We're discussing something that's been around for quite a while. If you're open to options, the Jedi Knight series and Knights of the Old Republic are great choices without feeling too dated.
It feels like a game from when I was little, but KOTOR is way too old now.
Actually, the only relatively recent games I've played much at all, as in, more than a few minutes, are Team Fortress Classic, Team Fortress 2, Fortress Forever, Counter Strike:Source, Descent:Underground, Rocket League, and I can't remember what others. (If you want to look at my steam profile / games...) I think I've "played" 3DMark on steam more than I've played D:U and RL combined. Part of that is because from March 2012 to February 2015 or so, I didn't have a computer capable of playing games. Part of it is also because I do other things with my time besides just gaming. Also I don't like dropping $40-60 a pop on games. *IF* I buy games, I prefer buying them at like $5-15 or so, although I'll go up a bit if I really like something. I prefer spending the bulk, as in 90-99+% of my money, on hardware. For example, I'm looking at getting a GPU in the next couple months, and getting more into 4K video editing. I'm considering the GTX 1070, RX 480 (if my fears that it has a 150W TDP are false), or the as-yet-unannounced RX 470/490 or GTX 1060/Ti. Total budget, including any video editing software I'd buy, would be $400. If I got the 1070, it'd rule out the FE, as well as buying Vegas or Premiere. I also like keeping my hardware a long time. I saw someone's post on another site where they don't upgrade unless it's a 10% performance improvement. For me, I look for more like a 400-1000% improvement. If I'd had a GTX 470 or newer, I might not get the 1070; although , the improved heat/power might make me upgrade from something as recent as a 770. (I may post another thread in the GPU forum closer to the time I'm thinking of buying, idk when yet.) Some older games I used to like include Total Annihilation, Commander Keen 4, Captain Comic, Sopwith, Life & Death (one where you performed appendicitis surgery - I think we got this one when we found an old 20MB hard drive on the side of the road, and this game was on it), etc. I used to play a lot of the older DOS games back in the day. I also played a few BBS games - those things where you dial into a specific computer with your modem, pre-internet. One game me and my brother used to both play was Tradewars 2002. Edit: OH! How could I have forgotten Descent?? ("gabbagabbahey")
Call of Duty 4 on PC was incredible during my high school years in 2007. I really miss that type of COD PC game with a server browser and mod features. Ugh, those days are gone.
