I’ve got a small group at the moment so we tend to stick to Valheim. Very little progress each time. Usually a lot of catching up on talk and building a slightly bigger building.
Will throw in a multiplayer humble game every now and then to switch things up.
Deep Rock Galactic is in heavy rotation with my group. Barotrauma too if we have the time and at least 4 people.
Bro, Viscera Cleanup. It's like space janitors talking while cleaning up the remnants of an alien infestation.
Table Top Simulator is great for group fun.
I've got a couple groups of friends that my wife and I play Jackbox with over discord, it's almost as good as being in the same room!
A mixture of Dead by Daylight, Deep Rock Galactic, Valheim and V Rising. Depends who and how many of the group are online and what kind of mood we're all in!
Damn, I wish my friends liked good games too.
Depends on the group.
I love Titanfall 2, I've yet to find a game like it. There's so much going on and I feel that not being a twitch shooter means I can keep up more easily with the young-uns.
Criminally underplayed game.
TF2 got freaking murdered. Me and friends keep going back to it again and again. I'm so happy northstar exists now, it's too bad it can't do anything for console players.
Also, come say hi at !titanfall@sopuli.xyz
we play Dead by Daylight mostly. Sometimes we do fortnite, and have an unironically good time
Over the last few years it's been Final Fantasy XIV, Vermintide 2, Valheim and some Generation Zero.
Hoping to get to Deep Rock Galactic and Sea of Thieves some time.
Drg is a great one, highly reccomend.
Seconded!
I have been gaming with the same group of friends for the last ten years. We're three people busy with real-life commitments, live on different sides of the country, so we try to play games where they act as a social arena as well. The conversations we have are more important than the game itself.
We've been gaming Valheim, Raft, The Forest and Risk of Rain 2 for the past years. We've also played some Elden Ring and Hunt: Showdown, but neither works as well as the beforementioned.
On that note, can anyone reccomend games like the ones above? Been eyeing Grounded...
We have like a solid list that goes back a few years
But we just added some new ones:
Bro, dawn of war is what pushed me to build my first powerful gaming PC back in, like, 2008ish
Y’all have friends who will play multiplayer games with you?
… or who will deign to sit on Discord? 🥲
It hurts when you speak to my soul like this 🥺
Rocket League.
Almost nothing.
We’ve all such different tastes, but the last thing we played was Forest 2 and Grim Dawn.
Here's some of my friend group's favorites with old and new games mixed in, we go all over the place!
RTS
FPS
TPS
Strategy
VR
2D Mayhem
The following three games are meant for local / couch gameplay, but using steam remote play or parsec works.
I hope someone finds something new in this list, or perhaps some good memories.
Valorant, Deep rock galactic, Sea of Thieves, and soon Titanfall 2
No1 is probably Valheim, but also WarThunder, Hunt: Showdown, and GTFO. But I wish it was Eve Online 😅
We are very competitive gamers, so the list is:
When there are more players:
Once in a while farming simulator 22
A couple of friends and I will play Hunt: Showdown pretty frequently.
Sometimes Deep Rock Galactic or Warframe as well.
Most of my friends aren’t real ‘gamers’, but they’ll enjoy playing things like Geoguessr and scriblio, so we still get to play games.
Final Fantasy XIV, Terraria, GTFO, Killing Floor 2, Guilty Gear Strive/Xrd Rev 2, 7 Days to Die, Minecraft, and recently some of us have been playing MegaMan Battle Network VS matches. What is popular changes quite often
Escape from Tarkov with a few buddies, counterstrike with another group.
Both groups I sometimes play a variety of other stuff with but these two are the main stays
I'm a big Tabletop Simulator / Tabletop Playground guy myself, and it tends to be the easiest way to get a bunch of real-life friends together when we can't actually be together. I tend to like longer form slower paced games that can be played passively, like 4X games; it's just a more fun environment when you just want to chill and chat/play.
For fun competitive games where chatting is secondary to the competitive experience, probably Age of Empires 2!
I'm big into splatoon, and some of friends are varying degrees of also into it, from "as invested as me" to "will play it but will make a good-natured fuss about it". It's the most fun shooter I've ever played, despite its terrible jankiness sometimes.
We also play a lot of boardgames on tabletop sim, if that counts.
Rocket League, mostly. I play casual matches with my peeps, but my son and I play competitive together. We’ve won some tournaments, even. We also play Fortnite.
I wish I had friends who play what I play. I'd love to get back into Guild Wars 2, but I just never have a group to play with!
And, my friends are never playing when I play, but back in College, my friends and I would play CSGO, Minecraft, Oldschool Runescape, and a few other games.
Oh man, please hit me up if you'd like to jump into GW2. One of my favourite things in any game is just adventuring across the land, doing quests, uncovering and discussing characters and lore, slowly improving out items together without worrying about "trading efficiently", taking on little challenges like Dungeons or bosses, etc.
I've also gotten into Raiding lately with other first timers. We literally just go in without reading any guides, no roles assigned, and just try to work out how to get past each encounter/boss together.
I might when I get my PC set back up in July. I'm about to get a Series X.
No rush dude, enjoy your Series X!
I have two groups, one that plays Overwatch. And another that tends to play coop survival games. Valheim, 7dtd, V Rising, etc
For in person, we do a lot of Jackbox.
When online, SCP Secret labs has been a favorite. Every few weeks someone will usually want to play and we'll do a few rounds.
We met via tabletop RPGs and that's what we still do every two weeks but if we're hanging on Discord it's mainly Overwatch but also Wildermyth and Mech Warrior.
My group plays Dota 2 and Arma 3, both poorly.
Fortnite. It's free!
i typically play Destiny 1 and 2 as well as Battlefront 2 with my friend group. sometimes we quad team on minecraft bedwars. and even duel each other sometimes
Brawlhalla, hands down. A Free-to-play platform-fighting game that is surprisingly technical with its movement and combos, so it can lead to very interesting and epic moments.
It has a huge roster but you need to pay in-game currency to access most characters, which you gain very quickly by just playing the game, so its a non issue.
We usually go for the cheapest and dummest crap we find, with most potential.
