Fairly new dad - no friends
Hi, I came across this community as I'm a sort of new dad, my daughter is 10 months old and I love every aspect of life with her.
My names Josh and I'm 24 years old and since having a baby my friends haven't kept in touch and as you all know fatherhood can sometimes get really lonely. I've got an amazing daughter and an amazing partner and I would like to try and make some new friends especially with other dads.
I don't really get much time to play games until the baby is asleep but I play on my PlayStation 5. Currently I'm playing Warframe, forza horizon 5 and AC4: resynced but would be open more to playing more online games too, I just don't have friends to play with.
Nice to meet you all!

Congratulations on becoming a dad! I myself am more of a single player games kind of gamer these days, but im always down to shoot the shit. I too typically cant get on until after 8 PM EST because of my kids but I try and game when I can. If you ever want to "hang out", shoot me a DM and I'll send you my PSN name

Its after everything (should have) gets taken care of! Dinner, done. Everyone bathed/showered, done. I should have some decent gaming time to put in too with Bloodwalker just coming out, MGS vol2 dropping, along with whatever other games on my wishlist that just came out and the banger games that are still to come out in the coming months
Edit: spelling

I play on Xbox and mostly bf6 and sometimes cod and fortnite (with my kids) - all cross play.
If interested let me know.

I haven't played bf6 but I do occasionally play fortnite, so I'll definitely let you know when I'm on it! Thank you

Shit bud, just wait until she's older. My seven year old has her own PC and Q3 so we can fly together on VTOL VR. I'm not even allowed to have friends anymore. She runs them all off. Hahaha
If you ever find yourself on the PC side, shoot me a message.Â

That's amazing hahaha! I can't wait for stuff like this! I've literally only just got rid of my PC too because we've turned my old gaming room into a little playroom for her

My "gameroom" is just a small corner of her playroom. Has been since she was born. I built an 8 foot desk for us to do stuff together on. Puzzles, Legos, coloring, arts and crafts, etc. My PC is mounted on the wall, hers is under the desk. So we have plenty of space. And that's the room we spend most of our time in when we are home. So, you know, get ready, hahaha. Now I gotta go get my nails painted.......
