Have you made friends that you still play vidya with to this day? If not, are you just an unlovable faggot or have all your friends gone off to live monotonous normie lives? Have you made any friends from here, or do you just chitchat with randoms you meet in MMOs, FPS games, or some shit like VRChat?
I'm too shy to make friends online
oh a "friend" thread with an anime girl as the opi get it *wink wink*
>>731118847anime websitetroons just latch onto and poison anything that's popular and/or cute
>>731117991Still an unlovable faggot. I've thought about going back to multiplayer slop like shooters, Arc Raiders or whatever the cool kids play these days, but I don't think I have the patience for those anymore.
>>731117991Welcome moon and starCome to me throughFire and war
>>731119158They're all garbage and have been garbage for well over a decadeOver time, everyone, zoomers included, eventually will get fed up and go back to TF2, Minecraft, and modded Skyrim until another clone gets shilled and the cycle will keep repeating
my bestest friend I have ever meet and I play vidya irl every weekend or so. We get mcdonalds chicken nuggets, pocky sticks, mtn dew. It rocks! He was my trainer at my new job and he broke the ice by talking about death stranding and norm macdonald. I told him kojima sux and we got into a debate about games. He is more into the cinematic games like death stranding and god of war 4 while I like older games like half life and mario 64. But we play sonic adventure, metal gear rising, tony hawks underground and tons of other games. Shit is so awesome bros
I haven't had a friend since I was 13
>>731121126What vidyas are you into anon?
>>731121325I'm not going down this path again
>>731121348I used to be a total recluse 'til I met someone really cool who I shared interests with, it's extremely rare but if you want to stave off loneliness you've gotta grow some balls and cast your line every now and again
>>731121517that's okay, it's better for everyone this way
>>731120691Hell yeah you guys should kiss platonically
>>731121592>Troon out, ruin your body/mind with drugs and kill yourself>Suffer some embarrassment but learn from your mistakes and grow as a personPick option two anon, I've seen what the first looks like and it's very ugly
>>731118907So like OP who's posting a retarded xitter meme most likely made by a troon?
>>731121915Troons also breathe air so you should probably just kill yourself now
>tfw trannies have been the only people to befriend me onlineIts not fair
>>731122103LMAO look at this trannyTrying to DEFEND trannies sharing his hobbyHoly shit what a troon, gotta be
>>731122103Go back to xitter tranny.
do trannies not deserve friends and companionship?
@731122305>so mad this seething looney troon replied twice
>>731122161>trannies avoid mefeels good, man.
>>731117991No one here lives in Canada so I can’t make real friends on /v/.
>>731122103Lol you dumb dumb poop brains retard
>>731122387>xitter tourist is so retarded he thinks multiple people can't ridicule himYour xitter filename wasn't bad enough, but defending trannies is just an icing on the cake.
>>731122430I am good friends with a dutchman and im american, so that sounds like a skill issue.
>>731117991I have friends who are also into video games, comics, animation, film, etcWe almost never talk about those, we mostly just talk about regular everyday life
>>731122430Stuck in the syrup?
>>731122404how can I learn your power?
>>731122430I do though
>>731122550My steam profile is full of loli shit, so maybe that's why.
>>731122497You're not fooling anyone SEA poonigger, keep samefagging though I enjoy watching you squirm
>>731122660Go back to xitter tranny.
>>731122921Go back to making dungbricks Rajneesh.
>>731122991That's what your ilk does tourist, go back.
>>731117991I have gaming friends, but it’s only a matter of time before we stop interacting. I’m just not very good at keeping conversations going (｡︵｡)
Steam friends
>>731117991I have modding friends and only chat with randoms about gaming opinions. I never voice-chat or show my face or my real name to my "friends". I had IRL friends until I was 20 years old and just 1 friend from a computer science school who I barely keep in touch with.
>>731117991Made one of my best friends here, actually. We talk regularly and have been from at least 2018. Been wanting to make another friend here too, maybe something more than that admittedly, but this site has changed a lot since then. Feels like less people use it and it feels like the ones that do use it are less likely to chat you up unless you always reach out to them every time which is a shame.>>731121517It's true, you can't make friends if you don't put yourself out there. What vidya do you play, anon? >>731126768I always found people on steam were more fickle and less likely to have chill conversations for more than a day or so. I hate to say it, but adding an anon to talk on discord has always been more successful for general and gaming conversation.
