Game Night - Game Suggestions

[ethansito]

we need to have a competitive connect 4 tournament.

That's too complicated. We need something that will appeal to the casual gamers too.

I am not really a competitive player (strongly preferring co-op games) and from EU, so probably not gonna attend because of timezone :/. Nevertheless here are some suggestions:

• Minecraft with some heavy content modpack with progression (meaning having quest book or similar with a lot of small quests forming long chains)
• 7 days to die
• Tabletop Simulator (have it bough, but haven't actually played it)
• Overcooked (2) looked like fun (don't have it, would buy it)

My platforms are PC (Linux preferred, but I have Windows too) and Switch.

I'm sorry you are right. We should play a nice game of Mech Warrior.

Borderlands 2- Always fun to shoot in chaos with friends
Minecraft, or Minecraft Feed the Beast- It's Minecraft, what else can I say? I do prefer Feed the Beast though; it allows for a lot more options and potential
Divinity 2: Original Sin- Probably one of my new favorite RPG's to play with others because it's pretty much D&D, with the computer acting as DM, and I always have a good time playing it with friends.

I am noticing a lot of suggestions for a Minecraft server.

Tonic What say you?

Some good ol fashioned Halo multiplayer would be pretty cool.

ethansito I got sick of minecraft back in 2012. I had my fun with it, but every server I ever was on rose and died, and I generally don't like the rules most have as I'm fairly staunch about not allowing much outside QoL mods. In the end I felt a bit cheated of my time. Not sure I'd want to sink more time ever again into the game.

Verac Are Halo 3 and Halo Reach servers still online? I'd dust off my xbox360 to play with people here. Halo 4&5(especially 5) aren't Halo and I don't have an xbox1 either. If you wanted to play Halo 2 I know there is a way to do it but I forget the exact method, I believe it is tricking the xbox to think its connecting to servers but they are 3rd party. That or it might be some type of virtual LAN thing.
