For people who played BG3 in couch co-op already, what was the experience like exactly? Was it annoying to be linked to the same camera / environment compared to usual online coop where every player has their own controls I imagine? Is there a lot of downtime while someone is managing their character/inventory? Also, would you recommend it for the first playthrough?
I'm waiting for the dust to settle (and to have some more free time) but I am curious about trying it down the line, possibly over steam remote play.
Also interested to hear! Wife and I have our own games going separately right now for our first play though but we’ve talked about co-oping. Interested to hear the couch experience!
Wife and I are really liking it. We don't have a lot of time to play these days though since we have a 5 month old. Besides the audio issues it's been a great experience so far! Seems like this game has enough to keep us entertained for a long time.
I'm literally in the same boat with a 4 month old. I should get her to try this with me.
Can a 4-month-old even hold a controller?
Can a parent use duck tape to wrap things together?
