The Playstation version has couch co-op but requires a ps plus subscription to play.
The pc version will run on a steam deck but since it's a battle.net game it takes a bit of work to get it running.
I doubt inventory will be too much of an issue on console/controller. I've not tried myself but the interface seems decent and I've not seen anyone complain about it being annoying.
A crypto coin is only worth as much as the hype surrounding it, so the people holding a lot of crypto needed something beyond "you can use this to buy drugs on the internet" to generate hype.
It turns out that more than a few people investing in tech don't really understand what they invest in, but are highly susceptible to FOMO so any tech company wanting a quick cash injection put together a blockchain/nft/play-to-earn/web3 pitch.
I will happily take a very buggy launch over half-baked design - especially in an open world Bethesda game.
If a launch similar to Fo4 or Fo76 means we don't get a progression system like constellations from Skyrim (inconsistently balanced and with many missing the point of the tree entirely) I will be glad
The game has been very popular with the people who knew about it while it was in testing. Combine that with the last battlefield game not doing great (and even some trouble brewing with Squad) it seemed like a hit waiting to happen .
