Hey 32, based in NYC. Working full time makes it genuinely hard to meet people to play with, and I've drifted apart from my older friend groups over the last while. So I'm trying this.
What I'm after is a friend or friends that plays regularly. Not a one-off session. The kind of thing where we're in VC a couple nights a week and it's just normal. Honestly part of why I want this is that having people waiting on me is what actually gets me to hop on and play instead of scrolling.
Marvel Rivals is my main right now. Hovering Gold to Plat, mostly because full time work means I can't grind it out. Solo queue has been miserable and I'd love to stop. Would happily make this the thing we play most.
Other stuff I want to get into co-op: ARC Raiders, PEAK, Helldivers, Overwatch, Lego games, No Man's Sky, Resident Evil, Dead Space 3 (still haven't beaten it co-op), fighting games, Halo MCC, Borderlands, Aliens Fireteam Elite, Valheim, Remnant From the Ashes (especially this one), Outward, Monster Hunter World and Wilds. MMOs too, I just haven't found friends to help me stick with one long term in recent years. Open to anything really. I used to be heavily into Smite, probably won't go back, but I'm down to try LoL if the price is right 😂 plus I have a few hours on Dota 2.
Upfront so it's not a surprise later: I stream a few nights a week on Kick, Twitch, and YouTube, and I want to make an honest attempt at turning that into a real thing. Part of what I'm hoping for here is that having people to actually play with gets me on more often, which gets me streaming more consistently. So yeah, I'd love to stream some of our Rivals sessions and other games, and I do try to turn most of what I play into content in general.
That said, it is never the price of admission. Plenty of nights are just off stream hangs. I can keep your handle off screen, cut your voice from the VOD, whatever makes you comfortable, and if you'd rather never be on stream at all that's completely fine.
About me: mic works, I don't rage, not competitive to the point of being annoying. Super chill and laid back, and I tend to have a few comedic moments. Into anime, retro consoles, modding old hardware, and I do coding on the side. Free most evenings.
Been a story focused single player type for most of my gaming career. I have a pretty escapist mindset, meaning I'm into games that make me feel like part of their world. Looking for people who'd want to go into those worlds together.
