Seems like none of you buggers are talking about it, but it just came out.

"Very Positive" on Steam, and since we all know that 98% of games being "Very Positive" on Steam totally means it's a legit score, yeah. Totally legit.

If SF6 wasn't releasing in 10 minutes consider picking it up.

Sadly circumstance wasn't on its side.

Is this PC only? If so then I won’t be playing it. Don’t currently have a gaming PC and don’t have any plans on getting one anytime soon.

I'm not in the mood to play on PC, so unless they bring it to console I might skip it, at least for now.

Completed SS:E with the Steam controller. Worked amazingly well.

Assuming it will work more or less the exact same on Steam Deck.

Go get a Steam Deck. That's what it's made for.

As for System Shock, I'm waiting for reviews and if they turn out to be legit, I'll consider a purchase on GoG instead on Steam.

@davillain: Would rather get that ROG Ally or whatever it’s called. Not really looking to buy one right yet though.

@Archangel3371: Asus Ally Rog is a good pick...but I would wait for a deep discount though as you aren't in a rush for it anyway.

@davillain: with the increase in competition who knows a better one might release by the time he's ready for one.

@Pedro: @davillain: Yeah, I’m in no rush for one right now. Competition in this area is really picking up so I’ll wait and see what happens.

It's on my wishlist for sure but there are just too many games on PC right now and I've bought like 20 games in the past month or two. Seriously I kind of have a problem right now.

The worst part? I keep going back to my old games of Cities: Skylines and Satisfactory lol.

Age of Wonders 4 has taken up a good chunk of my time, though. Nothing like a nice TBS.

I was thinking about getting it, but the demo left me the impression that this is the same old game from like 30 years with a new coat of paint, better controls, new UI, and the all annoying things from a game that old. So for now a pass.

Some of the puzzles look extremely tedious, and those cyberspace segments look boring as hell. Looks like I'd enjoy about 60% of the game or so, so I think I'll pass on it.

I might, but have had the original and SS2 in my backlog for years, plus Prey. So, I might not.

So I played more. this time more than Demo.

Its amazing. very old school and what we get today how broken, unfinished, dumbed down AAA game. this little indie game put insane amount of depth in game.

most of complain is theres no objective marker. however theres no clear objective that what to do and you have to figure out yourself either listeing to audios or looking into map unexplored areas.

In System shock 2, there was clear object what to do however you have to figure by yourself.

not a bad design. in fact its most creative design game to be released in years. as most of gamers used to of playing hand holding open world or linear titles.

You stated there are no clear objectives. That is bad design.
