Thread 33569433

I love online video games, I played smite 1 for many years and most of that time was spent solo queueing. I wanna get into smite 2 but I wanna do it with friends this time, i just don't know how to find them.

Often time Ive been recommended those enormous gaming discord channel with like 1000 ppl in it but I'd rather have a small group of tightly nit frens u know what i mean

>How do I make vidya friends
I stopped playing online games, but I used to play them. I made a lot of friends in Valorant, friends that I talk till this day. Everything will depend on the game you're going to play and the community you're a part of. Usually I would just talk in the voice chat, make jokes. After the match I would send them a friend invite and DM them telling to add me on Discord, and it worked like 99% of the times. It went to the point I build a server Discord server full of people I met on Valorant and we would play every weekend together. After a few months, it went from Valorant to playing other games and even watching movies. Nice times. Bu then one of my friends put another dude in there, he would make fun of me and act like an asshole, so I quit.

Not OP here. I also want to pick up some games I have on my backlog, primarily co-op survival stuff like Rust or Project Zomboid. Thing is, I am a noob and at 37 don't want to play with zoomers. What do?

I got nearly 3k hours on smite mostly queuing with friends from school but also lots of time solo queuing too. I added some people from lobbies to my friends list and invited them whenever they were online, but i mainly enjoyed ragebaiting people for fun

Isn't this what preddit is for?

Never played smite or know anything about it, but I made my gaming friends through either in game social features like text or voice chats and discord servers. Usually there are lots of smaller servers for specific games with regulars, try and join some and try the voice chats.

You got cucked out of your own discord server? Just do what jannies do and ban him when he hurts your feelings.

Idk but I'm quitting videogames for at least a couple of months. I don't get any sort of satisfaction playing them anymore and I need real friends.
