   Getting old. Got lost several times on the Storage level in System Shock Remake. And I still have Engineering to look forward to. 😅

     It's funny how when freed from the confines of its original archaic controls System Shock is very obviously not an immersive sim by today's standards, but very much a classic-style dungeon crawler with a pinch of survival horror mechanics.

     @anthk I know. I've learned to play with original controls after playing the port. I think it sort of adds to the overall experience. In a panic it's *really* easy to fuck up, so that's another plus for the whole survival horror thing.
