What are the general thoughts around crossplay?

I love it for PvE games - but I don't think it has any place in competitive PvP games (be that FPS games, racing games etc.)

You just open up every platform to complain (PC complaining about aim assist, console complaining about mouse/keyboard, both platforms thinking everyone cheats with a Cronus or ESP on PC).

It's been around 6+ years now that it's been a thing ever since Fortnite implemented it and it took off from there. I play with some friends who have no idea it's even a thing and others that refuse to play with crossplay on because of dealing with people cheating on PC / dealing with console aim assist.

Some games do it well, Fortnite for instance. But in others like Warzone it seems heavily in favour of controller players.

Yeah totally agree that some games do it better than others. Fortnite is weird in that it groups everyone into a big pool, I got killed by someone on Switch the other week...

I like how Apex and OW2 do it, console is default crossplay then if anyone parties with a PC player then it opens up the wider player pool. It means I can play with my console friends when we want but they can also play as just their group if they want to avoid PC players. Also means if I play with a mate of mine on PC who regularly whines about aim assist, we can avoid that convo entirely.
