What are some red flags when making gamer friends?

Somebody self-identifying as a "gamer" is already enough of a red flag

Both "friend" and "gamer" are red flags

I lack the experience required to adequately answer this question.

If they mention any modern western game, they are intolerable normalfags that should be avoided

if they have tons of nice skins

if they only play mp and only in a party with people they know irl

if they play moba

surprisingly this

This. All someone has to tell me is they play Dota or LoL and I immediately lose all desire to speak to them.

nothing, in my country there are very few gamers so we cannot be picky about it. All the normies are into sports, weekend parties and getting laid, it's fucking disgusting.

"Gamer friends".
If you can't see the red flags, you are the red flag.

First post, best post, etc. If your hobby defines who you are, you are probably a shitty person.

>not razer brand socks

fucking casual

Having 1000+ hours in TF2 or some other shallow online FPS is pretty much a sign of mental illness.

Sorry you have shit taste, weeaboo.

Mad cause bad.

You sound like someone to avoid, weeb

>hairy stubby legs
>pimple face
>manlet
>razer snapback
>razer jacket
>that "proud gamer" stance
>shaggy douchbag teen hair

Can you get anymore insufferable?

They play Smash Bros

Still not bad enough to stare into the same boring little maps for hundreds of hours.

>plays games to stare at the maps
>thinks everyone does the same

Is this autism or retardation?

add Brazilian

how is he supposed to reach his bags?

fpbp

>"so I'm a gamer..."
>dropped

>huge white board
>fuck ton of icons
>that PC tower

either this guy is deluded as fuck, or he is an actual MLG player doing multiple tounaments and razer being his sponsor

They like a game you like, but they like it a lot more than you do.

...

yeah i can't tell if he's a trust fund kid, or getting paid to play call of duty :v

>making friends

>doesn't know how to take care of his skin and eat properly
>overweight

Really big redflag.

Would you guys befriend me? Owo

plays jrpg
uses the word waifu

Nope. Sorry. Get some real videogames.

I wouldn't care if they played LoL or CoD or anything, to have a friend that has anything even REMOTELY close to what I dig would be a blessing.

Anyone who posts on Sup Forums has a 90% chance of being underage, a pol faggot or just a retard.

>playing video games
Grow the fuck up, faggots. Don't you guys have girlfriends?

Making gamer friends.

>favorite color is green or red

For what person does anyone need a whiteboard in their apartment?

>nuclear hazard sign on door

am i the only one fucking dying

>someone says they're a gamer
>say "aren't you a little old to still be playing video games?"
>mfw i play 16 hours a day

Could be worse. They could self identify as a gaymer.

looks cool. Would have been better if not gay razer shit. Are you trying to cover shitty stains on chair or what?

yes, you are a bit burdened by low self esteem issues but nevertheless pretty fun

>>favorite color is green
Who are hipsters who think blue is too mainstream?

>person likes fallout

fair

>I primarily play on (console name) instead of using them for exclusives
>My favourite game is (game released in past 5 years)
>I can't wait for (Ubisoft game)
>Did you see that stream by (streamer)

Not to say I'll drop a friendship like that, but I'll know you have bad taste

>having 1000 hours in a decade old game is a lot
oh, you

>calls himself a gamer
That's enough of a red flag for me, nobody who plays anything more than call of duty on xbox wouldn't call themselves a gamer.

they can't go 5 mintues without making a political comment

>he doesn't have 1337 gaming sound foam
Quit reverberating sound off the walls like a NOOB

marth main

which one are you?

Nah, at least those people are nuanced and as a result have a higher chance at being interesting or at the least more entertaining

>inb4 he thinks he's the 10%

>favorite color is red
>it's an edgy meme color now because "muh gamer"

Im a retard

This about anyone

I got some sick LED accent lighting that coats the wall behind my TV and monitors in red light. It looks edgy as fuck but it's so much nicer on the eyes at night

>Dumb fox poster

>likes nintendo

>playing video games and watching cartoons after the age of 20

>fox

If they are PC gamers.
PC gamers are some self entitled cucks.

what if both those colors are your favorite

don't worry, user, you won't grow out of it either.
you'll be just like us
i hope you're prepared

Eh, some people use them for organizing projects or short term schedules. It's just nice having a designated "quick scribble" area.

santa?

>snow kids

We can agree on the above, right?

>he's never played a game with deep enough mechanics and detailed enough maps to enjoy them for over a decade
what a fucking casual

who /purple/ here?

do these actually work? I want to become a twitch whore

>gamer friends
>friends

>slippery green man
thats a very good

>playing any online FPS for a decade

when I was growing up no one called themselves gamers we just played video games

1000 hours is nothing spread out over 10 years. You could go years without playing it and still get to 1000.

Cheap ones don't make a huge difference (I just have the wall behind my desk padded up) but they are nice to look at. A lot of it depends on room layout and quality of your mic and stuff. If you have $30-$60 to blow, they're okay

twitch merchandise

yeah, there's people in Kappa shirts at my uni and they all have shit taste in games and are all-around cancer

>meme color
end it

if you favourite color isn't blue there's something wrong with you

Blu iz best colur

when people think 1000 hours is some impossible no-life amount they just seem like they play trash with annual releases to me

>they take videogames seriously
>they get angry if they lose/die
>they care about esport faggotry
>they play one game exclusively
>they only own one platform
>they are under 25
>they post on cuckchan

>Having a favourite color
>Not a favourite combination of colours

Yellow and black just about beats blue and yellow

Red and black can fuck off

Just become friends first and then figure out if they play vidya. Their character comes first, not vidya.

>talking to coworker during downtime
>somehow vidya gets brought up
>"Yeah I like Hearthstone."
>"Yeah I like 'League.'"
>mfw
>awkwardly say you don't play video game anymore and change the topic

Their taste in games says a lot about their character.

yo if you use a laser mouse you aint my friend man

>self entitled cucks.
That's an oxymoron if I've ever seen one.

Having more than 10 friends on Steam

>being so autistic you cant even have a conversation about your hobby because 'muh tastes'


Youre a nigger right? Or just some super beta white skinny guy?

shut up, youre the moron

>Pimply dork with rich parents
Doesn't seem to bad, might have been a bit jelly as a kid
>Socks on carpet
Cast him in.

They use Sup Forums buzzwords in their regular vocabulary.

Red and black > black and yellow >>>> blue and black

Purple and Blue is the best combination though.

>hey user, wanna play league
>please, user
>just one game
>'cmon
been there, done that, got the t-shirt
