When hanging out with friends in discord or whatever, what games do you all tend to sit down and play with one another? For me it's some combination of Valorant, Guild Wars 2, and Omega Strikers but I'm curious what everyone else plays with their friends :)

We usually go for the cheapest and dummest crap we find, with most potential.

Typically we break into smaller groups to play gta v or golf with your friends. But we have a valheim server we chill on and this week we all got really into battle bits

Team Fortress 2! We queue Casual and just laugh at funny ragdolls, cosmetics, and the bizarre fever dream interactions that can only happen in TF2 😅

I'm big into splatoon, and some of friends are varying degrees of also into it, from "as invested as me" to "will play it but will make a good-natured fuss about it". It's the most fun shooter I've ever played, despite its terrible jankiness sometimes.

We also play a lot of boardgames on tabletop sim, if that counts.

League of Legends, but with the attitude of "We really need to try more games, but this is the only one we all play."

We've also played Overwatch and FFXIV, but they don't really stick that well long term.

We have a few games that are always in rotation - Left 4 Dead 2, Payday 2, Vermintide 2, Risk of Rain 2. Basically just coop FPS games that, as I list them, happen to be sequels lol. We also play Valheim when new updates come out. Lately trying out Earth Defense Force 5.

Brawlhalla, hands down. A Free-to-play platform-fighting game that is surprisingly technical with its movement and combos, so it can lead to very interesting and epic moments.

It has a huge roster but you need to pay in-game currency to access most characters, which you gain very quickly by just playing the game, so its a non issue.

Our current rotation of games is GTFO, Back 4 Blood, Ready or Not, Starship Troopers: Extermination and The Division 2.

We used to play quite a bit of Grand Theft Auto Online (PC), but too many games got ruined by blatant cheaters and griefers so we quit. We also had a Project Zomboid server, which was super fun, need to go back to that game sometime!

Is Back 4 Blood any good now? I played at launch and it was ROUGH. Devs really seemed like they didn't know what they were doing most of the time.

[-] GameBoy_Advance@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

i typically play Destiny 1 and 2 as well as Battlefront 2 with my friend group. sometimes we quad team on minecraft bedwars. and even duel each other sometimes

[-] memphis@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

How is Omega Strikers? I've had my eyes on it but it's not really my friends' type of game. I might play it on my own because I think it looks really cool.

Mostly Rust, these days. However, we have played (and enjoyed) Valheim, Satisfactory, Raft, For the King and Heroes of the Storm. I want to get back to multiplayer Minecraft again though. Playing alone is getting old.

I built one of my best friends a retro gaming station out of a raspberry pi 2. Its called the Nicolas Cage SuperStation. We've been playing old school streets of rage with our ps4 controllers.

You can download the operating system, LakkaOS, from here: https://www.lakka.tv/
