Playing on ps5. Haven’t found a way to merge screens except in cut scenes by hitting listen. Game is almost unplayable with local co-op. What a loss. You can choose to highlight characters in options with both circle and highlighting and increase font size of subtitles to help. Unfortunately even on a 52 two inch screen we can’t read the small text hardly at all, and most of the game is tiny text. Combine that with the split screen camera view and it’s really hard to tell what’s going on. Our first three hours were spent largely in confusion. Sometimes if I rotate both cameras on each screen just right I can do things like pick up a backpack or free a prisoner, of course that’s after picking up every other of the twenty items on the table.
