I have to admit, I'm not optimistic either.

My advice to you would be to try many games and see what you like.

- In terms of community, the 4X gaming community (with the notable exception of a game called SOTS2, which is notorious for it's over-defensive community), is among the best, but the problem is 4X gaming has entered a period of stagnation.
- FPS games generally have poor communities all around. The exception being ARMA, which tends to revolve around ex-military types and the players there are generally older (although some sub-communities have decline).
- MOBAs are pretty new player unfriendly and should be avoided.
- MMOs are generally unfriendly. That said, I've heard good things about a few niche MMOs.
- RPGs are generally friendlier (the more hardcore the RPG, in general, the more friendly, but you won't "belong" unless you're a hardcore RPGer).
- Certain strategy games have good communities, although others are very unfriendly. It seems to vary. In general, the more hardcore ones have better communities.

I'm not really into sports games, but I have heard bad things.

I'm going to send you a PM.
