I don’t play these games, but my kids do. And I am thinking (as a man), why wouldn't I want my character to be a hot girl. If I an going to spend hundreds of hours staring at an ass, I would rather it be a hot girl ass.

That's legit the reason why Lara Croft is the star of Tomb Raider.

I played 3d peron games (not online). Always picked girl for that reason. Never mattered because i'd end up focusing on the game.

In college, I played Diablo 2 as a sorceress and a dude was hitting on me because my character was hot?

Like dude, all sorcs in the game are ladies. Wtf.

[-] [email protected] 25 points 6 months ago

I had this same username on Reddit for awhile and I got hit up by guys a few times. Like, dudes - it's a fucking Kids in the Hall sketch. I am not an actual chicken lady.

I played a female character in Metin 2 when I was somewhere around 12 or so. The game was ultra p2w and I got some dude to pay for all the good stuff for me. Later I blocked him because it got really creepy.

Playing online games after 35 be like.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 6 months ago
[-] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

Literally why is that a weird thing? People over 35 grew up with gaming, it's pretty normal.

As a Qiqi main, I support your life decisions.

People don't even bother to ridicule me.

Do people really hook up in games 🤨? I mean... you have tons of other apps for that, why use game chats.

[-] [email protected] 94 points 6 months ago

People hook up everywhere, plus if you meet through a game you already have a common interest and a lot of stuff to chitchat about Win/win

[-] [email protected] 60 points 6 months ago
  • Mutual interest
  • Games often require talking and supporting each other well to beat the task at hand
  • Probably into more games and hobbies together

Indeed, it's a win/win

Do people hook up on lemmy?

[-] [email protected] 40 points 6 months ago

Lemmy is like Reddit, but with an even greater concentration of Linux and FOSS nerds, so the likelihood is extremely low.

[-] [email protected] 33 points 6 months ago

Open source relationships it is then

No, because lemmy is actually just me, and then six dogs pretending to be like 400 other active users.

It's an instant common denominator. What's the difference than meeting at another hobby?

Dating apps are not optimised to help u find a partner, they're made to keep u on the app

[-] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

I met my fiancée at a training thing for work. Everyone canceled except her her, me, and the teacher, so we had a lot of time to talk lol. We are getting married in a year and a half.

Man, I've met partners I dated for years because of random shit. Reddit, random interactions on discord, and a few more. My parents met because of a convention my dad organized for a show that was off the air for a few years at that point.

Humans are social creatures and they do be socializing.

I personally connect with people easier through games. For me, it removes the feeling that I have to entertain someone through some branching conversation. There's less pressure knowing we're focusing on the same task or goal and conversations feel more natural based on what we're doing or observing. It's also helpful to see how people approach obstacles and how they handle/display their emotions.

I feel personally attacked. I have endured ridicule as a Keqing main for many reasons, but not age. Can’t wait to meet this guy! ᕕ( ᐛ)ᕗ
