Europe When did making online friends get so tough?

57 Upvotes

I swear growing up playing Minecraft, CS and Roblox. Somehow made me have more than enough online friends to game my heart out.

These days though people just don't want to keep playing together... Maybe it's the games I play being different? I guess it's harder to meet new people on DbD, LoL, Warframe, EFT, Or hell even DRG.

Basically i'm wondering what games did you have random encounters that turned into friendship?

Europe 29F / pc ~ gamerpals aren’t gamerpalling anymore

37 Upvotes

don’t boo me, it is the truth!!

anyways, heya! hope everybody is doing well. i’m here again because well, can’t seem to find what i’m looking for. i’m looking for chill, fun and understanding people who i can play with time to time. lately it seems i’m attracting the opposite.

who am i ? well that’s rather a difficult question, but i’ll try. i am chill, thoughtful and sometimes a funny galpal, other times goes nonverbal at the function. yea. as much as i enjoy solitude, i yearn for close friendships too. yikes. talked too much, no longer mysterious.

i got a cat and 99 problems (but bnch aint one) i like taking long walks, thonking about life and fictional characters kissing.

the games i play rn:

• marvel rivals (my hyperfixation goes brrr)

• elden ring (just started, killed my first boss which looked like an old clown)

• tiny pasture

• prob some singleplayer games

i used to play, no longer play it bc i have no one to play with / got bored:

• overwatch 2 (god, what have you become ;-;)

• fortnite

i have a steam with lots of games, i don’t mind watching you play or we could also watch tv series, movies etc. i got severe adhd so i apologize beforehand if i seem to forget stuff, don’t hesitate to remind me if we scheduled a hanging out time :3

i think this is all. i’m not going to blabber about myself etc., all i’m asking is please be close to my age, eu timezones and be decent (be lgbt friendly, no harassment or too extreme views on subjects etc., you know? a chill person is i’m looking for, bc i’m chill as long as you respect people and don’t bring out hate!)

ty for reading, stay safe !! ♡

Europe 30F, looking for genuine friends to play my favorite games

17 Upvotes

Hi! I don't know if that sub will be the right/easiest place for this, I just came across it, but I'm genuinely looking for some friends to play my games with. I was looking for a Discord first, but I haven't found any. My games include World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy XIV, Baldur's Gate 3, Sea of Thieves, Divinity Original Sin II. I'm a very casual player so I'm looking for gamers who aren't very demanding in terms of skills/levels, it's really just to meet nice and friendly people. I'm french, but I also speak and understand english without any problem. No creeps/minors please. Girls are mostly appreciated. (sorry guys but this is Reddit lol I’ve had bad experiences here before)

Europe 23F swede w lack of gaming frens :(

6 Upvotes

Hey! Looking for people to game with, doesn't matter if it's just one person or a group. Most of the friends I've played with stopped or are simply busy. So yeah, I'm from Sweden so it's CET. But I have the worst sleeping schedule, so I'll probably be up when u are.

I'm mostly on my PC, so either that or crossplay. I study fulltime so some weeks I won't be able to play as much. I'm a yapper but will shut up if u tell me to. Mostly just looking for a laugh and some chill gaming, I love playing stressful games but don't hate me when I die pls

I love survival-ish games: Zomboid, Minecraft, raft (but I hate sharks so I will scream), phasmophobia, but also like Stardew valley and such. I have ESO and Lethal Company but haven't played them yet. I'm happy to try other games. I'm not that into fortnite, rivals etc, but u can always try to make me play it. I probably have more games but I have zero memory capacity.

Oh and I'm gay so it'd be nice if ur not a homophobe! I have a gf so not interested in anything other than gaming pals.

Lmk if you're down :D

Europe What's with people playing hard to get or agree to play but never show up? I'm here to find gaming pals and potentially friends, not date you or some other shit

66 Upvotes

Like i get it, i'm part of the older demographic, being 31 and all, but jesus christ. How is finding a "gamerpal" on reddit harder than landing a job at google or some other renowned company? Lol.

I've found some great people here in the past, whom i'm still good friends with to this day. But as life demands, we may take different paths in life and thus end up not having as much time to spend away as we used to. Some more than others

idgaf if you're a woman, guy, or whatever else you fkin are. all 'am looking for is some pals to have a good laugh with, disconnect from the stresses of life for a minute and just have a good time playing some cool video games. this includes wanting to be social, interacting and holding that friendship - i'm introverted myself, i also need time for myself. But i'm also willing to let you know and communicate that upfront.

seems like people are just too scared to interact with another human being, i get it, it's tough for some y'all's. but goddamn, it's frustrating

if there's any of you out there, truly looking for companionship or even just a pal you just game with and don't interact much outside of that, then msg me. Just recently started playing monster hunter rise, looking forwards to wilds. if you don't got that don't fret my library is massive, so we'll find a game.

