Shared inventory menus for splitscreen

In Minecraft Dungeons, local splitscreen inventories should have at least an option to take up a section of the screen and have multiple player inventories open at the same time, similar to regular Minecraft.  I was playing with my three younger boys, and the pacing of one dungeon was awful because every time we opened a chest or two each player would have to separately open their inventory one at a time, taking up the whole screen, and decide between their items.  It took a lot away from playing and it became a discussion about whether we would check our equipment at all while exploring, or wait to see new gear once at camp.

    Agreed. (Same for blacksmith, btw.)

    I play with my sons (one who has autism, so teaching him to wait a sec is going to take awhile) and we often end up attacked while one of my sons is in his inventory, plus the issues you mentioned about pacing (we sit in the menu at least as much as we play the game...).

    The inventory and blacksmith screens should be per player screens, and not forced for the other players so we can defend other players while they tweak their item mix.