>>731129282>What vidya do you play, anon?100%'d Binding of Isaac so I'm now currently replaying Fallout NV as I never did the DLCs and the show, as mid as it is, motivated me to go through it again. Got somewhat into Blue Archive a year ago and it's been surprisingly decent, and I used to think all gacha games were pure dogshit after trying out Genshin and Battlecats. My friends haven't been as active as they used to be due to normie life stuff so I've been posting here a bit more lately, though similar to what you said, people have become increasingly schizo in the past six or so years so it's hard to make connections.
>>731129753Oh nice, another Dead God chad! I'm not the biggest roguelite guy but I've always really enjoyed Isaac. New Vegas's DLCs are overall...fun. I personally like Honest Hearts the most but I think the others are liked more overall, except maybe Dead Money. You ever played Fallout 1? If you haven't, it's not nearly as dated as you might consider and is worth a playthrough. The atmosphere alone is fantastic. >Blue ArchiveGenuinely, what do you do in that game? I've never seen gameplay in it. So far the only gacha I've considered getting into is the Wizardry one but I get this feeling that I won't enjoy it as much as I do the older stuff like 1-5 or the Gaiden games. >My friends haven't been as active as they used to be due to normie life stuff so I've been posting here a bit more lately, though similar to what you said, people have become increasingly schizo in the past six or so years so it's hard to make connections.Yeah, this part always sucks..That's why it's nice to have a few different friends. I'd like to have more because of that. I've tried on places outside of /v/ but there's always this weird barrier up in online circles. Weirdly I find the prospect of making friends irl to sound easier but finding myself in a situation where it'll happen sounds less likely.
>>731117991I have three groups of friends, one which I have known for over +10 years, and 2 of them I've known for +20 years. All three groups are of people whom I've made incredibly close bonds to and would give me or anyone else within said group the clothes off of their backs to whomever was in need (and I was needy when a personal disaster took nearly everything I have ever owned from me, and all three helped in every single way they could, and I've returned the favor when catastrophe has hit anyone else in those groups).All three of these groups have given their time, condolences, personal support, and money to each and everyone else within at one time or another. To call them simply 'friends' would be an understatement. As far as games go, we all play games together when ones of us shares the same game and we all actively pester each other whenever a game is being played like kids knocking on each others door to come outside and play. We'll play Helldivers 1 or 2 (mostly 2), Risk of Rain 1 or 2, Monster Hunter, Warframe, Borderlands, Battlefield, REPO, Trackmania, Terraria, Minecraft, Palworld, it's a smorgasbord from every genre with people from every walk of life and flavor of life choices.I, personally, would like to think that if I didn't have any of them, I'd have probably an hero'd at some point or another, and each and every one of them is dearly precious to me. Just as I am to them.
>>731122991>wahago back to heyuri
>>731117991>lucked out and made all my childhood vidya friends through siblings or pure osmosis>never actually developed any social skills>they all moved away/got married>dont know how too make new friends>too much of an avoidant autistic retard to make internet friends >too many years in isolation and basically terrified of people now
>>731117991Sometimes I play old fighting games with a zoomer from Kyrgyzstan. Feels good, he never asks too much questions and just wants to play with someone of similar skill.
>>731117991>If not, are you just an unlovable faggot or have all your friends gone off to live monotonous normie lives? A bit of both. I have plenty of friends, but they lead busy lives and have other things to do. The rare time they do want to play vidya it always is the same minecraft or terraria server that we grow bored of in two days and then quit.I can't be assed to even start one anymore. In the past when I still had a mostly normalfag social>Have you made any friends from here, or do you just chitchat with randoms you meet in MMOs, FPS games, or some shit like VRChat?I made some friends in MMOs in the past, but most quit years ago and so did I. I have seen many guilds slowly die and have seen a lot of "last online: 2 years ago" and then there is the MMOs themselves turning to shit. Just look at the absolute state of the genre.
>>731130010I played Flash Isaac for a bit way back in the day, and then put like 80 hours into Rebirth before dropping it for several years and then getting completely hooked on it throughout 2025. Insanely fun game when it finally clicks with you, I wish more ppl gave it a chance.>You ever played Fallout 1?For about an hour or two then stopped, which I hate myself for but I just can't get into it.>Genuinely, what do you do in that game?It's 80% visual novel, 10% messing with your cafe, and 10% min-maxing which students are best suited towards whatever raid event is currently on-going. For most story missions you can just auto-battle it out but there is some challenge. I'm mostly in it for the cute girls and the game is pretty generous with resources/pulls.>I've tried on places outside of /v/ but there's always this weird barrier up in online circles.Most people tend to have no more than 7 or so people they keep really close so it's understandable, every community is like its own little tribe. Of course, most friendships don't last forever so I've learned to reach out every now and again because some of my best friends were people I met by pure chance. In some instances you may get shot down pretty hard but eh, just live and learn.
