Girls of Sup Forums, how do you get your boyfriends to play vidya with you?

Ever since my boyfriend and I started going out, we've never played together once except for a few minutes together on Vindictus. I play Black Desert and tried to get him into playing Paladins with me since it's free but all he does is play League of Legends and HotS all day. I don't dislike those games but I'm not very interested in them. Why is it so hard to bond over a single video game?

What are some good games guys like that have a fun and friendly co-op to them? Gay dudes and girls (males) need not apply - as much frilly junk as you put on, it won't change how men and women mentally operate differently.

god I wish I was a girl

Go to OkCupid or Fetlife or EHarmony, user. Believe it or not, there's plenty of equally autistic-acting girls that don't know the difference between someone being affectionate and the broad side of a barn. You'd even be surprised to meet someone playing Gary's Mod.

you both have unbelievably shit taste

why would you want to play games together

this

but also have you just asked him to play games with you
pick a couch co op game instead of mmo
esports shit

iRO

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HAAAAAAAAAAAA

Good shit user.

I mean, those aren't the only games I like to play.

I don't own a console unfortunately and he only owns a PS4 without any co-op games that are fighting games. I worry that'd be stressful for him. Who wants to play a game they'll get salty at with their partner?

So we can do more than just sit around with our thumbs up our assess finding excuses of inane shit to talk about.

One of the Smash games.
Metal Slug 1, X, or 3. (Others might be good but I haven't played them).
Puyo Puyo Tetris
Either of the older Battlefront games.

How do you know he'll get salty?

Oh shit, that's right, he has an arcade cabinet. I should ask him if he has Metal Slug on it. Smash too if he's willing to pull his Game Cube out of the attic. Thanks, user!

You dump chad and be my gf, faggot

>Gay dudes and girls (males) need not apply
>OP removed himself from the thread

...

Fighting games are the source of all saltiness. Besides, I can't see any fun coming out of such a tense scenario.

>He takes it easy on me if I don't know how to play, he doesn't have fun and neither do I
>He doesn't take it easy on me, he might have fun but I won't
>I somehow manage to whoop his ass, I might have fun but he might not
>Literally asserting your force onto the other player in an attempt to conquer them

Never really gave me a good vibe for relationships.

>Implying

Assuming this is not bait:
I very rarely enjoy playing videogames with other people, I'd rather play by myself and maybe talk about them later. The only notable exceptions is Left 4 Dead 2. Also, huh, CoD games up to BO, though I'm not allowed to like them on Sup Forums.

I'm a guy, but we started with playing a shit ton of retro games in coop. DKC, Mario games, I think we had the most fun with Mario Party and Mario Kart games. Played Diablo etc.

Now we are sort of in the same situation. We have distinct taste in video games. She plays western titles while I play weeb stuff.

From time to time we play HOTS, some racing games, fighting games together just for fun, but not as often or as seriously as before. Or sometimes I just sit and watch her play GTA V or Witcher III.

I think you should just let it go. Don't force it. There will be titles you both will be able to get behind. Play those and that's it.

I've tried so damn hard, after six years I've given up. I've spent so much money on games he swore we'd play together. Played them for maybe a week then he dropped them because
>loladhd
So I just play my own shit and he plays his. Sometimes we'll play the same game and talk about it but that's as far as it goes.

Guys perspective here, (assuming OP isn't baiting):

Video games are, for the most part, escapism. Sometimes, we just want to escape from everything and just enjoy Vidya for a while. That includes the GF. I live with mine, and occasionally I will get us a game we can both play (for example, we play Ark together and that is fantastic cause we both can be playing together without always being tied to each other and doing our own thing.) It's just finding titles you both express interest in and playing them, and having games that you like independent of one another for your sanity.

bonding over video games is shallow and should not be the goal for any relationship

>having a good time together is shallow
That's what a virgin would say.

most video games aren't good times though

That's what a Sup Forumstard would say.

yeah if your not playing to have fun

>Girls of Sup Forums

Never heard of rope, OP?

first post ____ post
fill in the blank

gayest

Play with him overwatch, you can be mercy he can be pharah, and I will be reporting you for non participation get out of my games couples reee

Buy a switch and a mario party game. :^)

My boyfriend loves Zelda, the new one. But I can't get in to it. Something about Link's design feels off.. and I used to want to fuck him in previous games too. Maybe I'm growing jaded.

oh god i really want a boyfriend
you've just made me feel sad again

youre on the perfect website for that, my dood

You broke a 2 years relationship because mario party 2
Is not worth it bros

How about trying to love yourself instead?

I know it's edgy and all, but other people really are a waste of your time, especially when you're not in the best space of mind. Best to concentrate on what you want rather than letting people get the better of you and take advantage of what you have to offer. Build yourself up and when you're sufficiently self reliant and confident and not all needy and shit then go find something to copulate with.

but my guy that entirely depends on the person in question. some people can get along by themselves just fine, but sometimes people just need someone to talk to or to lean on to actually realize what they need to do in life

lol what bf, I'm staying single and getting sick witch powers

That's actually good advice user

videogames are best enjoyed with a friend of the same sex not with your insignificant other.

>all he plays is league and dota

Fuck, well im sorry to sat he's "one of those" faggots

i have "friends" like this

Give it up, he's LITERALLY not going to be playing any other games unless you somehow get him permabanned from both

Sure, but there's a difference between someone to talk to and have your back and someone to validate your existence.

>Nakir is getting tired of you, human

>Girls of Sup Forums
Im sorry what did you say?

It's honestly not worth it.
Better off to just enjoy what you both enjoy and maybe talk about it in bed after sex or during dinner or while cuddling on the sofa or whatever your preferred intimate time activity is.

Most multiplayer games are either designed to be competitive and there will be a skill gap which will make it unfun and enjoyable or vapid garbage which will be fun once or twice but nothing that lasts forever.

Buy a Switch. I'm not kidding.

We played almost all game with local multiplayer together and it was super fun. Mario Cart, Arms, Puyo Puyo Tetris, Fire Emblem Wariors, Snipperclips and there'll be probably more in the future.

>Fire Emblem Warriors
If he press the xxx and the yyy and the xxx and the yyy will he be sucked?

>>Girls of Sup Forums

I'll treat you much better than that asshole. You should leave him.

When in doubt, grab your dick

I'm a Giga Nigga bigger than this fake ass wigga

>Play from Cod4 to BO with tons of friends and really enjoy it
>Newer CoD's come out and start fucking up everything
>Realize things will never be the way they were before again and stop buying
>Friends keep buying CoD in denial for a few more years

I wish they didnt fuck up so badly, late 2000's and early 2010's CoD's were comfy

U FINK SO
POST DEM PS4 GAMES AND YA HAND

Take up speedrunning

>on Vindictus. I play Black Desert and tried to get him into playing Paladins
Try not asking him to play fucking garbage, you dumb cunt.

>boyfriend
Haha, oh god... husbandos are better anyway.

Try to figure out what exactly attracts each of you to their respective favorite games, after that it should be relatively easy to find the one to bond over. Or not, maybe he just doesn't want to play with you.
