>>
>>739427496
On the contrary, I feel yhat they petfrctly realized the original artistic vision of SS1 with an autistic attention to detail.
It has only two flaws in my opinion:
>1. The soundtravk got "lo-fi'd"
>2. The Btidge looks less "meaty nightmare" and more "Warhammer 40k NeoGothic"
>>
>>739426379
I 100% agree that the System Shock remake is good, even as someone who tries to play the original version of the game over the remake, I always go for the System Shock remake because I found the control scheme and gameplay for the original to be very cumbersome, and unfun.
>>
>>739427804
Its so good. Have you played the other Shock games? Rank them?
>>
>>739428062
1. BioShock 1 + 2
2. System Shock Remake

>I can't wrap my head around it's gameplay
Don't worry, neither did the devs back then lmao. And it only gets worse as it goes on.
At the end the few redeeming parts are some monster designs maybe and the music if it isn't blarging a shrill ringtone as bass into your ears for that one song.
Writing and atmosphere was alright at the start but it just goes downhill. SHODAN literally emailing you step by step instructions on how to penetrate her fortress is a comically bad nosedive.

System Shock remake being good was honestly a surprise considering they actually changed some things around since almost every time the gameplay ends up worse for it
Instead they made cyberspace and the hacking games actually playable and the music is rather pleasant to listen to

How fuckign hard is it to make something and not cut corners like 99% of devs now do even with remakes?
>>
>>739428601
Anon, that is pure 80's sci fi neon with a bit of hackers.
Spector loved it because they coulnt do back then since colored lightmaps was exclusive to id software.
My only beef with the remake is just the soundtrack, but that can be fixed with the gravis ultrasound mod.
>>
>>739428601
The original is a surprisingly bright game apart from the few rooms they intended you to flip a switch or use a flashlight.
Oh yeah one really cool thing about it is that you can doubleclick on every tile and object and get shown its name.
>>
>>739428247
>to know it is many times better than the original
Utterly destroyed the original music in favor of ambience
Slow movement speed
Weapon speed is slower and you need to go through lengthy reload animations
Cut weapons from the game
Cut some of the enemies from the game
Utterly fucked up the art style of the original making everything monochromatic and even removed the cool organic growth from the walls
Mandatory cyberspace segments just for the sake of padding
Made puzzles lengthier, not harder just to further the game length
Turned Edward Diego into a cartoon villain just evil for the sake of it
Cut functionality of a number of gadgets and removed timed explosive charges
Added a crappy currency and vendor system tied to continually scrapping items
Added weapon mods which can actually reduce the effectiveness in some cases
Scrapped the intro cutscene for an absolutely terrible hacker apartment and Diego office segment where the hacker just "toggles" SHODAN to her evil status instead of spending days recoding her
Didn't include the MFD minigames
Expanded levels with boring storage areas or in the case of the groves completely changed them to be large areas of empty space with a couple of enemies scattered around
Completely misunderstood the tone of the game turning it into a slow movement corridor shooter instead of a fast paced thrill ride where the hacker skates throughout the station blasting cyborgs left and right

They blew it

It is bright nowadays because modern screens + not running on DOS.
Is the same shit with Daggerfall, the game was darker due to DOS colormap shit.
SS needs a DFU treatment, the old game would look great witth colored lightmaps and proper dynamic lightning.

1. Unc is a state of mind much like being a boomer and being unable to let go of the past even when certain parts of it is objectively inferior.
2. REmake mogged the original RE1 and your "muh color" rooms argument is the only thing you have. The artistic and graphic design shined bright in REmake unlike all the remake trends it spawned where art design was lost.

This is a crazy complaint especially in an era where most games have way too little contrast to their visuals.

The average for the game (considerably longer than its original release) has been System Shock portable and System Shock Enhanced, both with mouselook. I mean, I played both System Shock and Doom in 1994 with a keyboard. I was there, I have the Unc status to prove it. Would I play either of them with a keyboard only ever again? Absolutely not and you won't see Church or Spector or Carmack or Romero play those games with a keyboard only ever again. These are the standard ways to play those games and have been for decades.

It was almost one by technicality.
Reimagining sort of thing. Included a bunch of C47's best missions but completely improved. Not to mention just a higher ratio of good missions in general. It's not considered to be a remake because the storyline is far different and literally starts the game at the ending of the first.
But it was a creative way of improving the original.

None of that really matters. The webm is still showcasing a game in a way it was never meant to played. The original game was a slow trek through a derelict space station and the remake is also trying to capture that.

I don't actually like the remake that much for full clarity
>>
>>739428209
do you seriously have to see those all those wiggly animations again every time you start a new game or when you acquire these items/open doors??

>>739429002
What do you mean ehh? it's better in everyway without betraying the original, it even had online which was rare at the time. It was meant to be the first fighter with online but delays pushed it back. First place was MK Armaggedon and DOA2U 2nd
