Jedi Academy and Jedi Outcast possibly have the best movement and combat system ever in a video game. Jedi Knight Dark Forces 2, the predecessor, is so fast it's entertaining too.

Morrowind is definitely the RPG game with the best movement system. There's plenty of potion, enchantment, and spell effects like fortify speed, fortify athletics, jump, slowfall, and levitate that will enhance your character's movement. It covers every movement possible in a 3D space and at any speed you want. Virtually unlimited options.

Tomb Raider's movement system is underrated and gave Mario 64 a run for it's money. If only the camera turning wasn't so shitty it would be perfect though.

Thief 1 and 2. There's no cool parkour or high speed movement or anything, but using all your tools to move unseen and undetected is really fun, the skill ceiling is quite high.

GTA 4 is retro now, so I'm gonna mention that game. It's simply the best pedestrian and car ramming simulator in the world. Moving from A to B wasnt a bore like GTA SA.

Not sure if IV is retro, but I agree nonetheless. Been replaying it since summer and it feels next gen compared to the crap coming out today.

Too bad GTA IV's framerate is absolute garbage EVEN on PC.

Facts.

GTAIV just might be the beginning of the Soulless era

I'm playing it with ryzen 5 3400G APU, no GPU. You can get a pretty stable 40-50 fps, never drops under 30, at 1280x720 by disabling the shadows. With a video card it would definitely run smoothly.

It's got a soulful world and soulful mechanics, but soulless missions.

It's got a soulful world and soulful mechanics, but soulless missions. Someone at rockstar hates fun and player freedom.

>Soulless era
I'm pretty sure that started with V.

I remember being blown away by the Dreamcast graphics for Rival Schools 2

og doom
was literally about to say rayman 2 but I guess that's not an option anymore because of picrelated

>>7201889
The movement in Rayman was always too slow to be enjoyable to me. It takes too long to move place to place even if it is a tight experience.

It was the last major title before (((they))) started sucking out all the soul from video games.

>>7205951
No, it wasn't the last, it was the first