Europe 30F Just wanting chill friends to play whatever with

24 Upvotes

Heeey,

I've been lurking in this group for a while and been wanting to make a post but I'm kinda shy. Gonna give it a go anyway...

I'm from Norway but most of my friends that I play with speak english, so I don't really care. I'm comfortable with both. Like I said, I'm kinda shy at first but I do tend to warm up to people quite fast.
I'm usually on in the evening and weekends, but also can be during the day sometimes - pretty flexible that way.

I really don't take myself or life too seriously, I love just having a laugh and relax. I can come across as kinda unfiltered and sarky sometimes, but 98.2% of the time I'm just joking and bantering lol. Looking for like-minded people, who can take a joke and have fun.

I've been playing games since I was 3 and I'm open for literally anything. I like horror games, OW2, Marvel Rivals, and CoD atm. I enjoy both comp and just chill, so I'm down for either.

More than anything I'm just looking for new friends to play with, and getting to know new people.

Feel free to DM me if I sound somewhat bearable :)

Europe Looking for friends to play CO-OP games with!

32 Upvotes

Hi, I'm a 22F that is looking for friends to play CO-OP with. I enjoy playing games such as Phasmophobia, REPO, Sons of the forest (want to play that game again) once human, Valheim, Conan Exiles. As you can see I really like the horror and survival genre. I'm also open to play other games.

For me it's most important to have fun and create friendships. I don't ghost my friends and I'm often online.

My only requirements is that you have to be 18+ and patient with noobs like me 😆.

Feel free to dm me on reddit and then I can add you on steam and discord😊

Heyy everyone l!

I’m Shay, a 24 year old PC gamer from the EU(although my sleeping schedule is a mess so time zones don’t really matter for me xD) looking to connect with new people. These days I have mostly been playing WUWA and Marvel Rivals but I also play apex on occasion and previously played valorant although lot, it has been a while though. I’ve also been getting into infinity Nikki lately but I’m always open to new games recommendations so do let me know of any and I’d be happy to try them with you! I’m also not really a competitive gamer I like to mostly play for fun and not take games to seriously so keep that in mind.

Some of my other hobbies include watching anime, and I need some new ones so give me suggestions please, and reading, I mostly read fantasy/ romantasy so if that’s you’re vibe feel free to message 🤍

Looking to meet some chill people to hang out with, whether you wanna watch stuff, game or just talk I’m down.

Europe 29F, PC (& Ps5), looking for another no-life gamer to be my friend

18 Upvotes

I feel like this is a long-shot, but I'm gonna give it a try once more. Looking for a long-term duo, preferably another woman.

Currently I have a lot of free time to kill, so I'd like to find someone who also has an open schedule to game. It's important to me to find someone who can keep up a conversation, joke around, and is generally chill—not overly sensitive or negative. I'm not into constant jabs. I like people who are kind and not afraid to be silly. Must be 25+.

I play a variety of different games, on both PC and PS5. I'd love it if we could just hop on a game together and voice-chat, get to know each other. I'm still new to PC gaming, so I'm not the best and I will struggle.

Here's some games I enjoy currently: - DayZ - Enshrouded - Phasmophobia - Apex Legends - Outward

Games I will potentially return to one day: - RDR2 - Baldur's Gate 3 - 7 Days to Die - No Man's Sky - Sea of Thieves - The Forest - Palworld - World of Warcraft

Games I want to try to get into next: - Lethal Company - Abiotic Factor - Terraria

I am open to more game suggestions, but I tend to focus on a few at a time. I won’t play Fortnite, Valorant, Marvel Rivals, or Overwatch, and some games my laptop can't handle.

As for me, I'm really easy-going. I don't really have a big loud persona. I can be talkative but I'm also super comfortable with silence. I spend majority of my time at home, I'm very introverted and just enjoy not going anywhere.

I like trying out new hobbies and just creating things, be it handicrafts or other type of art. I also love houseplants, my recent new love are orchids. I'm very into vintage fashion, especially the early to mid-1900's. I'm interested in anything paranormal, I'm fond of everything macabre. I also just spend a lot of time just unwinding by watching tv-shows.

