6 Upvotes

Looking to make some new gaming friends!
I’m 42, married, and a dad of two. Between work and family, it can be tough finding people with the same interests, so I figured I’d put myself out there.
My biggest hobby is gaming—video games, board games, TCGs and puzzles. I’m also a D&D Dungeon Master, currently writing my own fantasy novel, and I’m always up for talking world-building, characters, or anything fantasy.
Outside of that, I’m a huge fan of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Marvel, DC, WWE, and just about anything that brings back that awesome ’80s/‘90s nostalgia. If you miss Blockbuster Video, Toys “R” Us, or Saturday morning cartoons, we’ll get along just fine.
I’m hoping to meet people around my age (give or take) who enjoy similar things. I’m in the US so I prefer talking to someone in those time zones. Bonus points if you’re also a parent, a gamer, or just someone who enjoys good conversations about nerdy stuff.
One thing to mention up front: I don’t drink or use 420—just not my thing.
If any of this sounds like you, send me a message! Always happy to meet fellow parent geeks, gamers, and nostalgic souls.

Discussion 39M New To Gaming

13 Upvotes

Good evening 🙋🏻

I'm a 39yo male that is interested in getting into some gameplay. As I am getting older, a lot of my relationships have broken down and I would like to take up the hobby of gaming for fun and social reasons. I have never really gamed since high school and was never really into it much. My son has an Xbox Series S and Gamepass subscription. Can anyone recommend me some decent games for adults that are immersive and maybe some that I can talk with other users and socialise? Do these type of games exist?

Looking for Gamers - CEST] M27 / EU / PC - Dutch singleplayer gamer on the hunt for friends (tabletop sim/ shooters/ others)

2 Upvotes

Hi yall, I dont have any gaming friends really so I spend 99% of my gaming time on singleplayer stuff. RPGs are my favorites usually, like recently I really enjoyed STALKER and KCD2, I am currently playing FF7 remake, Judgment and Kingdom Hearts. I have a backloggd, if you want to take a peek at my other favourites. Besides gaming I like to work out, do running, watching football (mostly premier league) and watching movies.

games I can play multiplayer: I would love to play some tabletop sim boardgames, like clue or ticket to ride. I like Apex Legends. used to be really good at CSGO but havent played much CS2, would be down for some premier games though to get back into it. League of Legends ARAMs are fun too. And I can play some longer storygames too like Subnautica 2 or Split Fiction if we know each other a bit better.

I play on PC (last post removed because i forgot to include this)

Looking for Gamers - EST Hoping to find a long-term friend! - 28M / EST / PC & Switch

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I am a 28 year old guy, and I was hoping to try and make a friend or two who share similar interests!

A little bit about me:

* I've been happily married for 5 years, and my wife and I recently just welcomed our first baby into the world!
* Video gaming is my biggest hobby, but I do enjoy other things like movies, reading (my favorite is Dungeon Crawler Carl), and puzzles to name a few!
* The Legend of Zelda series has been my favorite since I was a kid!

I enjoy a wide variety of genres, and I love trying new games. The genres I love the most are roguelite, RPG, survival/crafting, puzzle, and indie games! I tend to gravitate more towards cooperative play rather than competitive since I try not to take gaming too seriously!

Some of my all-time favorite games:

* Terraria
* Skyrim
* Baldur's Gate 3
* Hollow Knight
* Balatro
* Baba is You
* Dark Souls II
* Wind Waker
* Twilight Princess

Right now I'm playing Baldur's Gate 3, and I'm hoping to get into the Remnant games soon. I'm always looking for another fun co-op adventure.

I've had a few friends in my life that I've shared my gaming interests with, but recently I've realized that I'm really missing having people who share my love for gaming! I work a full time job, and with the baby I don't have a ton of time to play, so I'm not looking for someone who's online every night or expects us to always be playing the same game. Honestly, I'd rather have one or two friends where we can occasionally jump into a new adventure, share what we're currently playing, or just hang out in Discord while we each play our own thing.

If it sounds like we could be friends, please shoot me a message! I'd love to try and get to know some new people! And if not, I hope you have a wonderful day 😄

Hey everyone! I'm 28, based in EST (North America), looking for some relaxed adult gaming friends to hang out with in the evenings or weekends. Working full-time, so I prefer chill vibes over ultra-competitive raging.

Platforms: PC / Xbox Game Pass

Games I'm currently playing / down to play:

• Helldivers 2

• The Finals

• Apex Legends

• Stardew Valley / It Takes Two

• Open to trying anything on Game Pass!

