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.

Counter Strike 2, met both my girlfriend and boyfriend there.

"Friendly" is not the name I would use for my average counterstrike team.

I've not played counter strike in 20 some odd years, or so, but if it's anything like I remember, then yeah, that sounds accurate.

The Counter Server community was friendly enough though.

Maybe I got rose coloured glasses on for source but it seems the abuse is way worse now.

Equally matched and the enemy team is going to have an anureism with how angry they are.

You don't make friends with the enemy team.

Me neither, but the few people who went through 90min of intense battle while being team players deserve a friend request.
