    Very surprising given they never featured any communication systems! I always figured they want to be 100% family safe and any chat/communication feature could be missused against that. A welcome feature though, now i’d only need friends.

    Does it really take up a third of the screen the whole time? I really hope this is for demonstration only…

      I asume it’s a setting to show it or not. Otherwise it would be very annoying, i don’t need to see face of people i play with.

      No, you can have the game full screened, you can have friends showing at the bottom, or you can focus a friends screen as the big one.
