I feel like a good chunk of multiplayer games these days are either extremely toxic by design or don’t put a whole lot of emphasize on actually playing together.
It kinda feels like a lot of games more or less turn you into a less stupid bot for others to play with and there is not so much space for social interaction anymore.
Do you know any games that still invite you to get to know new people?
I am not sure if it will help you know more people, but Deep Rock Galactic has one of the most friendly Multiplayer experiences I ever had. You will find a lemon from time to time, but in general it is a great community as long as you Rock and Stone when someone Rock and Stones to you (you will understand) :-)
Edit: And, probably not a coincidence, DRG has awesome Developers and the general tone of the game is just… wholesome I think is the right word :-)
Rock and Stone!!!
Did I hear a rock and stone?
Rock and Stone!
To the Bone!
If you don’t rock and stone, you ain’t comin home.
