Now before i begin, this ISN'T about co op because everyone hates that idea.
In fact this is a SUGGESTION.

Now i know the whole idea of SCP CB is that your a lone D-class trying to escape, but i wonder if perhaps you don't have to be alone.
What im proposing is that d-9341 (you) work with someone to escape.
Now the NPC doesn't have to follow you, in fact you two work with eachother via radio and help each other (Leave supplies, hints for what's to come etc.)
I don't even think you have to see eachother.
In fact the NPC doesn't even have to be human as we've seen d-9341 work with SCP's before (079 and 035 to name a few.)
I really think that there's hope here and that someone should hopefully see that.