>>731131072*In the past when I still had a mostly normalfag social life I already was a grumpy asshole who rarely could be bothered to play with other people
>>731117991The only online games I play nowadays are Tf2, Luanti and TeeWorlds. And most people in there aren't really interested in making friends (and I am too shy to try to strike a conversation).Making friends is hard...
>>731117991I'm an unlovable elitistI could play monster hunter wilds and league of legends with them but I'd rather play Ninja gaiden alone
bump
>>731117991i only play single player games
>>731130694Just be urself bro
>>731117991I've made exactly one good friend on this website from /vm/. I don't get to play vidja much with him anymore, but he's still a cool dude and i still check in on him frequently.outside of that interactions in multiplayer games feel barren no matter how much i try to make it not so. So i've given up on that; maybe for the better since 90% of people online seem unhinged these days.my only regret is i never found a fellow risk of rain autist to play the games with.
>>731117991I did but then the last few years nobody really wants to game more than maybe once a week despite nobody in our group having any major life changes like marriage or moving or anything like that and so I fucking hate them
>>731117991I have been explicitly called boring in the only MMORPG I really played like 5 years ago. I’m really brusque and unlikable, stuck in a place where I want people to like me but I don’t really like anyone because unrequited love beats you down after a while and you realize you’re always the one that has to initiate so fuck it
>>731122430I’m American and have had friends from basically every continent, yet I’ve never met a Canadian. It’s unironically a you problem, you Canadians are probably just a bunch of stuck up cunts and you don’t even realize it
>>731133189I have Canadian friends (one of which I've met irl) and yeah they're pretty much are all just puritan cunts
>>731122498Holy shit you met the Flying Dutchman?
>>731117991I have made friends while playing different MMOs but I end up ghosting them whenever I quit.
>>731133457its for the best anywaymmo friends are just drinking buddiesthere is potential to become actual friends but you probably shouldn't
>>731117991i have one friend from early elementary and one from college. play vidya with both weekly.i can't do online stuff with discord or a voice call. too many shit experiences in those situations, i only like to play vidya together in person even if it's still playing online with 2 PCs
>>731133294i'm canadian and anytime i make an off-color joke or comment, the handful of guys i sometimes play online with will audibly make noises of disapproval at it and simply just stop the conversation. sometimes my IRL also canadian friend will chuckle at first and then stop once he hears those 'hmmm' noises from them.they're all from the southern american states. christ i even had a 'kate hikes' profile in a game me and my IRL friend were playing. one of the online guys asked him to stream gameplay for him, and then instantly commented on my name, saying he's not really comfortable with it. I instantly told him "it wasn't for you at all" and he just left the chat with a big sigh.i really fucking hate people in general so don't consider this some kind of shitting on americans specifically, please. just know that sometimes the brash canadians are being coerced into silence by your countrymen
>>731134420AYO THIS GUY IS SHITTING ON AMERICANS GET HIS ASS
>>731134420and the worst part is hearing one of them slip into dark humor only to be audibly pulled back into the plantation immediately. one of them said something about deporting NPCs that were bothering us and another one straight up said "don't do that" in such a way that clarification was needed whether he was talking to the person speaking or if he was scolding his child IRL. he was talking about the deportation joke and reiterated, 'yeah, don't do that' in the same 'i know better than you and you need to quit it' tone, which was silently accepted.two americans living in georgia acting like lefty wrongthink officers to each other.
>>731134640n-noooooo
>>731134420>>731134743This is why I hate normalfags, they're so boring. I don't need a retard screaming nigger and tranny every 5 seconds but someone who knows how to generally act normal but isn't afraid to be a bit edgy is nice if rare.
>>731134420>>731134743this is why I won't play multiplayer games anymore
>add people from a /vg/ thread>they're nice at the start but too overly affectionate, as if they want to get you into e dating them or something>barely talk to you after a bit, always see them on the thread trying to make more "friends">feel like I'm just another number and like it wasn't genuine anyway so I distance myself from them>they stop talking to me altogether>start thinking "eh we had nothing in common and those guys were weird anyway"am I autistic?
