The Video "Game"

Got it. 2017 to be specific.

1) Alternate history Takes place in a world where JFK wasn't assassinated for one thing

2) Lots and lots of objects Loads of stuff is affected by physics and can be moved or thrown or eaten by a recycler charge

3) Artificial Intelligence January, the operator robot made by Morgan, is far more intelligent than the average operator.

So are Alex's operators in the ending.


4) Simulation Game Morgan starts off trapped in a simulation of one particular day. Prey: Mooncrash has you control people in a simulation.

The ending of the standard game also reveals you've been in one this whole time.


5) 3D Printing There are machines used to turn items into cubes of materials and machines that turn those cubes into items.

6) Non-standard weaponry (mostly) You have your silenced pistol and shotgun, but you also have a gun that makes hardened goop you can platform on. And a toy bowgun. And grenades that do things other than exploding. And magical alien powers.

7) Not actually in the simulation genre though It's a first person exploration game with shooter and RPG elements

8) Has a roguelike DLC (of sorts) Prey: Mooncrash has some random elements, especially as the simulation gets more corrupted.
 
I have a new one!

1) You could easily mistake this as a Star Wars game for many reasons, including the title, but it's nothing of the sort.

2) At the same time, based on the title and the publisher, I'd understand if you mistook it as an Indiana Jones adventure game

3) Then again, several beloved Star Wars games probably wouldn't exist without this one (and its predecessors)

1) You could easily mistake this as a Star Wars game for many reasons, including the title, but it's nothing of the sort.
The title is often abbreviated by SWOTL, which to me sounds similar enough to e.g. SWTOR (Star Wars: The Old Republic) and it's made by LucasArts. See also 3)

2) At the same time, based on the title and the publisher, I'd understand if you mistook it as an Indiana Jones adventure game
I could see Indy trying to find and stop the secret nazi weapons

3) Then again, several beloved Star Wars games probably wouldn't exist without this one (and its predecessors)
The X-Wing and Tie Fighter flight simulator games were made by the same people and possibly with at least some of the same code

4) You get choose between playing good or evil
You can choose to play as Allies or the Luftwaffe

5) The game's setting and some of the missions are historically accurate; even the fictional bits are often plausible and somewhat based on reality

Even the so-called secret weapons (aircraft) you can play with or against have some basis on real plans that didn't make it into production

6) You can be alone in your metaphorical coffin, or control an entire fortress worth of crewmates

Certain planes are single-seaters that have just enough fuel to reach the enemy to deliver a rocket payload, and the pilot needs to glide back in the best possible scenario. Sometimes they're called flying coffins because of obvious reasons. Then again there's the B-17 Flying Fortress where you get to man many positions (pilot and gunners).

7) Masters of the Air dramatized the same historical events 33 years after the game

The later parts of WW2 in Europe where the Allied air forces competed with Luftwaffe for air supremacy

8) The previous games in the series were set in the Pacific war and in the Battle of Britain

Battlehawks 1942 and Their Finest Hour
 
1) Sequel to a game where the only thing in common is the titular character.
2) The original game was released on a system you never heard of from a company you also never heard of.
