Grounded, one of my top three favorite games of all time, is a masterpiece of creativity and storytelling that transports players into a world of adventure, survival, and cooperation. However, the experience often gets spoiled by the frustrating high latency and frequent disconnects that occur when trying to play with others in the same room or building. This issue arises because players must connect to the internet to play together, even in local settings.

As we eagerly anticipate the release of Grounded 2, it is crucial to address this connectivity issue by incorporating LAN support. LAN (Local Area Network) gaming allows players to connect directly to each other's devices without the need for an internet connection. This not only ensures smooth gameplay but also enriches the multiplayer experience by eliminating lag and connectivity disruptions.

Obsidian Entertainment, renowned for listening to their community and delivering high-quality gaming experiences, has the opportunity to enhance Grounded 2 by adding this essential feature. Local multiplayer gaming has always been a cherished tradition, fostering social interaction and teamwork in a shared physical space.

Implementing LAN support in Grounded 2 will cater to a significant portion of the player base who value fast and reliable connectivity. It will also align with the expectations of modern gamers who often seek seamless and responsive gaming experiences.

We urge Obsidian Entertainment to consider this request seriously in their developmental plans for Grounded 2. Enhancing the local multiplayer functionality will undoubtedly elevate the game's popularity and ensure it remains a beloved choice for cooperative gaming sessions.
