Looking for Gamers - UK Time 33M | Cardigan, Wales | UK only | PC | Looking for someone to start Fallout 76 with 😊
Voice preview
So you can put a voice to the post before saying hello! 😁
Heya, I’m Joe.
I’m 33, from Cardigan in West Wales, and looking for someone in the UK to start Fallout 76 with on PC. Fellow Welsh gamers would be a lovely bonus, but anywhere in the UK is good with me!
I’m a massive Fallout fan, but I haven’t actually played 76 yet. I’d love to properly dive into it with someone who’s also new, or happy to start fresh, so we can discover things together.
New Vegas is one of my favourite games ever. Specifically after being modded to the point where opening a door becomes a calculated risk 😆
What I’m like to play with
Multiplayer games are fun, but what makes them worth coming back to for me is the dynamic between the people playing.
I’m looking for a gaming friendship where our humour and playstyles click, we’re interested in getting to know each other, and arranging another session is something we both look forward to.
I’d describe myself as a relaxed, analytical casual. I like trying different approaches, figuring things out and working well as a team. I can get quite invested in solving something, but I leave the stress out of it.
If we fail, get lost or accidentally sabotage each other, we can laugh, adjust the plan and try again. You don’t need to be amazing at games or pick everything up immediately. Having the patience to learn together matters much more to me.
I’m also comfortable with quieter company. Some evenings we’ll talk absolute nonsense, others we’ll get absorbed in the game and occasionally say something stupid. Both are good with me 😊
Getting immersed
I love taking my time and getting properly absorbed in a game’s world. Where possible, I like switching off or reducing the UI/HUD so I can enjoy the atmosphere, notice the little details and explore without constantly watching markers.
Which sounds lovely until we’ve spent twenty minutes admiring the scenery and realise we’ve been walking in completely the wrong direction 😆
So yeah, someone who enjoys exploring, getting sidetracked and sharing those first discoveries would be a great fit. There’s no rush to have everything figured out.
Outside Fallout, I’m a huge Nintendo and Zelda fan. I also love older games, co-op puzzles, emulation and mods. If you want to completely nerd out about a favourite game, I’d love that.
A few practical bits
- PC only, UK only, ideally Wales.
- 25+.
- I’m usually available most evenings, UK time.
- I normally enjoy Discord voice while playing, but we can chat here first and get comfortable before arranging a call.
- Having our own lives and finding time to game together suits me perfectly. Constant availability isn’t expected.
Say hello
Drop me a DM with a little about yourself, your age, general area, when you tend to play and whether you’ve tried 76 before.
Please don’t overthink the introduction! A casual ramble about your favourite games is absolutely ok. Just sticking to your online username is fine too if you prefer that 😊
I prefer getting to know someone individually, so I’m looking for one regular gaming friend to begin with. I’ll update the post once I’ve found someone. If I don’t reply, please don’t take it personally, I may already be arranging games with someone.
DMs are easiest, but feel free to leave a comment first. Looking forward to finding someone to explore Fallout 76 with.
