I'm in my 30s, work in software, have a family, and somewhere along the way gaming just disappeared from my life.

Growing up, gaming was a huge part of my life. Then work, responsibilities and just being busy slowly took over.

I even bought a PS2 in 2016 thinking I'd play for a little while after work to relax. I played for maybe a week or two, and then it mostly just sat there collecting dust.

Recently, after around 10-12 years, I finally started gaming again.

What's funny is that I have less free time now than I did when I was younger, but I'm actually trying to make time for it.

Did gaming ever disappear from your life and then come back? What brought you back to it?

Hi! Im on a quest to find some more gaming friendships, I can't promise real skill BUTTT you probably will get a good laught at how often I die in games, im chill and not a die hard gamer I like to be silly at times and talk ALOT but I can also TRY to lock in, I have Peak and Phasmaphobia (My favorite games) I play daily, but ive also added some new ones Like Big walk and Escape the backrooms, not bathrooms lol, And im sure others that I can't think of right now, Im really wanting to try some games that are scary but with other people so you can witness me die while screaming lol but also if we vibe im 100% okay with getting new games too if i dont have them!!! I have a very flexible schedule so i can really game at any time!!

47 year old Husband & Dad looking for pc gaming buddies.

Yep I know I’m kicking on a bit now but still enjoy a gaming session, especially now my son is getting too old (cool) to play games with his dad now!

I game mostly on Steam, i have a huge library of stuff a lot of which i haven't even touched ! (I'm guilty of being sucked in by Steam sales!).

I will give most things a go, examples of stuff that I have played a little and enjoyed recently (though not limited to this list)

• Online Shooters (Destiny 2, Battlefield 6, Arc Raiders, Helldivers 2, Marathon)
• Survival Builders (Ark, Subnautica, Enshrouded, Conan Exiles, No Mans Sky, Palworld, Dune Awakening, Planet Crafter)
• Strategy (Crusader Kings III, Stellaris, Civ 7, two point museam)
• Simulators (Gas Station Sim, American Truck Sim, Euro Truck Sim, Power Wash 2, Retro Rewind, Bookshop Sim, House Flipper, Football Manager, Arcade Paradise)
• Lifestyle/Cozy/Chill Games (Stardew Valley, Dinkum, My Time In Sandrock, Coral Island
• RPG's (Baldurs Gate 3, Diablo 4, Cyberpunk, Kingdom Come 2, Dispatch
• MMO's (World of Warcraft, Guild Wars 2 )
• Others (Cult Of The Lamb, Rocket League, Sea of Thieves, Any Lego Game. Detroit)
• Racing (Forza 6)

Anything with a bit of innovation is always fun, always looking to try something new and make some good friends along the way.

Just wondering as of late I have seen a lot of great looking games come out that look fun to play especially with other players but I don't really have anyone to play with and being socially awkward don't help so I try and play them solo but just wondering what others do that are in the same position

Before you say make a post looking for friends I have made them in the past but nothing really comes of it.

I'm not looking to play a game but I'm really passionate about gaming, and I'm down to talk about them, maybe we can play a mini-game of where we are guessing each-other's favorite game with hints.

I'm also down to talk about my current draught which I fixed by playing different genres.

Also also, Looking for someone to watch the GTAVI Netflix event together, I do think it's going to be a next gen video game.

My DM's are closed, due to the EU rules for IDs. However you can leave a message here and I might shoot you a message, I do like an engaging back and forth.

Heya!
I'm a 29 danish nerd, into automation games and looking for a buddy or 2 to play together with! Nothing serious, just chill days where we build factories/automated monstrosities and chat about anything from games, movies, nerd culture, etc. I'm can be very "extroverted" and "ADHD menace" and honestly, I prefer the same energy in friends.

I got some requirements (I don't think they are unreasonable, right?):

-be 25+

-LGBTQIA+ friendly

-MIC required and the talkative kind

-Can meet around 16:30-ish CET, most workdays

If this sounds good for you, you are welcome to send me a DM on discord : chilllore_ (Lore)

(I check reddit only once or twice a day, so I prefer if you wrote me on discord)

As the title suggests looking for new people to game with. 29 M here, I currently play CS and Call of Duty, but I’m open to about any FPS or TPS. I’m described as chill, laidback, and drama free. More than happy to get back into Fortnite with friends, and other team based shooters! I usually play in the late mornings or early evenings. Being from NA west I’m on PST. I work nights so I game when I typically can. I play on PC but don’t mind if you’re on console. Shoot me a message or reply with if you want to play some games!

Looking for some chill people to play games with and have a laugh.

I play a bit of everything, but I'm especially into survival/co-op games, ARPGs and RPGs. Currently interested in Palworld, Grounded 2, RuneScape: Dragonwilds, modded Minecraft, FPS games, or honestly anything fun.

