Speaking of.. anyone played the remake? Thinking of picking it up.
Yup! I thought it was a really fun game. I didn't play the original so I cannot comment on adherence to the source. But as a standalone game I really enjoyed my time with it.

After the System Shock 1 Remake getting such rave reviews I was hoping the second game would get the same treatment. Are they not remaking the sequel?
I was hoping this, too. I know the SS1 Remake had a long history of scope creep, so maybe they didn't have the appetite to tackle the same thing with SS2.
But, even if they took what they had with the SS1 engine and build the same thing with SS2, it would have been much much better, and not take nearly as long as the SS1 remake. They already have most of the assets and interfaces built.

Yeah, the remake was really good, but I'll warn you, it's pretty hard. Like, frustratingly hard. And if I remember you can't change the difficulty mid-game, so you may just want to play it on easier difficulty.
I think the only hard part is trying to figure out what you need to do next, which a walkthrough can help with, if you're stuck. The combat and puzzles are challenging, but it wasn't overly difficult, IMO.

I really enjoyed it. First game in a while that could scratch that Prey-itch.
I feel so heartbroken that I never got a sequel to Prey
