Unbelievable remake of the original
Absolutely phenomenal game, and somehow they kept the original level design mostly intact from the original game. This game is truly a masterpiece.

Runs too hot
Even under low settings and VSync this game cooks my computer. Got a MSI Raider GE78HX 13VH with 32 GB of ram, M.2 2 TB hard drive, I9 13th Gen and a 4080 Nvidia graphics card..... this is ridiculous. Hope others are farring better.

Faithful remake for a low price
Worth playing. Even if you haven't played the original.

OK, but frustrating
While I never played the original game, as I found it too old and clunky when I tried to some 20 years after it came out, I am, a huge fan of System Shock 2 and have played it several times. This game has some very good reviews, mostly it seems from people who’d played it before. For me the earlier levels lacked suspense and tension due to complex maps combined with the sense of what you’re supposed to be doing too vague. You’re given several objectives early on and it’s not clear how you’re supposed to address them, especially as you’re offered access to multiple levels early on. I realise people say you have to think and write things down, and I’ve no objection to that, but there comes a point when any attempt to feel really part of the story gives way to a frustration at the complexity of simply navigating your way around some of the maps without much clue as to exactly what you’re supposed to be doing. Plus the sound design isn’t as menacing as System Shock 2 which, even without the music (which I always turn off) has some really menacing sounds throughout which really get under your skin. When it’s good though it is very enjoyable, with a good story, range of levels, puzzles, enemies and guns, although in the latter case you can only carry so many at one time (something which meant I was without quite an important one in the latter stages of the game). It also contains some aspects I really dislike in games, including radiation poisoning and also too many boss fights, which I find irritating at the best of times. To try to enjoy it more I did end up using a walkthrough at times, just to get me on to the next phase and navigate the more annoying parts. I actually didn’t bother finishing it once I realised I was just in a realm of the final boss fights. But if those things don’t bother you so much and perhaps you play with settings on level 1 it will be a good game. I just hope these guys don’t touch System Shock 2, it’s a classic as it is.
