I'd just as soon call this the death of co-op games. How many can be played without an internet connection? Split-screen, LAN, direct IP connections, and private servers are super rare now, and it sucks. Plenty of games in that chart from 2018 might not even be playable anymore, and plenty more can go down when Steam servers are down for maintenance or will be unplayable when you're on a train or some other location without internet access.
Split-screen is an instabuy for me, I wish it was more popular among devs.
What pisses me off is when split screen exist for console but not PC (looking at you Terraria and Don't Starve Together)
I feel you. I wanted it on Diablo 3. My kids complain about Minecraft not having split-screen on PC.
