    Ok I get the Microsoft hate… I’m trying to introduce my daughter to Minecraft because it’s a great game to just explore adventure and creativity. I own like 5 accounts all of them were username and password, and all of them paid for. But since they didn’t have an email address I couldn’t find most of them? I managed to get one back and it required the worst Microsoft account log in experience. When I finally managed to get into the game and be able to play it there was no way for me to do split screen.

    How the hell is there no native split screen. The console versions have it. I had to spend hours finding mods and have to open 3 different programs just to get the game to open and play split screen by running 2 different Minecraft screens, and even then half the time it doesn’t even work.

    It turned me off so bad I said eff it and found some platform games for my daughter and I to play. Of which there are few, apparently Nintendo owns the best ones, Sony with their astrobots. I was left with some hat in time game which wasn’t bad. But it definitely left a lot to desire.

    I guess I’ll have to check out it takes two

        Oh yeah her and I put in over 100 hours into it. It was scary watching her play because I let her have her own save and she was like on year 4 with nothing done because she refused to leave the house when it rained. And didn’t know how to water crops so she just explored. Oh how much I forget how knowing nothing of how games are supposed to be played leads to just mindless wandering lol
