and grind through it I feel I'd rather waste my time and money on something that's balanced around singleplayer, even if just optionally.
