How does multiplayer gaming fit into your life? (beehaw.org)

What games do you play? Who do you play with?

As I've gotten older, I've struggled to keep up with multiplayer games. I don't really want to play unless I have someone to play with, and finding someone to play with is more trouble than it's worth. I have friends and family who game, but we always run into one of two main problems: -1) Our schedules simply refuse to align, or -2) We can't agree on what to play.

I'm always on the lookout for cool indie multiplayer games, whether that means large-scale like Battlebit or small-scale like Deep Rock Galactic. Some of my friends are either always chasing that absolute latest game (i don't), or they're real into MMOs (I'm not), or they have very particular preferences about which aesthetics they will take a chance on. It's a struggle, but I'm always working to figure it out.

So what do you think? How have you fit multiplayer gaming into your life?

The only multiplayer game I play is Borderlands 2 with my girlfriend, and that is very once and then... So yeah, MP games are not the same for me anymore.

Well except for Jump Ultimate Stars, I always make time to play that shit whenever possible.

Tf is Jump Ultimate Stars? 😂

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A DS fighting game like Super Smash Bros.

Shit that looks cool af. How are you playing that? Emulator, or?

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Original hardware, but you can even play from emulator.

Take a look at the custom server, this is the discord server where we play each other and with this guide you'll be able to set everything up.

And yes, it is cool af, here you can see some gameplays from some users from the discord server, it is not a competitive fighting game by any means, but it can get competitive 😅

idk if you're gonna catch me on your servers, but i appreciate you sharing! maybe another adventurous soul here will follow your instructions ;)

Not my server by any means, but yeah, I was even thinking of making a post about this, I mean, the user base is so tiny on Lemmy yet and it would be like promoting a niche game to a niche community lol.
