Not a discord server, but we have a (moderately active) cozygames community on the Threadiverse:

!cozygames

Noerknhar,

I’m off course already a part of that 🤩

I’m a member of a Discord server like that. It’s named Past Gen. This is the server’s own introduction:

Welcome to Past Gen Gaming! We’re a community of generally older, but mainly patient and relaxed gamers. There is no age requirement to join us, just the mindset. We won’t tolerate elitism, toxicity, nor any form of hatred. A lot of us don’t have a lot of free time, so when we do, we like it to be a good time. So sit back, relax, and let’s play some games together.

Just let me know if you’d like an invitation link. If so, I would DM it to you instead of posting it publicly.

Noerknhar,

I’d very much appreciate an invitation, thank you.

Best I found was a Discord server called “dads gaming”. Rather than whiny youngsters, you get middle aged med who have little time for gaming, so they play casually and are happy to play with others who are also mediocre. I haven’t used this for ages though.

Noerknhar,

Sounds lovely!

@cRazi_man@europe.pub avatar

A lot of people are interested in what you’re asking for. You could try making a server.

fluxan,

I fit this description! Can I get an invite via DM, please?

@cRazi_man@europe.pub avatar

I don’t have invite permissions for the group I’m talking about and I found the channel on Reddit (back in the days when I used to be on there).

Having a look at Reddit now, there are still dad channels to be found: discord.gg/papasquad

Here’s another one: discord.gg/h6PkhgPjRC

Happy for anyone interested to add me: discord.com/users/crazi_man

(UK timezone, very erratic and limited gaming hours)

fluxan,

Thank you!

Beehaw’s probably your ticket

Noerknhar,

Can you elaborate? It’s that the name of a server?

Gullible,

Beehaw is a Lemmy instance specifically oriented toward being cozy. Just suggesting a better resource for finding what you’re looking for

Noerknhar,

Understood, thanks!

Gox_99, do games w Looking for cozy / wholesome gaming communities

Please let us know if you find one.

I hope you find this mythical place you speak of

ArsonButCute, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

Play 4x/grand strategy and youllvonly get better as you get older.

You might find yourself playing on slower speeds with rts styles though

DragonTypeWyvern,

Jokes on you, I’ve always been bad at RTS

Jankatarch,

Strategy games are interesting, I feel aged when playing mount and blade.

I used to take on 10 men at once by myself with only half health but needed 25 men to fight an army of 35.

Now I lose a simple 1v3 but can beat armies thrice my size on hardest settings with my barely trained archer units.

I also use bufs and consumables in pokemon now so that’s a thing.

Saleh, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

I have never been good in FPS when it comes to “both jump around the corner and shoot, who wins?” But i have always been good at: “Where the heck did he come from?! what is this stupid play, this is not the meta!!!” happily frustrating some tryhards. As i get older i can still enjoy that way of playing.

I’ve noticed that with experience comes better predictive play, rather than relying on reaction time.

Halo 3 is the only Halo game who's campaign I have never beaten other than Infinite, which I haven't touched and probably never will. I was working on fixing that, deciding to play through each Halo game in order of release on legendary, but I got side tracked. I had planned to first beat the whole Mass Effect trilogy on insanity before returning to Halo, as I've only every played the first game, but then I got side tracked again. Now I'm playing Kenshi. It's no wonder I never finish any game series... I always have the desire to restart from the beginning of a series each time, but have an attention span this small.

@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Kenshi is worth it lol. I don’t own it myself but played it at a friends house and had fun

It’s frustrating because I feel like my skills are actually still improving and better than they used to be but there’s always some 11 yo kid who will absolutely wreck me over and over again to the point where I just quit out of shame.

Pulptastic, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

Priorities change. Now I spend more time working on my house or riding my bike than I do gaming and that is OK. It’s fun to be casual too.

Day 360 of sticking with anything is impressive. Thanks for sticking with this and posting content for us to consume. I appreciate it and hope you have something special planned for your anniversary.

Halo 3 is hands down one of the best games ever made.

Unquestionably the best console shooter ever made, indisputably the best splitcreen co-op and multiplayer game ever made.

I understand pc gamers or people who didn’t grow up with an xbox might find those statements in their expansiveness hard to accept, no halo 3 was fun but it wasn’t that good though… to which the only correct answer is yes it is.

neon_nova,

I don’t remember halo 3 too well, but I remember getting a 360 for it and I remember playing it on my 30” 1080i crt.

I was in university at the time, so I was more focused on other things at that time. Halo 1 was it for me.

supersquirrel,

Halo 1 and 2 are great, but hands down along every metric Halo 3 is better!

I get it, I LOVED Halo 1 too, I just think Bungie pulled out all of the stops for Halo 3.

Definitely Halo 1 had incredible vibe to it to, it is a gorgeous game in every meaning of the word.

neon_nova,

I think my preference for halo 1 is pure nostalgia. I have so many memories of my best friend at the time and I going co-op legendary. Or using “gamespy?” To play online matches.

renrenPDX,

I loved using Forge to do stupid shit 🤣

supersquirrel,

I mean forge is really awesome, Bungie didn’t have to give a shit like that but they did.

I didn’t grow up with it and only picked it up as an Adult, but holy fuck i get it. It just clicks

SonOfAntenora, do gaming w I'm still in full denial, personally.

It’s literally the opposite. Platformers, point and click, full 3d and action games.

Wait you mean competitive multiplayer? Well turns out, being a sweaty tryhard after all is not possible for us all.

Particularly because of meta changes, intentionally bad players (think of feeders in moba) and general hostility within a team as soon as one of these gamers show up.

Games are supposed to be a fun pastime, most of the internet treats them as a second job, some people need to be remainded of this simple fact.

But… Why is the logo for this community a Bad Dragon?

I see it as a curved sword handle on top of… idk a set top box 🤣