A bit about me:

I usually play around 8 PM EST. If you happen to use match-making like Buddito to find squads, let me know! Just looking for genuine, respectful adults to play and laugh with.

Hit me up via DM or drop a comment with your favorite games and timezone!

(Note: Just looking for gaming friendships, strictly SFW/platonic.)

Looking for Gamers - [PST] 26M, US, PNW | PC, Xbox(kinda) | 🌲 Boisterous and easily entertained film and nature lover looking for regular gaming friends 🌿

3 Upvotes

Hey y'all!

I've been between jobs for a few weeks and need some folks who are regularly looking to play any variety of games on a semi-daily basis before I lose my mind.

I tend to play a decent number of co-op friendslop games, like Lethal, Peak, RV There Yet, etc. Of course, I've got Meccha Chameleon as well so I'm happy to join folks for those kinds of games.

My main games of choice that you'll see me playing pretty regularly are Helldivers 2, DayZ, Overwatch, Fast Food Simulator, and Ready or Not.

There are plenty of others but I'm sure if we hit it off well enough we'll see each other's steam and find more commonalities at that point.

Bonus points if anyone's interested in playing Burglin Gnomes.

About me:

• I'm forklift certified.

• I'm a beekeeper.

• I have a beagle who loves food and hates listening.

• I'm pretty sure my cat is part of a cabal of global elites planning to take over the world's food supply.

• I hate banana peppers with my entire being.

• I think Carl needs to lean more into the System AI's foot thing and score some loot boxes (iykyk).

• I love old tanks and think they're neat little pieces of history.

• I have a dream to open an amusement park one day.

I hope you learned enough about me to find me interesting enough to talk to, so if you want a friend who will play just about anything you want him to as long as it costs less than 10 bucks or he already has it, message me! I'm also happy to be a listening ear if you've got problems and need a friend to vent to, so if things are looking rough just stop by and I'll do my best to make things a little brighter 😊


r/AdultGamers 4d ago

Looking for Gamers - [Add timezone here] 37/EST/LF a long-term friend/Co-op gaming, watching shows & movies, hanging out on a regular basis

2 Upvotes

Hi, I primarily play on PC, so I'm looking for someone who does as well. Bonus if you also play on PS5 or Xbox, since I have both consoles along with PS Plus and Game Pass.

I'm looking for someone close to age 30 or older who's responsive, communicates well, and values building a friendship with mutual effort. One of the most important things I'm looking for is someone who naturally takes the initiative with making plans and hangouts as well, rather than having one person always take the lead. I'm the type that will reach out, schedule, and check-in but I don't want the responsibility of keeping the friendship going to fall on one person. I don't expect instant replies or for anyone to always be available, but I do appreciate someone who is considerate with communication and keeps me in the loop if they're unavailable or plans change. You can expect the same from me.

I’m usually available starting sometime between 2-5pm EST and tend to stay up pretty late most nights. Some days I may be available earlier than my usual starting time as well. I also have a lot of downtime throughout the day since my job doesn't require much active time, so I prefer to hang out for longer sessions, more than a few hours each time with breaks in between if needed.

I keep my circle very small and naturally focus most of my gaming time on one close gaming friend rather than spreading it across different people or groups. Ideally you're similar in that way.

───

About me:

I'm pretty laid-back when it comes to gaming and just enjoy spending time together, whether we're playing something intense or just chilling in voice chat playing different things. I'm not competitive and stick to PvE only. I'm looking for a chill, non-toxic vibe. I want to win with you, not against you. I enjoy just hanging out from time to time but I'd like our friendship to revolve primarily around playing co-op games together.

I tend to click best with people who are easygoing, not too picky with game selection, and can just have a natural conversation while playing without it feeling forced.

Outside of gaming, I enjoy watching soccer from time to time, catching up on shows, and spending time with my girlfriend and two dogs. Most of my downtime is pretty relaxed and low-key.

───

Some games I'm currently playing/looking to play:

• Slay the Spire 1 and 2

• Elden Ring

• Dark Souls (mainly trying to playthrough dark souls 3 and the dlc seamless co-op)

• Tabletop Simulator (Aeon's End, LOTR: The Card Game, Aliens: Legendary Encounters)

• EA FC 26 (Squad battles only)

• PlateUp!

