>tfw all my friends left me because of overwatch
>>343272220
League of Legends took my friends from me
Stop playing a shitty game you faggot
How do you make friends online? I've tried adding people from /v/ but they always end up being cancerous.
>>343272495
I added someone from /v/ a while ago and we became good friends. He even bought me a few games but eventually he became sensitive to the same banter i had been using for the longest time. So i cut contact with him
thanks for the free games
>>343272495
Tbh its one of those things where if you go out of your way seeking it it probably won't happen
Maybe buy the game and play with them?
Also, determining your friendship over the type of video games you play is just shallow on your end.
>>343272495
Bigger question is how do you make friends online when you don't use Steam anymore?
>>343272712
Fuck off shill
>>343272712
>Maybe buy the game and play with them?
Okay Blizzard.
>>343272220
>I've never had any friends to begin with
Feels really good man, don't have to rely on anyone to enjoy the games i play.
>>343272664
this is correct desu
>>343272495
Most online friends I make come from MMOs, nowadays private servers for old school ones specifically.
>Finally cave and buy Overwatch after people wont shut up about it
>Get in a group with some friends
>"haha ok Anon, I think you should play (healbitch character) she's really good!"
>Agree since I'm beta
>Really want to play some of the fun looking characters, but have to do this shit every single game
Kill me.
>>343272712
or better yet, buy Fallout 4 and the season pass for all of your friends.
>>343272743
Anyone?
>>343273562
Are you one of those people that don't use it because of "muh drm"
Giving away a copy
youtu.be/lbh4GkEtD_c
>>343272220
You deserve it
>>343272220
then they weren't your friends to begin with.
>>343272220
Wait, they left you because you play overwatch and they don't, or because they play it and you don't? This is important.
>>343272495
>online friends
ha ha.
No.
>>343272271
I really hope league of legends dies soon.
I want my friends back.
How do you talk to a real person?
>>343274497
They are all playing,im the only one that is not
>>343272271
>>343274539
>his friends are faggot
At least lose them to dota or something.
>>343272220
>all my friends are playing overwatch while im not
>still hang around in the call and shoot the shit because our friendship isnt based entirely off whatever were concurrently playing
>>343273045
This was happening to me too especially because I enjoy healing.
Play whatever you want 2behonest familia. My friends don't obligate me to heal though I do because I enjoy it and when we play competitive I do anyway.
Just tell the group "alpha" that he plays a mean Symetra and he should main her.
>>343272220
If theirs one thing I've learned in my years of gaming its "go where your friends go or be prepared to lose them"
You gotta just bite the fuckin bullet and buy the game man
I played World of Tanks with my friends for 3 years and hated it for half that time. I'll admit I sulked a bit, but I just kept it up, because in the end it wasnt about the game, it was about my friends.
Then I accepted the cuck, got gud, became tank nerd, and started having some real fun.
Thanks a lot camper.
>>343272271
this fucking game just ruins friendships man. You play it and everyone i just constantly fucking miserable and it feels like you'd rather just play a singleplayer game.
>>343274653
Shit tier friends, you should be happy they're gone.
>>343274629
im real
>>343272220
>video game addicts abandon their friends to get their newest high
Who would have thought.
>memewatch
You got lucky OP, your friend were casual faggots now you got the chance to find actual good friends
Cheer up
>>343272271
Me too. It's weird how not liking a video game has ruined my social life. My parents always told me the opposite would happen.
>>343272712
Why would you recommend people to buy a game that is objectively terrible?
>>343272495
Step 1: Get a game with a multiplayer feature.
Step 2: Play said game's multiplayer feature.
Step 3: Interact with/help other users of said multiplayer feature.
Step 4: and this is the part almost everyone fails,don't act like a clingy sperg, and just have fun with the fucking game. Do your own thing and help other people out once in a while or whatever. They'll be like "Hey, anon, you're pretty good. Want to join my cock sucking group?" or "Hey, anon, thanks for saving me from [insert generic corporately fabricated MMO enemy here]!" or "Thanks for giving me that rare drop!" Eventually, you'll hook some genuine, nice people who will invite you to play other games with their friends.
Step 5: ???
Step 6:Sacrifice them all to some inter-dimensional demon gods who in return will bestow you with unfathomable power.
>>343272220
It's okay anon, I haven't left you yet.
