The original Ultima Underworld games contained the genesis of this idea, but System Shock would be the studio's masterpiece. They pioneered a genre now known as the immersive sim, where players are plunged into a world where choices matter, problems can be solved systematically and thinking outside the box can be critical to success. System Shock was originally developed by Looking Glass Technologies, a small Massachusetts studio known for its innovation. This might be one of the best remakes ever made. To give a better sense of what developer Nightdive has accomplished, we'll compare the remake to the original, explore its history and share some thoughts on performance too. This Unreal Engine remake carefully straddles the line between modern and retro gaming, delivering a heartfelt interpretation of a classic. Overall I would definitely recommend you pick this game up.After years of uncertainty and anticipation, System Shock has made its triumphant return and this remake is even better than I could have hoped.
Also the ending kind of sucks but I've heard that it is from the original game so can't fault nightdive for that.
Bought the game and essentially binged it for my entire 15 hour playthrough. Overall, not a perfect game, but very fun nonetheless with really cool setpieces, cool enemies, and fun puzzles that most of the time aren't too frustrating. Game is very heavy in resource management, and you'll never really feel like you have a lot of anything except for maybe in the last level because they throw a lot of items your way. Also, as far as I know, you can't change any difficulties once you start your game, so keep that in mind too. Even with combat on 1, you'll probably die a fair bit, so keep that in mind when you play. Prepare to be frustrated at times in the game, as sometimes it feels unfair and it can be really hard to figure out where you're supposed to go next (I played the game all on 2's except for combat which I had on 1).
Also rewards exploration a lot, but sometimes not as much as I felt like it should have. If you like cyberpunk games or games that tell story through the atmosphere and collectibles, you'll like this game. The game isn't without it's flaws, but its pretty good.