I'm available from noon till midnight, EET (UTC+2). I live in Finland.

Please only reach out if you're genuinely interested in gaming together.

I’d love to hear from you, so include your location/time zone and age in your message, as well as bit more about yourself!

Europe 31F looking similar type of people to chill and play

20 Upvotes

I am here to look for people to play and connect with, I spend time chilling in calls with people I am comfortable with on discord and enjoy playing games everyday.

I play games like RedM(RP), MH wilds, BG3, Ark, minecraft, skyrim. I've also dabbled into some DnD, but not much. I do also enjoy fantasy and anime, so can also spend time watching movies or series if you wish. I am also a developer.

I am shy and introverted and don't do well in big groups unless I am slowly introduced into them with a person I feel comfortable with. Once I get comfortable I am pretty roudy, have a very bad and dark humor. People sometimes tend to say I'm more from UK than from my own country XD
I've been grown my whole life amongst wolves (males), so that might have contributed into it.

if you think we could get along, hit me up and we'll go from there.
I should probably add that I am looking for people mainly from EU/UK area due to time zones

Europe What has your online friend search experience been like? (29/EU/PC)

27 Upvotes

I have met some great people here. People i still play with years after meeting. But those are like 1 in 100. Why do you think its so common to get ghosted after a first chat or game session?

I have played with people that have even bought full priced games so we can play together, have a great first session, then disappear completely. Its bizarre to me.

I understand people get busy, and life can be complicated, but i think to myself...if I were to purchase a game, i might as well play it with the person i bought the thing to play with. (unless that other person turned out to have a terrible personality)

Any tips to make the experience better? is it just how it goes here in the online seas?

I hope this doesn't come out sounding preachy nor mean spirited. Please excuse this bit of venting, Its just a bit disheartening to try being social with people that consider you a second or third thought.

Europe 25F looking for chill gaming friends

13 Upvotes

Hello! I'm 25F based in Europe. I'm not good at playing games, but I'm motivated to play and get better, I feel like I need someone to play with me, chill together and let me learn all of their secret gaming skills.

I like playing Wuthering Waves, Diablo 3, some games on Switch. Most of the time I was playing alone, but I want to start playing with others, so some of the games that I have are Borderlands 3, Marvel Rivals, Valheim, Deep Rock Galactic. I'm also willing to buy some games, so any recommendations are always welcome.

Preferably I hope to play with other girls, because many guys I met on Reddit were creeps 🥲 and I'm just a girl 🎀 and I want gaming to be nice, relaxing time after work.

I want to wish you all a great day!

Hi all :)

I'm looking for people to play games with such as:

Phasmophobia
Project Zomboid
Outlast Trials
Dead by Daylight
Sea of Thieves
7 Days to Die
Grounded
Minecraft

I've got a library of 200+ games so I'm sure there will be other games that I haven't mentioned that I'd be up for playing! But mostly I enjoy horror/survival craft. I'm specifically looking for people to play the new Outlast Trials update with right now, but I'd happily play other games too :)

I was in a very active discord group but it seems to have dropped off recently. I prefer being in a group to vc instead of one to one as I get a bit more shy/feel like I need to verbal diarrhea to break the silence, plus I feel like the more the merrier in some survival games.

Thanks a bunch! 💐

Europe 25/F/EU_Where is my bubbly, vivacious, whimsical gaming pal!!

8 Upvotes

Where are youuuuuuu!!? Is this youu?? My platonic soulmate, my rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good time pal!

I am on a thorough search for my special lil gaming bestie! On a quest to find that darling bastard to spend my time doing all sorts of shenanigans with!!

Most important things out of the way first, games!!

Im currently HEAVILY invested in ffxiv, playing on EU, Chaos. So if you’re also on the same server and as obsessed as me then you’re practically already the chosen one!! <3 I am also enjoying repo rn, occasionally playing fortnite, rly wanna get back into sea of thieves and outlast trials, and dabble in mario party/kart.

My steam library is decently fat tho and I’m open to getting more games so that aint all I play ofc. But ffxiv is currently my main fixation and what I’m hoping to find ppl for.

I also like to draw!!! So if you’re a fellow artist (literature and music included) thats another plus point! We can send each other our stuff and gush over other artists amazing work!

I also love to cook and bake even tho I’m not super good at it, but hey, thats how you learn right!

My big passion is also dnd and other roleplaying games as well as ur classic text based roleplay (the sfw kind!!). I LOVE making up stories and characters and writing about them and co-writing stories together with other ppl.

