Let’s begin with the graphics: they may not be outstanding, but they’re definitely solid and pleasant overall.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
My friend wanted to try the co-op campaign, so naturally we are playing it on the hardest difficulty and thus far SE 5 has been a very fun stealth shooter with a lot to do inside the missions.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is a co-op mode (it's more fun with friends), counter-coop or player invasion (if you allow it) and there is a survival mode and classic multiplayer.
