Anyone feels like almost all modern online games are boring? (lemmy.one)

I don't feel compeled to play any online game at the moment except if a friend asks me to play with them. Even then, the only part where I am having fun is when some weird shenanigens happen which doesn't happen at all given how sanetized and "ballanced" games are. I just want to see a funny ragdoll fly off one side of the map, or get an op weapon and listen to trash talk by the enemy team as I obliterate them (or the opposite). I want to mess around with other players and try dumb strats with my pals. Not every modern game is that way but they tend to get fewer and fewer as time comes...

Have you tried Gang Beasts?

No. What is the game about?

(I can google but I am asking in case you have an itch to nerd out on a stranger)

Best, funniest local multiplayer game I've found. Also playable online. Up to 4 players. Goofy physics-based fighting game in which you control a jellyish humanoid and control arms individually to fight. It creates some really hilarious moments as you're both dangling off a billboard, holding onto each other in a big cluster, etc... The trailer.

I think dunkey made a video on this... Could be wrong though. Looks pretty fun!

There's also Human Fall Flat. It has the same feel as Gang Beasts, but instead of fight you have to explore a map and solve puzzles

I have that but no friends to play with...

It's basically physics-based wrestling, and it's goofy as hell.
