I have friends. I've tried gaming with them. They don't appreciate my tendency to put down the controller about twenty times an hour to Google something, get a snack, grab a beer, take a piss, check reddit, let my dog outside, or pick a new podcast episode.

They say I slow them down. I say they slow me down, I'm doing six things at once over here.

I guess ur trying to be funny but that just sounds like you’re wasting their time trying to play something with you so

AbsolutelyUnlikely t1_j6g6n5l wrote

Yeah, was just joking. I'm terrible to game with, I do much better just playing single player games where my distracted ass isn't bothering anybody.

I hate Destiny 2. It's my favorite game.

Jokes aside meeting up with game groups is always an exciting time

Hope you guys made some dope memories! Some of my best friends right now were online friends. We all happened to live in the same state tho so we meet up every couple of months.

Yeah. My group is in Long Beach. Been there 3 times and it’s sooo different. The culture there is a whole 180 from Ohio. I miss it all

Not sure why this was downvoted, but that’s so fun!! Two of my friends met online through games as well!

More and more people seem to be doing that, and I for one am thrilled! Meeting my husband through gaming was the best thing ever.

What sucks is that this is too many people for a dungeon, but not enough for a Raid.

j/k I've met some pretty awesome people thanks to Destiny.

That's cool, it's not often that people actually meet their online friends. Because you know, absurd travel costs and expenses.

Fuckjoesanford OP t1_j6fxdo1 wrote

Took us a couple of years to plan due to that fact, but still made it happen!!

Noice! Glad it went well I'm guessing, since you posted pics.

The one time I met some gaming friends IRL... It went. Poorly.

It went swell! We have played together for several years and talk on discord all the time, so I was confident about the trip

Oof currently getting back into Destiny, just realized why I left in the first place: no respawn missions are very hard to beat solo and this game isn't fun without friends 😩