>try to get my friends into fighting games for forever now
>they get too salty about losing every time
>can only play CSGO with them
>now they've all fucked off to overwatch
>>343274901
League is kind of like a drug
Addictive, expensive and ruins lives.
You want to quit, but you always come back to it.
>>343275138
>fighting games
Why do they hang out with you at all?
>>343272271
League is dying, you'll have them back soon
>>343275083
I approach MMOs like this, just focusing on enjoying the game together with different people, only to notice that everyone else in my guild are getting closer to each other while I'm left out, because they know how to socialize and keep contact outside of just playing together.
>>343275138
Fighting games aren't fun, let's be real.
You're innit to winnit
>>343272220
>really good friends with guy from /v/ for months
>gift each other games andsay good night too
>one day my lolicon slips
>gets pissed off and calls me a fucking pedo
>unfriends me
>>343275594
I used to be like that too, but I somehow managed to be part of the "inner circle" of the guild I'm in now
The only advice I can give you is be more social, talk more in guild chat, make people realize you exist
Drop the "nobody cares what I have to say" mentality
>>343277614
Why do people care about stuff like that?
One of my friends has a fucking furry profile background and I still play games with him.
>>343273045
Just pick something else and say you want to try that character.
>frogposter
nvm, enjoy healing every game you little shit
>They aren't your friends to begin with
But then who is?
>>343273179
Fuck off, Todd
>>343275023
there is no game so terrible that it can't be enjoyed with friends
except dota 2
>>343272271
>tfw it just happened to me
>>343272220
At least they didn't leave you for Battleborne. Fortunately, mine came back after a few weeks because that game is dead.
>>343275023
>Objectively terrible
>One of the most popular games on the market that plays well and has waifus
/v/ once again knows nothing about video games
>>343272271
If they would even look at LoL, let alone play that crap, you should pick your friends more wisely.
Don't waste your time on people who like the weeaboo uninspired overly simplified garbage that LoL is.
>>343275083
GURIFISU
>>343274909
This.

>not having a canadian best friend to play games with since halo 3
the time of making real internet friends is long passed. back in the day everyone had a mic and there was nobody turned off in-game voip, nowadays everyone only ever talks to the people they already know from back then on a third party voip and disable in-game.
All my friends left me for LoL, you're 5 years behind me OP
>>343283437
It doesn't matter if it's popular, it's still a shit game.
Blizzard just knows how to market their shitty games with waifus and addicting slot-machine systems where everyone "wins" once in a while. The biggest fucking casual is still relevant because the game is balanced around flashy ults and other dumb shit.
>>343285676
this so much. if you didnt make your online friends before xbox live parties and apps on pc became more widely used, you missed out hard.
>>343272220
>>343272271
>Having friends who play memes
You were asking for it.
>24 hours in the game
>still not good at any class
>friend shit talks me for it
how the fuck do I git gud at this game
>>343285976
>wanting to get good at bad videogames
learn to play Starcraft or something you fucking nerd
>play overwatch with friends all the time
>we have tons of fun
>hear about competitive
>oh god no please
>friends assure me that they will totally not get mad at everything when ranked comes out despite this happening with CSGO and Dota
>i wait fro the day of reckoning
>ranked comes out
>salt overflowth mine coffers and ears
>so much anger than the usual chill talks we have that i have to actually leave the discord because i was getting a headache
>now avoiding that discord like the plague
fucking ranked ruins friendships fuck
>>343285976
try playing based around what the rest of your team is doing. don't double up on a character that's already on the field.or just main lucio on attack and mei on defense.
>>343286203
also other people just straight up did an exodus from the discord as well. it was beyond retarded
>>343285676
I'm Canadian, who wants to be my American friend?
>had lots of work through open beta
>to keep up with friends and youtube creators I sometimes watch I'd have to shell out 40 dollars for a game I might be literal shit at
At least mobashits are free.
>>343272220
Wow that's harsh, abandoning a friend just because he plays a shitty game.
>>343286418
>buying games because an e-celeb got a free copy
stop that.
>>343272596
some people grow up and some people think /pol/ is still cool
>>343286503
I'm not doing it, not without trying.
It's been almost 5 years since I've spent more than 20 dollars on a single game. Not gonna start for this one.
>>343277614
Maybe he's from a Commonwealth country or Russia where that shit can get you thrown in jail.
>>343272271
League, CS:GO and Hearthstone robbed me of my friend.
Worst part is, none of them seem to be enjoying those games. They just come out mroe miserable and frustrated every time they end a game session.
