Like System Shock 1 this game is also super sick, I can see an argument this is better but I'm not so sure. It has a lot of the same qualities, and they are quality. I personally don't really care for the hive mind angle but I do like how they re-establish SHODAN and create a new antagonist at the same time. The sandbox is also worse I think. I feel like I'm missing out on fun stuff because of how the game operates, repeat playthroughs would obviously solve that but then I don't have the real fun which is exploring a space station knowing that anything could be around the next corner. Excellent game despite and the options the game does allow you are plenty fun, I just want more system shock! The music also bangs but not as hard as 1 imo!!