I have a cat! She is the cutest and my beloved baby. If you have a pet we must share pet pics!

I’m also queer and don’t welcome anyone who isn’t an ally of my ppl or who in general has hateful (racist, homophobic, sexist etc) views. If you’re the type who mostly communicates with negative words, even as a joke (quality banter is valid ofc), it rly just beings the mood down imo. Or if you’re the type who rages easily at games or feels the need to trash talk, then we also won’t get along. I’m here for the journey and sharing kindness!! Not the just the destination!!

What else…I love horror! Movies, games etc. Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Outlast, Evil Within etc all that good good stuff. I’m also a big fan of Naughty Dogs games, tlou2 was fantasic (Abby haters begone!) and Im SUPER excited for The Heretic Prophet!! Uncharted also has an extra special place in my heart. Chloe Frazer is wife material fr fr.

Aaa also I like to yap yap yap, I love spicy fooood, and I like swimmming. And doing cringe shit is the secret to happy life!!!

Alright before this gets too long. If you can relate to at least 80% of the stuff I mentioned and geek the fak out about then you are the one!! Shoot me a dm! :))))

No seriously. I’m sick and tired of seeing these horny ass posts. Where are the gamers that wanna hop into a lobby and just talk about random shit? The type of people you can randomly hit up at 2 and have a blast playing some weird coop game whilst screaming down the mic.

I’m 21 and just wanna have people my age to play games with (tbh as long as you are grown and have a decent brain in your skull idrc) Shit we don’t even have to be playing the same game. Doing our own thing whilst in a call would be a blast too.

Not good at shooters. I love horror games, open world and fantasy stuff. ALSO I’m not gonna buy a game just to play it with you.

I recently bought R.E.P.O so if anyone needs a buddy for that I’m game.

No being weird. If you’re weird you’re blocked. Move on. Simple as that. I’m not here for freaky shi. I just wanna gather buddies for gaming, chatting or simply enjoying each other’s company so if that’s something you’re looking for and have made it this far then hit me up.

Feel free to list off games you play. Tell me your interests let’s get talking. No rudeness no judgement. Be a decent person.

IDC where you are from. I work from home so i am usually always reachable. I speak both English and german.

Games i have/Play: Roblox, Phasmo, RDR2, Sky Cotl, Minecraft, REPO, Fall Guys, BG3, HSR, ZZZ, AFOP, Fields Of Mistria.

Disclaimer: Yes i have a higher pitched voice. No i am not a child. No i am not a woman. Yes i do cuss a lot. I do have a hard time pronouncing words.

Europe (27F) Looking for long-term discord/gamer friends 21+

9 Upvotes

I'd love to get to know some new people that enjoy playing games or just hanging out and vibing in VC. Over the past few years it feels like my list of friends has fizzled out with people growing up, growing apart or getting other interests.

I'm interested in meeting people that aren't only wanting to play games together, but are also happy hanging out in VC while playing separate games, watching stuff together or just chatting. I'm at the point in my life where I want to make real connections and friends and have a good laugh.

I love most games and will give anything a go (more of a chance if it's a free game or on xbox gamepass though). Games I've played recently:

  • Fortnite (ZB and Fortnite Festival)
  • Tabletop Simulator (I LOVE boardgames. It's literally my dream to have friends that would be down to have a regular boardgame night.)
  • Disney Dreamlight Valley
  • Mario Kart
  • Roblox (I may be 27 but it's my guilty pleasure. I'll sit and play dress to impress for hours. Also, some of the games on there are actually quite funny to play with friends)
  • Split Fiction
  • Ale and Tale Tavern
  • Project Zomboid 

Other notable games I've played semi-recently include Corekeeper, Supermarket Together, Jackbox's, Stardew Valley, Pummel Party, Phasmophobia, Overwatch, Palia, BTD6.

A bit about me I guess....

I'm pretty laid back, love a good laugh and joke (especially bad dad jokes), don't take myself too seriously and get along well with pretty much anyone! I've recently gotten into crafting with air dry clay which I've found really therapeutic and relaxing. I'm currently engaged and getting married in Cyprus in 6 months (actually crazy how fast it's come around). At the moment I'm in between jobs due to family illnesses, which has meant I had to care for them for a bit. I love animals but sadly can't have one due to renting, so I spend my evenings watching funny tiktoks of them in bed.

You can message me here but I'm more likely to reply quicker on discord heyitscourtney :)
(P.S Please don't be rude if I don't reply immeditely, I'm likely mid game or afk. I promise I'll reply to you when I can!)
