For me it perpetuated all of the horrible design decisions that I hated in the original. At least I finished this one, but it was a slog and most sections of the game were not enjoyable for me. For me, System Shock was always a game with great ideas and great character but horrendous execution. Even back then the people touting the game always seemed like they were talking more about the atmosphere of the game than its actual gameplay. In that same year, we were playing Doom II, TIE Fighter, Warcraft, X-COM and Master of Magic. I left out Arena because like System Shock, it was also super jank, especially on release. System Shock was a niche game that most gamers only discovered years later.
