Conceived in a secure military facility, this Jedi Knight fansite has been running consistently for almost 30 years: 'It looks really close to what it did back in 1998'
The Massassi Temple, a fan website dedicated to Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2, has been continuously operating since 1998, making it one of the internet's longest-running gaming communities. Founded by Brian E. Lozier, the site began as a hub for tutorials and has evolved into a comprehensive archive of mods and multiplayer maps, supported by a dedicated community. Despite the decline of many early gaming websites and the shift towards larger platforms, The Massassi Temple persists, with Lozier now focusing on preserving its extensive community creations.