>>731135143No. It was from a gacha general wasn't it?
>>731135202Yeahalthough lately that has been my experience adding people from 4chan in general recently, back in 2015 or so the people I added felt more genuine
I only play minecraft and stardew valley...
>>731134420>>731134743Performative righteousness is a core part of American-Christian culture and makes it fucking IMPOSSIBLE to talk to most people about anything that isn’t sports
>>731135143no, they are looking for girls to groom
>>731135297actually pretty true. even during the era where generals adopted discord servers which inevitably caused drama, you'd generally find a few normally functioning people. i miss old /dbdg/what was your experience around that time in 2015?
>friend I met on 4chan recontacts me over 2 years after we had a falling out>we continue like nothing ever happenedSometimes things turn out alright.
>>7311354392015 I added some guys on /vg/ and we were friends for a whileWe eventually drifted away but the 3 of us were close.There was also another girl I cybered and cammed on with on skype too, but that's neither here nor there, I just want people to talk about stuff with.One thing I noticed though, is that actively seeking out friends seem really ineffective. It's better when the friendship just forms naturally by pure chance
>>731134978yeah i also sometimes play contractors VR and it's packed with literal children shouting 'nigger' in the lobby. i can't stand that either. you have to slip the funny gamer word into some kind of context or it's not nearly as entertaining.
>vrchatthe only friends I have now are ones I met on vrchat, and I haven't played in almost 5 yearsI've had people add me in other games but they never keep in contact, I guess since everyone defaults to discord servers as their third places
>>731135867>actively seeking out friends seem really ineffective. It's better when the friendship just forms naturally by pure chanceTsar Bomba truth nuke. I would say most times I've tried it on this website it felt forced, but I did end up finding one dude who was cool that I'm still friends with to this day. So I dunno, maybe sometimes it's still worth it. Only issue these days is that it's hard to form them naturally since anyone rarely interacts in vidja anymore. Even if they do, they're likely not looking for friends since they already have their group.
>>731117991i had some and we used to play games and chat all the timethen i got busy with work and suddenly years had passed and we dont talk anymore
>>731137086reconnect with them. im sure they'd appreciate it
>>731135321Which version of Minecraft?
>>731135321Kazusahomo being cringe and boring as usualReisachads rise tf up
>>731117991I'm in like multiple friend groups and I've also watched multiple friend groups crash and burn out of drama so many times it's unreal. I have long time friends I've known from my PS3 days that to this day still hang out and chat, I have my own group I made where I only invite people I'm close with and won't exactly cause drama, are some irl friends etc and other communities that I dabble with from time to time. Making your own discord and only inviting specific people is legitimately the way to go because I swear the rot for a group starts slowly and you have to be prepared to get the fuck out eventually unless you make your own.
>>731134420>>731134743I know that feel broShit like this is the main reason I dont have friends IRLYou think its bad down in georgia? Try talking to someone in New yorkI remember being in college and going to the vidya club, and during the second meeting the fattest person I have ever met in my entire life said that their getting rid of "male and female" options in pokemon, and everyone started to clap. That same day i was walking to the cafeteria with a few of the guys, I made a joke about two of them fusing with potara earings and one of them said that "Fusing with that guy would make me weaker". It was kind off chuckle-worthy, but then he IMMEDIATELY started to profusely apologize as if he just called his mother a whore or something. I'm talking dogeza level prostration, because I guess people just aren't allowed to riff on each-other anymore? When we sat down, the topic got to how the only "representation" I want to see in vidya are diffrent fighting styles and how Haitians machete fight with one hand behind their back and one of them turned the conversation into him virtue signaling about how le racism is wrong and how America exploits Hati or some shit. I tried to make it clear that I couldn't care less but he just kept going on and on looking me dead in the eyes and going "This is serious dude". That was the last time I attempted to have irl freinds Thank you for coming to my blog
i got a little loyal 10 year friend group that would actually be willing but>opposing shifts>one is diseased and sleeps most his life away>one got brain damage and gets too much pain in tense games>one is choosing a job through the army and gets his time destroyed>one is a coinflip if he chooses us or gets forced out by his drinking chavs
>>731117991I'm the only one who doesn't regularly play vidya with my friends because I don't own a modern PC or any modern game consoles. Even if I did, the games I like aren't the same kinds of games they like.
