Is it still worth playing?

Raven Software's 2002 first and third person shooter with hack and slash elements, for Windows and later Mac, GameCube and Xbox, a sequel to Dark Forces II. Kyle Katarn, a mercenary for the New Republic, had cut his connection to the Force. He has to return to his Jedi ways to stop the Dark Jedi Desann from empowering an army of the Imperial Remnant with the Force. His arsenal grows through the game. He uses blasters, lightsabers in three styles and Force powers drawn from a Force Meter, though he starts without Force abilities and regains them after the first two missions. The single player campaign is linear, with allied characters and puzzles. On PC, multiplayer runs over LAN or the internet with Light and Dark sides, with support for mods. Lightsaber, blaster and Jedi powers in one game still give it a mix of melee and ranged fighting today.
