With you on the different coop mode. A freeroam with no missons would be nice, because there'd be no concequence if one player wasn't at same point of the story. HOWEVER. What if they're 15-20 levels apart? That narrows the areas you can go and explore togheter, except it the lower level is some sort of daredevil masoschist.. So what then, you could level your character in coop? But then when you go back to story, you'd end up with a possible totally broken character.. not that abusive grinding was never a thing.

If anything, I'd live some sort of Trial similar to the Everfall to be available in co-op. Y'a don't need no story for that to work, nor any small quests to give you some sense of adventure. Just pure preparation for a journey down the depths of Hell with a buddy. Can you make it back togheter?

Either way I'll be waiting for DD2 for a couple years I hope, since I'd likely be disapointed if some rushed sequel came out with even more of a botched story. (I mean, other than the dragon and arisen dilema thing, the story was pretty meh and full of holes)
