    Got to have the right kind of game to foster that kind of online friendship. Talking in game is generally the precursor to going to a discord. DRG and your example miss that step

      DRG is the perfect game for my friends to remain connected because it’s low stakes and fun. We can shoot the shit.

        Right, but I’m talking in the context of meeting new people, not maintaining current ones.

      Yeah I don’t mind voice calls with people I know well or in game chat, but I’ve had friends that could just pop into a VC on like the apex discord to find teammates and that idea just fills me with so much dread lmao
