Hey everybody! My wife and I have recently been playing Destiny 2. It's excellent imo and both of us are having tons of fun, except for one little detail...

We need a third person!

We both like to take our time with levels, enjoy the scenery, role-playing our characters... and with most of the level thingies (strikes, vanguard) its required that we have another player with us.

Sometimes that goes well, but more often than not we end up with someone who just rushes through. Totally kills the whole point of why we play!

Is there anyone out there interested in playing with us? Or have advice for finding others besides the fireteam finder thingy? That hasn't really worked so far.

I hope this doesn't violate any rules for posting on this instance!

Thanks everyone!

Edit: fixed the title so people would stop thinking I'm asking for a threesome

I played D2 with a good guild for a while, and it was quite a different game than playing solo. They often wanted another player to go through things, and it was pretty easy to pick up a third player if 2 of us wanted to do things. I could see an easy-going guild being a good place to pick up a third player when that wants to explore like you do, without the same person always having to want to play when you do.

I left the guild when some of the shine of D2 fell off after the last expansion, and I realized I was letting it run my life. They even offered to let me stay, but I knew that'd be bad for taking control back.

Anyhow, try to find an active, but casual guild.

Thank you! When you say guild, are you talking about the clans in D2? Or some other thing?

Ah, yeah. Clan. I'm used to playing fantasy MMOs with "guilds" instead, and still call them that.
