I’m thinking about downloading Wing Commander since I really enjoyed it as a kid and I’ve always wanted to play the other parts. Also are there any games like wing commander that would be enjoyable?

Someone recommended TIE Fighter, I recommend the rest of the series as well. X-Wing for the Episode IV plot, X-Wing Alliance for huge modding opportunities, and X-Wing vs TIE Fighter to act as a long form tutorial for the other games (the keybinds are mostly the same across all 4 games). See their respective PCGW articles for any bug fixes you may need (DG VooDoo is a must for running them as they were intended).
Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is another one to try, being very much on the "simulator" side of the space sim spectrum, with things like power management, plotting nav coordinates to warp, and (in the campaign) multi choice dialogue.
Please get the GOG versions of these games, they are far more likely to work out of the box.
Thanks!
