I am a 33 year old dad to a toddler with a few screws loose (ADHD, Bi-polar). Life can be tough. Gaming is supposed to be fun. Looking for someone who can vibe with that and has an interest of any level in these games cause I do be picky.
Rocket League (C1/C2) The Division 2 Madden
I know, Madden stinks, but if you like football and games at all have an open mind. I use mods (mine and community) to both deliver better gameplay and a better overall franchise experience, but the real key is couch co-op over Parsec so one of us can grab the INT when the QB barely gets the ball off cause the other is chasing them down. It’s lit.
I’d say that if you’re looking for that, you should be looking at communities of co-op games that have mostly chill and casual gameplay with little competitive areas. Guild Wars 2 and Warframe are two MMO/Live service examples I can think of.
Try out Deep Rock Galactic! Very fun coop game and it’s very non toxic. Highly recommend!
I think I’ve had one toxic player ever in deeprock in my 150+ hours. Someone with the big nuke GL.
It’s hard to use that nuke in a full party and not be toxic. You almost always end up catching someone or someone gets forced into the blast radius burn.
Eh, I don’t think using the Fat Boy is inherently toxic. Yeah, you’re a lot more likely to hit friendly fire than basically anything else the Engineer does, but you can’t really say that friendly fire is toxic behavior without saying nobody should ever play Driller.
You absolutely can use it as a toxic player, but it’s usually not that hard to tell if someone is being a dick or trying their best.
Accidentally killing the Scout as Driller with C4 is a time-honored tradition. (Sorry Scout mains)
My oldest friend and regular gaming buddy have long established playstyles that led him to naturally gravitate to the Scout and me to the Driller.
I usually apologize while I’m rezzing him.