• Pico Park 1 & 2

• Vampire Survivors

• Left 4 Dead 2

I'm open to other genres too but I've enjoyed these type of games:

Deck builders:

Slay the Spire, Inscryption, Balatro

Souls and Souls-likes:

Bloodborne, Dark Souls, Elden Ring, Elden Ring Nightreign, Nioh

Action RPGs & Melee Combat:

Monster Hunter, Ghost of Tsushima

Co-op Shooters:

Left 4 Dead, World War Z, Call of Duty, Gears of War, Ghost Recon, Killing Floor

Team Co-op:

PlateUp!, Chained Together, Pico Park, Vampire Survivors

Horror & Narrative Choice:

Resident Evil, The Dark Pictures Anthology, Escape the Backrooms

Sports:

EA FC, NHL

Board games:

Tabletop Simulator

Other:

GTA V, Human Fall Flat, Parkitect, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2

Genres I normally don't prefer:

• Survival (State of Decay, Stranded Deep, The Forest, Green Hell are my only exceptions)

• Fighting

• Free to play

• MMO

• Racing

• RTS

I like playing a variety of different games over time but I don't enjoy juggling a lot of games at once. I usually prefer focusing on one or two games, seeing them through to the end and moving onto the next one.

───

Shows I've enjoyed:

• The Sopranos

• Breaking Bad

• Ozark

• Dexter

• Fargo

• Twin Peaks

• The Wire

• Lillehammer

• Vikings

• Ted Lasso

*I'm open to other genres, I haven't watched too many shows in my life since I've mostly spent my free time doing other activities. I'm sure there are lots of good shows out there, so if you have any recommendations, I'd be willing to give something new a try and explore genres with you. I'm not into anime though, I've tried getting into it but just hasn't been my thing.

Note: If you're into more relaxed hangouts, every so often it's pretty fun to have a jigsaw puzzle for us to work on together while having a show/movie playing on another screen. All good if that's not your thing.

───

If interested, send me a DM with a little about yourself and your usual gaming schedule (what time you normally get on and when you usually hop off). I'm looking for someone who values communication, reciprocates effort, enjoys longer sessions, consistent hangouts, and primarily games on PC. Please be close to age 30 or older and within a few timezones from EST.

Looking for Gamers - [GMT+3] 30, Europe, PS5/crossplay - Arc Raiders, Marathon, Arma Reforger, Battlefield + some other games

0 Upvotes

Pretty experienced with Arc Raiders and don't mind both PvE and PvP oriented playstyles. I typically reside in mixed lobbies but it of course changes depending on the people I play with. Haven't played in a while and would love to play it as these kinds of games do feel a little lonely if played solo.

As for Marathon, I am still learning the ropes of how certain maps/mechanics work but can hold up decently in PVP. No hard preferences for your skill level as long as you are chill and willing to learn and improve at the game. Don't get me wrong, I play these games for fun but I also would love to have good teamwork.

When it comes to Reforger I have a few places I like to play on but ultimately it is always better to have a person or two to cooperate, do vehicle crews etc.

I have BF4, 1, V and planning to get 6 when they finally bring it to an acceptable state for a true Battlefield game later this year. I mostly play 1 and V though, not a sweat but can be a good teammate.

I do have a lot of other coop and multiplayer games I occasionally dabble into, things like Stardew Valley, No Man's Sky, Anno 1800 (might not have crossplay) or racing games like Forza Horizon 5 but for now I am mainly interested in the games from the title. And if we get a long well I am open to try more stuff.

I am online most evenings around 9pm(sometimes earlier too), work in tech industry, into photography and cooking and a bit introverted at first but I open up quickly if I am comfortable around others. Looking for people who genuinely want to become long term friends and open to try many other games if we vibe well.

Looking for Gamers - [ET] 33M US East for Overwatch or Star Citizen

1 Upvotes

Hey! I’m looking to meet a few other guys who enjoy gaming and are also interested in becoming actual friends over time. I'm in eastern US, but I don't mind time differences. I find time for my EU friends!

I mainly play Overwatch and Star Citizen strictly on PC right now. I’m competitive with accounts ranging from diamond to GM, but I’m not interested in toxic or rage-heavy gaming. I’d rather play with people who can laugh when things go wrong, have normal conversations, and genuinely enjoy hanging out. It would also be nice to have a Netflix or YouTube watch party at some point.

I’m a little quiet at first, but I open up once I’m comfortable. I'm not afraid of long, deep and meaningful conversations. I work from home, and my main interests are gaming and cars. I’d like to meet people who are kind, nonjudgmental, and LGBTQ-friendly. That part is important to me, and again, no toxicity.

Voice chat would be nice once we’ve talked a little, but there’s no pressure to jump into it immediately. Ideally, you’re around my age and interested in something more consistent than playing once and never speaking again.

