multiplayer games on PC?

[Eddi]

In the new year I am going to get myself a nice PC to play games on

I don't use my PS4 as it reminds me of death because the person I brought it off has died plus I have lost the wires that connect it to the controllers

I am particularly keen to have a go on multiplayer games, in my 40 years I have never played in multiplayer on any game

What are good games to do multiplayer on? Or that are exclusively multiplayer?

My brother-in-law says World of Warcraft and that seems OK but honestly it doesn't appeal to me too much although I will probably try it, and I know about Starcraft, I played that many years ago and I don't like it

I would like to cooperate with other players rather than just play against people

Any ideas?

If you can play together with him? You could go for survival games like 7 days to die, the Forest 1/2, Baldurs gate 3, there are lots of shooter games where you are on a team at least. League of legends is also team-based very fun as well.

I used to play world of warcraft, it requires a lot of time, it is not a casual game, so if you start on that expect to invest a lot of time in it

I've been watching videos about it and it seems complex but also fun

It's just that I don't really like fantasy settings, things with elves in them and stuff

I'll ask my brother-in-law about it when I see him at Christmas

I will have a look at those others you mentioned

It's not a difficult game to figure out.

But it is nothing but fantasy creatures

What type of games do you like to play?
RPG?
FPS?
Puzzle?
Card?
Board?

pretty much every game genre has a multiplayer version available.

I'm looking to take it up more as a social activity than anything else

Seems to me you really need to ask those you wish to socialize with what games they play

I don't really know anyone who does gaming

With the exception of my brother-in-law

He also plays Risk online, I like Risk as a board game so I'll have a go on that

Bit of a catch 22.

I started playing diablo 4 because I like the previous diablo games.
Since I do not know of anyone I know who plays diablo 4, I just started chatting in game.
I now have a few people I socialize with in the game.

Just quickly looked up Diablo 4

It seems interesting will definitely look into it

If you want a game that is good at the same time, then Path of Exile and it is free.

Just looked that up, when I get my new PC that is the first I will try!

If you're looking for something cooperative that also gives you a chance to make new friends then MMOs are possibly the best bet. World of Warcraft is incredibly popular and you already know somebody who plays so it's definitely worth giving a try at least. I believe you can play for free up to a certain point so there's no harm in giving it a shot.

I'd also say that Guild Wars 2 is worth looking at as an alternative MMO. It's still a fantasy setting at its core but also has far more sci-fi elements than Warcraft.
