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.

    Try out Deep Rock Galactic! Very fun coop game and it’s very non toxic. Highly recommend!

        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.

      I saw someone say that the playerbase is generally chill because the dwarves are the toxic ones, and the more I play the more I think there’s something to that. It’s hard not to feel silly complaining about friendly fire, or a slow rez, or the rest of the team not building the pipelines, etc, when your dwarf is already complaining about it. Combined with the fact that Ghost Ship has gone out of their way to identify all of the toxic monetization practices of the industry and do exactly the opposite, which also goes a long way towards keeping “people who want to play chill games for fun” over salt factories.