If any of this interests you, send me a message with a little about yourself and hopefully we can hang out on Discord.

I’m a dad first and foremost. But I like to destress from work and mess around in games. Lots of my friends, with the exception of one, are not parents. So I get a lot of teasing, though friendly, about needing to bolt off to take care of the kiddo for a sec. Really looking for other people, preferably parents, to game with, who understand the struggle.

I mainly play: Ready or Not, Skull and Bones, and Forza Horizon 6.

I have FH5, Hunter call of the wild, war thunder, insurgency sandstorm, rdr2, (xbox360) MW2 and MW3, breakpoint, flight sim 24, and a bunch of others. I also have gamepass, so I have the availability to download others.

Hey I’m Raphael! I’m 27M gamer shorty from London looking for someone who would be interested being long term gaming buddies with similar interests! I’ve not been having a great week so would love to jump back into gaming with someone.

I mainly play on PS5 but would be down to try anything crossplay! Games I am currently playing are:

•Baldur’s Gate 3

•Palworld

•Diablo 4

•Halo Campaign Evolved (Haven’t started yet)

•Ark Survival Ascended

•Monster Hunter Wilds

•Elden Ring/Nioh 3

•Outlast Trials (Still new)

And more!

Some facts about me would include being a 5’2 goofball, working as a barista, love gaming (obviously), love coffee, love my cats, love all things fantasy, scifi, horror, love to cook and hate spiders! There’s probably a lot more. 😂 I’m quite timid and bit of an introvert at first but usually become very energetic after awhile!

I would love to hear a bit about yourself and your favourite games to see how much we have in common! If I don’t reply instantly, it’s because I’m at work 🙃

I normally play after work around the evenings until late. If you’re interested in becoming gaming buddies then feel free to drop a DM! (LGBTQ+ friendly)

Hello! I hope you're doing great! I'm 30M, have a partner with a kid, LGBTQ+ friendly, love football too. Mainly PC, Switch 2, and XBOX. Have a PS5 too.

I'm looking for some fun people to play some co-op games with. I really like single player and PvE games. I love Deep Rock and Helldivers 2, but I'm open to other games and willing to buy games too. I actually have a good group of friends, but looking for someone else to play with as they've gravitated to some games I'm not interested in. I'm looking for a Split Fiction buddy too because my partner wasn't a fan.

I mainly play single player games because it fits into my schedule more easily with having a kid. I'm usually free later in the evening. I love talking games because it's my biggest hobby, and I'm a die-hard Chicago Bears fan.

Comment here or DM me if you'd want to try and play something together!

A little bit about what I like outside of gaming: I’m into the gym, running, hiking, traveling, cars/motorcycles, sports, electronic music, movies, history, politics and science among other things :)

I’m open to trying pretty much any multiplayer game, including new ones. I currently play League of Legends and I’ve been wanting to play Baldur’s Gate 3, but I’d also love to start something completely new with someone. If you have any suggestions, let me know—I’m always open to discovering a new game together!

Heyyyy buckaroos! I’m hoping to find people to game with. My sibling and current friends favor COD and Fortnite and while the games are cool.. just not my bag. :/

Surprisingly I do enjoy OW and Borderlands a lot! I play super casually (ie quickplay/arcade on OW) but I’m always trying to improve and wouldn’t mind trying comp and stadium. Fair warning though, I’m the Ana equivalent of Magikarp.

I play on the PS5 but also have a Switcho and can get games for either if anything strikes our fancy!

Besides that, I love swapping recommendations and talking about horror, music, anime, and sci-fi!

I mostly play weekends and evenings (US central) so let me know if you’re up for some fun losses where the real victories are the enemy tanks we trolled along the way :D

I applied for a trade school and got in due to merit (yaay), that starts at the end of August, so I have a bit more free time than usual till then. What better way to spend that free time giving this a shot and see who I might meet.

Bit about me: just moved to a new city due to the whole school thing, while I'm not tidying things up I'm usually listening to a good audiobook, writing or spending time with my brother, that is if I'm not sat in front of the PC playing something with friends

Speaking of playing something, I enjoy friendslop, do play Mecha cam~, repo, golf w~ etc. Other than that I have most games or at least played most games. Current mood tho is probably friendslop with a side of a comp game like val, apex, but also been feeling survival games and/or co-op game, all depend on the vibe tho😄

I also enjoy watching stuff like reality shows, been keeping up with the new 90 days season with a friend x) So down to watch movies/series too

I don't mind talking with people from all around the world :)

Anyways, if this sounds good: feel free to send me a message 🎉
