Don't forget PoE have server and lag issues. So, with cross play, the problem will be doubled.
My brother and I are going to play the hell out of couch co-op! Thank you for adding it!
Couch co op is amazing. What a wonderful idea and execution!
Damn that fullscreen character screen looks amazing. It's insane just how good this game looks visually once you see the characters full model like that
Great job, guys! Allowing multiple account sign-ins for couch co-op is such a great feature! Seeing your character up close like that in the inventory screen looks great!
You guys blew me out of the water with your trailers today. I'm so happy for you all! It's going to be so rad.

According to GGG the term "nearby" has no specific meaning, it just means that the range is not infinite. But they have been putting numbers on more and more skills so I'm hoping that the term will just not exist in POE 2.
This brings back so many memories! As a kid I used to couch co-op random video games after school with friends and it was so fun. Really happy this has been added as an option! GGG JUST DOESN'T MISS.

@@HDJess Yes you can. All modern KbM are universally plug and play. Each device has a unique hardware identifier so it's just a matter of assigning each device to a player to split hardware input. Even still, making at least 1 controller mandatory for PC couch coop only would still be a fine compromise.

Hi, I´m a POE player on PS4/PS5 since 2019 and with 5000 hours of play and this console version of POE2 is brutal. I greatly appreciate all the work you're doing with the console community. Thank you very much and greetings from Spain. I ❤POE2 🤘

The servers can't handle real ARPG action, my modded TL2 has a lot more enemies and bosses on a map than in POE, there are a lot more bosses and in some places even in 2 or 3 versions so it becomes really difficult to defeat them. PoE can't come close to keeping up and poses no challenge at all for me
You can tell the developers and programmers actually love playing games and they are not just doing this for the ‘business’. The passion and motivation really shines through
Viewing your character in zoomed in full size in character selection and inventory screen is so amazing and I missed it so much in poe.
Amazing work team !
the problem with tiwn stick is that you can't push most of the buttons while aiming/moving, hopefully autoaim and targetlocking can eleviate most of the pain

@@chuckles9767 I suppose I can understand that for HCSSF, which I do not play myself. However, having to face the direction you want to block with your shield is completely unnecessary. In arpg's you get swarmed. Although in poe you should also be nuking the screen. Having to go back and forth with your right thumb is going to be worse than the problem that you describe, due to reduced attack, & potion time.. - in my opinion. I never once even thought about that in poe, personally. Arpg's have never had or needed that feature. Atleast none that I've played. We should have the ability to toggle that on or off because it isn't applicable to every build and I genuinely don't believe in endgame content that will be efficient whatsoever. Now, I hope you're right and it works better than I'm fearing it will.
Whoa!!
Not so long ago I searched for the console release and cross play, couldn’t find anything. Glad this clears things up. Very excited!
Keep up the great work guys, can't wait to get my hands on this one!

I’m the same I always found it disheartening over the years seeing less and less coop games especially when some would come out that just seemed to suit it so well but didn’t bother to make coop a feature … in a similar sense local multiplayer has become less commonplace in modern games aswell and I’d love to see local multiplayer and coop make a comeback.. so many great memories are made this way it’s one of the best gaming experiences you can have imo and should be more commonplace in the games of today.. this game looks great I can’t wait to get into it with my close ones, super siked they went this direction with poe2 I’m sure many a fun time will be had
