Haha, like System Shock 2?! :P I still need to retry SS1, but with its
remake this time. I couldn't stand the controls in the original DOS
release. Loved the remake's tech demo years ago on my work's fancy high
end lappy (shh!) in 2016.

There's always the "System Shock Enhanced Edition", which is the
classic game except... well, enhanced with higher resolutions and QOL
features like WASD.

Hmm, better controls? I need a demo. :P


Although the original was _almost_ WASD already. You looked around
with the mouse and moved with the keyboard; it's just that the keys
you used were the arrow keys (which was the style at the time).
Although the game could be (almost) entirely controlled by mouse,
since it re-used the "Ultima Underworld" control-scheme too.

I'm not so endeared with the 2023 remake. It played too closely to the
original, trying to balance mondern sensibilities with the old-school
style of the original game, and doing favors to neither. Of all the
versions, I feel the 2015 "Enhanced Edition" is the best to play.

Hmm, maybe I will like it but its graphics are soooooooo old. ;P
