It’s an “if you build it they will come” issue. People stopped with couch parties because no games supported it anymore. When I’ve done it, most games in question had the option for internet play but it just wasn’t as social.

I have an X not an S, but my wife and I will absolutely be using couch co-op when this comes out.

4 player co-op in Minecraft Dungeons, with the whole family, this year. I fucking love same device co-op games, but there are hardly any good options anymore, because apparently most people are either single or don’t like being in the same room as their partner or friends.

What does this have anything to do with the modern age? You’re making a massive assumption about something you know absolutely nothing about. Just because someone wants to use couch co-op doesn’t mean they don’t live in the modern age. What kind of dumb assessment is that? Also, are you unaware how DnD games are typically played? It’s-gasp-in person with other people. Wow!

I constantly use it. I play with my partner, not with randos on the internet, not with friends. We live in the same house. We already bought 2 copies on PC to support the devs, but being forced to do so would be a shitty move. Also, when we have friends over, we do not expect them to bring their own PCs and shit if we want to game. Couch coop is where it’s at.

A lot of people would love to have more split screen co-op (or Vs) games.
Its stupid that if I have a friend round I cant play a multiplayer game with them.
