1) "What I lost when I played this Game"

2) "Game needs dark souls-esque features"
It's a genius idea; the addition of bloodstains and player-ghosts feature from soulsborne titles can be the perfect trauma-bonding players need in Chained Together. The haunting presence of other fallen climbers is just what this player demands as if the fiery underworld isn't already gloomy and daunting enough.
The silhouettes and the occasional bloodstains can spice things up, letting you relive the moments of other fallen players. Put simply, this player wants their co-op frustration to be mixed with a healthy dose of spookiness. It's an evil idea, honestly, but we're absolutely for it.
3) "I despise my friends with every fiber of my being"
Although you can play Chained Together solo, the only way to experience its true despair is by playing co-op. If you have friends who own the game, you already have a ticket to board the train and hate them with all your might. You will scream unspeakable phrases at them.
This game will re-program you to hate your friends. All of that did not prevent the user from rating the game a 10/10. It suggests the game offers a unique kind of fun, perhaps the hilarious frustration of constantly being yanked back down by your well-meaning (surely) and cautious friends.
4) "This game needs to show a replay after each failure"
One of the best parts of Chained Together is that you can blame anyone after you die. Sure, you can be the culprit too, but there's no way to verify who was the actual reason behind the downfall. Unless, of course, there's a replay system to scrutinize your failures.
The user longs for the sweet satisfaction (or rage-filled feud) of watching the replay after each demise to identify the exact point that caused the group to fail. Understandably, many would be opposed to this, because, what good is a co-op online game without blame-shifting?

5) "YOU JUMP AT 3! NOT 2!"
Chained Together depicts the classic struggle of co-op gaming: agreeing on a plan. On paper, it sounds rather easy to decide on a countdown and jump at the right moment. Put this in a co-op survival game and you watch the pandemonium unfurl before your eyes.
The frustration when you jump early (or late) is captured perfectly in this review, followed by the dramatic scream perfectly shows the descent into madness that surely followed.
