I did not know this was a thing, SS2 is one my fave FPS titles, so hopefully this will be a worthy release.

It's the arcade-ified evolution of System Shock, IMO.

It has a lot of the same mechanics and ideas; but it's all an inch deep instead of having any real depth.

As an RPG hybrid, it kinda sucks. As a straight up FPS, with action as the primary feature, compared to the contemporaries at the time is pretty good. Similar to how Fallout 4 sucks ass as an actual RPG, but is a pretty great FPS.