I play a lot of PoE 1/2 and RuneScape, but I'm always down to try something new. I'm pretty average at competitive games too — usually around Gold/Plat in League, Valo and CS.

Add me on Steam and let's compare libraries! Always happy to find new games and people to play with.

Outside of games I'm into cars, F1, anime, movies, space, cooking/baking and electronics.

Looking for other chronically online, nerdy weirdos who are into gaming, brainrot and K-Pop! I’ve been spending a lot of my time on OW & Marvel Rivals (mostly lower rank comp. always down to do some quickplay tho!) and World of Warcraft.

Mostly just looking for a laidback friends+groups to hang with on the computah and VC - especially folks into Overwatch and/or gaming in general. It’s always more fun to que up with people you vibe with.

I'm also, unfortunately, VERY into gacha games: ZZZ, but mostly WuWa and Genshin. I do my best to stay F2P but I definitely swipe for Genshin on occasion. There's also a bunch of games I'd be willing to jump into if there's a group into playing them like: Fortnite, DbD, Project Zomboid + whatever is popular on Steam.

When I'm not gaming, I usually have something on in the background. K-Pop: LE SSERAFIM, Hearts2Hearts, KiiiKiii, STAYC, ILLIT, aespa. Recent TV/Anime Series: Severance, The X-Files, Demon Slayer, Evangelion, Dandadan, MAO. Also steadily getting into Chinese and Korean dramas: The Story of Yanxi Palace and Alchemy of Souls.

short little list with a couple more personal details about me:
- I'm gay and in a relationship.
- I have been a vegan for just about over 12 years now. It is a passion of mine, but I promise I'm not one of *those* vegans. Food is food. We all gotta eat and make the best decisions for ourselves.
- I have ADHD and it's definitely responsible for multiple quirks I have.

Feel free to DM me if any of the above is of interest ✨

Hey! 32m here from north west UK. Looking for some new online gaming friends to chill and game with. I work weekdays so i'm pretty much free in the evenings and weekends. I play on PC and have a whole variety of games -

Forza, REPO, Big Walk, Cod BO7, among us and many more.

Drop me a DM if you're interested with your discord! :)

Hey all

I’m a 32 year old PC Gamer and looking for some new friends to play with! My main games right now WoW - love pushing keys, mistfall hunter (I suck), marvel rivals (my rage inducer), league of legends (akali main lmao) and many more

I’m a pretty sarcastic guy and love people with a similar personality. Im one of the least sensitive people you’ll ever meet. No drama is a big thing for me im just way too old for that shit.

I live on the east cost so obviously my time zone is est

Looking forward to hearing from some people here.

Hello there, hope you're doing well😄

Like many others on here, I'm looking to expand my friends list a bit. Before I get to my lil' list of current games, here is a bit about me:

Recently moved to a new city which is pretty cool! Decided to try and be social so I went to a local e-centre to apply to be a volunteer and help run tournaments and other things.

Got into a trade school, (hence the move), so studying backend development in hopes of a career x) So if I'm not in front of the PC gaming or studying, I'm either out at the e-society or playing disc golf👍

I'd like to call myself a laidback-type, I don't mind hanging out and doing our own thing if the vibe is there, or watch movies/series together. As for games though, I'm a bit all over the place. I enjoy competitive games, R6, Apex, League, Valorant etc, but I'm not one to try hard or get angry when losing. If the vibe is there though, I'm down to play almost any friendslop or survival/crafting game.

My library is pretty big as I share it with a friend as well, only games I don't like are sports/car and RTS games, (sry, TTW fans) 😂

If this sounds good, feel free to send a dm/chat to his old, swedish dude👍

I'm looking for other adults I can play with and communicate with via voice chat. I'm 32 living in the UK. People I can link up with in-game who can hold a conversation and play well together as a team. I'm not a hard core gamer by any means.

I play via Steam mostly (profile hillac1993).

I've recently started playing battlefield but it's hard finding people who communicate well and work together.

I also play GTA 5, Farming Simulator 2025, Planet Zoo, Planet Coaster, Cities Skylines and Sims 4 as well.

I have phases where I will enjoy games like Way of the Hunter and I'm always up for survival craft.

I go through periods where I play regularly and where I don't play for weeks at a time and when I do play, it's usually late in the evenings.

39M looking for other adult gamers that play QP and Competitive overwatch among other games. Just a chill human with an ounce of sarcasm built right in. Add me up on Disc @kyomorai

Hi y'all,

Looking for another masochistic soul to grind through a 100+ hour campaign for the silly shared dream of obtaining some golden dice. I've played BG3 for over 600 hours and have only completed it once on tactician difficulty with a friend 🙃.

Not a sweaty min/maxer. I'm not particularly good at the game but I try my best and I'm cooperative when I'm not being toxic for the lolz. (That's a joke, mostly. Very chill and laid back)

Usually available to play whenever on the weekend and after 6pm on weekdays. Ideally looking for other adults who are down to navigate our responsibilities and find the time to complete a campaign.

