Linux-compatible multiplayer games to make new friends in? [seeking recommendations] (lemmy.ml)

I'm seeking recommendations for mp games where I could make friends so

  • must run on Linux
  • must have a multiplayer element
  • said multiplayer must not rely on you already having friends, so it must include an alive function finding you a team
  • must have a function to communicate and add people you played with afterwards

The games I know of, which fullfil these (obviously tired of these, hence why seeking more):

  • Deep Rock Galactic
  • Dead by Daylight
  • Guild Wars 2
  • League of Legends
  • Overwatch 2 (possible issues with client on Linux)

I live in a country where I don't speak the language, I moved here not to go homeless in the previous country and I really miss any human connections. I will appreciate the recs.

From Ireland to Germany, and before that from UK (unfortunately didn't get a citizenship before leaving, so I cannot get back, I don't want to elaborate on my life story and family situation, if you don't mind). I tried Minecraft, but I'm not into Sandbox. I'd be happy being someone's mule, but no one sought that where I tried playing, so I gave my account to someone who couldn't afford one and moved on.

With minecraft there’s a lot of other possibilities apart from just survival/survival multiplayer. You might be interested in Hypixel Skyblock, which is basically an MMO, also minigame servers in general can give lots of opportunities.
