System Shock

This is not a game. This is a manual on how you do a remake. It's perfect: faithful to the original, but with updated graphics and controls, all done without betray the core of the original game or "adapting for modern sensibilities" (ugh). It's a work done with love and respect. The game in itself is fantastic, it looks phenomenal, has amazing map design, oozes atmosphere, it's got smart gameplay and just shows how bad game designing has become for our generation. It's also highly customizable in its difficulty, and this should be another example for modern developers. You can ease or make harder the combat or the puzzles or all of those things, you can fully customize your experience. Buy it, it's beyond awesome.

The Original System Shock was a MASTERPIECE. The Enhanced Edition was a MASTERPIECE. This remake is GOD TIER. Ignore the stupid critics giving this 70s, complaining that it is too outdated. It is a faithful remake of the original and right on par with the Dead Space or Resi 2 remakes. We, the fans of the original wanted a faithful remake, not a Saints Row remake trash game. Sure, the graphics aren't top tier but it's better than replaying the original (or System Shock 2). For me personally this already is the GOTY 2023.

After my 3 hours first look stream I can simply say: it is amazing. The feeling, challenge and the citadel station has been remade perfectly, gameplay is great and the voice acting is full of despair. And on top of that, the cyberspace is just a treat. Get it, play it at night, and dive into a strangely current story with an AI without ethical restraints. 10/10.

Amazing and faithful remake without the clunky controls of the 90s. Top notch visual and creepy ambience. Being this faithful means it doesn't go easy on newcomers since you don't have a list of mission and side mission, so you have to remember what you have to do. And if you miss some key audio logs you are basically left without a clue on what to do to progress. Take it slow and explore. If you have the patience it's gonna be a great game

Love the game. But I'd suggest putting some screenshots on the store page that aren't from the alpha build! You already did the work, now show it to people!!
