Remote Play! & Second Screen?

YES, Neverwinter can be played through Remote Play via a PS Vita, PC, and/or Smart Phone. Apparently it was a requirement that PS4 games HAD to be Remote Play Compatible. PlayStation even sells a Bluetooth USB Stick now for linking your DualShock 4 up wirelessly with your PC. I just have a PS Vita and cant really "play" Neverwinter through it cuz my PS Vita is missing its shoulder buttons so i just somethings use it to clear out my bags or surf the auction house. I came across an interesting feature though that is called Second Screen. Whenever the prompt to enter text pops up on my PS4 the little touch keyboard on PS Vita pops up, even in Neverwinter! It makes typing alot faster for sure but it also has this Second Screen Tab. I was just wondering how hard it would be for the developers to get our inventory to show up there or even just the mini map?

    You can play on vita away from home but using R2 and L2 is pita.. I sold the vita for this reason alone. You can also use the vita to play at home as a screen while the DS4 is connected to ps4. I forget how exactly, but it involves signing on as guest and switching controller back to main account.. Something like that.

    You are correct on how to connect and use it while at home. Although if remote playing I prefer using PC as you log in with your main account ... I don't see why you would want to sign in as a guest myself.. but it's whatever works for you.

    Its so you can actually use the vita as your screen and use the dualshock 4 controller. For whatever dumb reason, you cant link the ds4 directly to the vita. Say a family member want to watch cable tv but you want to play neverwinter with ds controller.. I think you log in as guest on ps4, then link vita as main, and next reasign ds4 controller to main..

    Even if you can use a DS4 for pc the game itself doesn't offer controller support. You would have to use a 3rd party program to map out controls. Something I really wish they would change.
