My husband and I recently switched from playing split-screen to local co-op on two separate Switches. We even bought a second copy of the game.
One thing we really miss from split-screen is being able to pause time by having both players open their menus. We got used to doing this whenever one of us needed a minute. For example, if it’s late and my husband needs to unload his inventory and decide what to sell, I’ll open my menu or go to bed, and then time pauses while he takes care of it.
We’d love for local co-op on two Switches to work the same way. If both players have their menus open, the game clock should pause.
This would also be really helpful when one player is in a cutscene or when we’re just taking a minute to talk about what we want to do that day.
We’ve noticed that even suspending the game on both Switches and going to the Home Screen doesn’t stop the in-game time.
We’d really love to have the same simple pause functionality that we had with split-screen!
