- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I love couch co-op, but BG3 has all manner of bugs in co-op on PS5.
Your PSN name and a "mute" icon is overlaid at all times in the top corner of the screen where your rolls and character approval/disapproval information should appear.
From about halfway through Act 1, swapping characters (which you do all the time) triggers multi second pauses for both players.
Cut scene bugs, like invisible characters, no lip sync, no voice acting, voice acting only on alternate lines, one cut scene didn't actually load at all, just leaving me with the text and a screen full of fog.
We also had no tutorials, but this does appear to be rectified now via a patch released yesterday.
Not sure what happened to the horn-fest other players got, but I suspect that co-op players aren't getting full "reputation" with NPCs, as this appears to be tracked individually.
