The title given to this genre of games is pretty silly but I'm glad we got a small rising of games centred around being social and having fun with others.
>>742215576>zoomers need a game handholding them to be social
>>742215576I like 'em.
I just want one that has real longevity. Actual progression is needed in these games, I'm tired of them all being run based 30 - 60 minute gameplay loops.
>>742215778Group activities are the essence of socializationMen used to bond by hunting together
>>742215898I wonder if they're built around friend groups who can only meet for that long every few weeks. Or more likely they're made for streamers.
>>742215778>Man throws dynamite in his own glass house
>>742215576there used to be another word for friendslop games. I think it was "multiplayer"
>>742215898If the gameplay is fun enough no progression is neededLook at L4D2, TF2 or proper roguelikes, those dont need progression and they are fine.Some entertaining enough gameplay and some friends to talk to is all you need.

>>742223397I have to leave in 20 minutes so the lobby will happen around that time because of course
>>742215898There are plenty of games like that already.co-op RPGs like BG3 or Barotrauma, sandbox RPGs like Minecraft Terraria or Vintage Story, factory games like Factorio and Satisfactory, etc.The short matches lend themselves to multiplayer much better. You are scheduling a persistent ongoing game with the same people, it is natural to have conflicts where some might not be available every session. This leaves you in an awkward spot where the game must be able to continue without leaving people too far behind.The shorter match formula just flattens things and lets people enjoy the gameplay. As a bonus it is much easier to make.Then again games like lethal company and repo DO have progression as you get more and more money and tools to work with, so if you are actually good at the game you will find yourself getting stronger, making this is an odd nitpick anyway.

They're meant for normies. Normalfags only play games now as a social outlet. If it's single player it's useless to them
>>742225464It's that one comic book villain
>>742215898>>742216127>I wonder if they're built around friend groups who can only meet for that long every few weeksIts exactly this. Once you hit your 30s it takes 2 weeks of planning to get a friend online for an hour or two. So shit like Phasmo, Lethal Company or Meccha Chameleon are perfect to shoot the shit while catching up on voice chat. MMOs used to fill this void for the 30-50 year old crowd but not everyone still has time to sink 2-20h a week into them anymore plus subscription fee. FPS games are mostly shit and its hard to get ppl to reinstall shit like TF2.
>>742215576it's surprising how none of them has reached the heights of lethal company, the one that started this trend in the first place

>>742225804is it? how many deckbuilding roguelikes have approached slay the spirehow many sidescroller mmorpgs have approached mapleshitory?etc
>>742226538On a technical level those games have absolutely been surpassed many times.They remain the most popular because they kicked off the trend, not because they are the best.
>>742225804eh Phasmo 'started it' but its development/updates have been slow and completely missing the mark. Most people played it on one of its early access builds that was buggy and more fun to play than the current game which is bloated and wasted the last 3 years redesigning the maps instead of fixing whats actually wrong with the game. Lethal Company got more popular because it balanced scary and fun, its fun to play singleplayer as well as multiplayer, its got an active modding community and the dev is actually working on it (now that he's finished his other game). Also procedurally generated maps helps Lethal Company out a lot. Phasmo runs out of steam about 200 hours in once you memorize all the ghost behaviours and the optimal way to play each map.
>>742215576>be teenager in the 90s or early 2000s>hang out with friends in the real world going to real places>have sex with your gf you met through your group of friends because there are no dating apps>be zoomer>login to discord where you get groomed by 30yo trannies>forced to play friendlsop until 2AM with your discord buddies pretending to have fun>have no gf because dating is a nightmare thanks social media and dating apps>you don't even care because your balls attrophied from all the microplastics and vaxx boosters
>>742227876The oldest zoomers ARE the 30yos on discord.Also why are you so bitter about playing games with your friends? You would not have had a gf or a girl in your circle at any point in time, so don't pretend like you wouldn't be a complete fuckup if you had only been born in your 'correct' time.
