A Raven Monologue
Team Fortress 2
More than a decade old, it's no longer quite the chaotic phenomenon it used to be, but Team Fortress 2 is still kicking. This early take on the hero shooter would eventually pave the way for the likes of Overwatch but maintain a fantastic sense of community whether you're looking for something super serious or seriously silly.
Off-Peak
Cry of Fear
Having started life as a total conversion mod for the original Half-Life, Cry of Fear was released as a standalone game in 2013. It's built on some aging tech, but it makes the most of Valve's GoldSRC engine, making for a brilliantly paced and deeply unnerving horror shooter.
Paladins
Brawlhalla
There are a few contenders when it comes to great PC platform fighters, but Brawlhalla fits the bill while costing you nothing. Regular seasonal updates, as well as loads of different fighters, weapons, and gadgets, ensure it always feels fresh across both online and local multiplayer. Real-money purchases can be used to buy new characters as well as cosmetic items, but as far as free Steam games go, this one is hard to beat.
War Thunder
War Thunder is a hugely detailed military MMO that's easy to grasp but features an enormous degree of depth for those players who want to master its system. Whether you're into ground, air, or naval combat, there's something on offer, with dozens of vehicles from some of the world's most advanced armies making for epic dogfights, tense tank skirmishes, and pitched warship battles.
Runescape/OSRS
Both modern-day RuneScape and its enduringly popular Old School equivalent exist on Steam, providing two ways to scratch your classic MMO itch. Both games offer huge worlds to explore, complete with their own fully functioning economy, deceptively deep combat, and a wide variety of skills to master, from smithing to cookery. Dozens of quests, from collecting ingredients for the local chef to hunting down and slaying legendary dragons, will keep you busy for a very long time, as will vibrant communities and regular developer updates. Paid membership subscriptions offer access to more skills, quests, and map areas, but it's possible to pay your fees with in-game gold if you're invested enough.
