As far as fanmade mods/games go, I've always had a soft spot for The Nameless Mod for Deus Ex. It came out in 2009 (and had been in development since 2002!) but one of the old devs came back to give it a graphical overhaul, add a new level & redo all 60 of the existing ones in more recent years. IIRC this 'TNM 2.0' project is now more or less done as far as the main game goes and they might still add one final patch to cover the bonus game mode (a two level sidescroller) & add one more new level.
TNM itself takes place in a simulation of the old, long-dead DX forum the creators used to be members of in the early 2000s, when most of them weren't even out of high school yet. So there's plenty of impenetrable injokes & memes that the player almost certainly won't understand. But I've always found the passion they put into a mod of this size (and the fact that they finished it at all) admirable, banger soundtrack (made for free) too.
Above all it's also an incredible nostalgia trip to the Internet of the early 2000s. I miss it all, bros: the freedom, the creativity, lack of censorship, the old school pre-Reddit forums, the lasting online friendships, the people (even the jannies) actually being quite sane compared to today's overpoliticized and degenerate Redditors/Twitterati, even the fucking leetspeak. I compare TNM to something like Fallout Frontier and it always makes me sad - I never fail to find myself wondering, where did the Internet in general & modding communities in particular go so horribly wrong? Is it even possible to return to a fraction of those lost better days of yesteryear?
I think game engines and indie promotion killed the mod scene. It still has creators, but kids don't know about it.
The other day my son was playing a crappy VR shooter and I kept wanting to play the Professionals, a mod for Half Life that was a ton of fun. It was very early 00's ideas, and had references to stuff like the Matrix and Face Off. It got me into Gun Fu movies. I think if we do see something, it will be indie and for something like VR or Switch.