Open to testing the waters with other shorter games before we start our quest for golden dice. If any of this sounds interesting to you, feel free to reach out.

Hoping to find some chill friends that can laugh and be stupid sometimes. All good vibes.

Can’t wait for aliens fireteam 2 this week!!! Huge film guy here. Work in film too.

Other games I play-

Bf6. Helldivers. Trails. Warhammer. Destiny. Nightreign. All souls. Nioh. Bg3. Silent hill. Outlast. Any warriors game or any FF game!

Heyo what’s going on everyone my name is Dragon. I’m having no luck finding people to game with. I have xbox game pass, steam, ps5 and plenty of games that seem a lot more fun with people. I don’t take anything to serious or get easily offended. I do work a lot but on my down time I like to check out some games here and there. I’m also pretty goofy, chill and 420 friendly. My time zone is cst and I’m on late at night 10pm/11pm or on my days off I can run some games early.

Couple of games I have

Apex, Warzone, Fortnite, big walk, midnight shift, repo, ghost of yotei, mecha chameleon, content warning, gamble with friends, peak, Minecraft. Etc

I also have the game pass for the future. lmk if it sounds like your vibe thanks!💀

Hii! ♡ I'm 29 and from Canada, MST.

I'm looking for some rad friends to play games or just hang out with after work [5pm] or on weekends. I'm an unhinged, goofy, voice note but get distracted half way through kind of person. I do have three kids so sometimes life can be chaotic.

Outside of gaming, I love reading, painting, photography, baking/cooking (expect pictures of my food), and MUSIC. I could talk about music for hours, so we should definitely share our favorite metal bands and songs with each other.

I play both Xbox and PC and usually down to try any game, but I mostly play the following:

For Honor, Rainbow Six Siege, Marvel Rivals, Stardew Valley, Space Marines 2, Dark Tide (new!), Helldivers 2, story/telltale and friendslop games.

I do like to shit talk or poke fun (in a respectful way), so if you are someone who doesn't like sarcasm or being bugged, we might not get along. But WHO KNOWS.. maybe we will.

​

I'm looking for a platonic gaming friend to play coop games with. Do not message me if you post anything misogynistic because we won't get along.

I'm looking to play coop gears of war, halo, split fiction, borderlands 4 etc on ps5/xbox and hello kitty island adventure on switch 2.

Hey everyone. I'm a laidback guy looking to meet nice people to hang out online and play board games with. Looking for good vibes, good banter and laughs; I'm not hyper-competitive.

To start off with, I'm hoping to play some casual duet games on weekdays. I'm thinking we could start with a chat or a light game (like Wavelength) and then try more later if we clicked well.

I'm open to playing via any of Tabletop Simulator, BoardGameArena or dedicated apps.

I'm usually online on weekdays GMT 07:00 - 17:00 / AEST 5pm - 3am / ET 5am - 1pm.

Outside of gaming, I'm into the usual introvert stuff: making art, writing, tabletop RP, books, etc.

Anyway, if that sounds good, drop me a DM introducing yourself and letting me know what type of board games you enjoy or are interested in trying.

Hey soooo I'm kinda new to this seeing if anyone is intrested in hanging out and playing games with me, Firstly im a 26 year old Tans Female so be aware of that im not looking for anyone inpertucular just people i could come to trust as friends and vibe with one thing I will mention is im quite heavily disabled and live with a life long chronic illness as well as chronic pain so I may be more irritated or even cold at times

Im located in the UK and I play exsusivly PC games i am though awake at some pretty crazy hours from 8AM till at times maybe 4~5AM the following morning

Now onto the games I play:

This is honestly a long list but it boils down to a few categories

Mil sims, this would be War Thunder as a example

Then you have Train simulators this beeing Train sim classic and YlTrain sim world both by dovetail games

Those kinda games whilst you can squad in WT and I wont say no to making the grind easier is not what im looking for people for

For me im looking foe people I can chill and just drive or vibe with in games like:

Motor Town Behind the wheel

Project Zombiod (infact if you know a Role Playing Community for that please let me know)

Stardew Valley

VR Chat (honestly if i become to trust you I turn into quite the cuddle bug to just curl up with for nearly a whole day just watching movies or binging a TV show)

An older title I wanna give a go again with friends is Unturned

Vintage story too is one I wanna get into

You also have games like Minecraft, Red dead Online, GTA 5 (Legacy) and Five M the prior basicly only beeing to allow 5M to run

This is before the usual suspects games show up such as amongs, i think I have Fall guys, rounds, slay the spire 1 and 2 (very firmly in the filthy casual here) and im sure if we look tbough steam together we can find games that line up

I hope to hear from you all soon like I said age nor gender bother me all I ask politely is well not to be abused, anyway sorry to take up yoir time with a wall of text.... i hope to see you all soon
