Everyone I've dated has also been addicted to d2. Turns playing into date nights!

My wife and I do pizza and game nights in the basement from time to time. She does jigsaw puzzles or legos while I fight the forces of darkness. While she's not a gamer, she is an electrical engineer and is captivated by how complex the game is not only from a game-play perspective but also the level of coding/AI it requires

Easy: Me and the boys in the basement doing "boys things" and my wife and daughter upstairs in the living room doing "girls things" šŸ˜‰šŸ˜

On a more serious note: Be it games or everything else: Set and negotiate the limits and always keep up talking to each other to hold or get things back in balance before it escalates šŸ˜‰šŸ˜‡

After a 20 year break from D2 I started playing D2R in 2024 with my sons (9 and 10 years old)

Where does one go to find this exceptionally niche group of potential dates?
Closest to "enjoys video games" I ever had in a partner was "well, some Wii games are kind of fun".

Either way though, not a relationship-block in either direction. Just strike a decent balance and you're good. There are some other fun things to get addicted to together as well after all. :P

It's actually thanks to D2R that I even met my partner.

...also, she's more into PoE (both 1 and 2) these days, she's been going hard with the new PoE1 league that started this past Friday.

I'm in CET (Central European Time)
My profile says Ladder, but I play both Ladder and Non-Ladder.
My profile says Softcore, but I play both Softcore and Hardcore.

Awesome answers! I really didnt expect that :D I am glad you all have nice relationship even though you are a little bit junkies :D My GF hates this game. Its on one hand quite bad on the other I am glad, because it brakes my addiction and I spend more time like a normal person, not only grinding.

Well, I've only felt comfortable dating among a queer internet subculture, which self selects for all kinds of nerds

I very much agree on finding a balance: things to do solo, things to do together, makes it all more interesting

I will wonder if it's the game she hates, or the time commitment/priority it holds in your life. It's very easy to get sucked into a gaming loop and ignore the "boring" real life maintenance. It's also frustrating if she's feeling like she's managing you, instead of being a partner to you. It might be helpful to look at the time you spend gaming vs chores/setting up appointments/dealing with other life events. It's also important to have other hobbies/creative outlets, and exercise. My wrists will not let me marathon game like I used to XD

Where is the option "Moonlight as the hero of Sanctuary, i.e., partner does not know about Diablo II"?

not me looking over at my partner (also playing the game with me) to ask ā€œso before I cast my vote for why is there no happy relationship option, that is still the right button, right? we’re not breaking up for Emilio?ā€
