In a scene-setting intro, the character you play – an unnamed hacker living in a dystopian future city called New Atlanta – is arrested, transported to a space station called the Citadel Station and ordered to hack into SHODAN, the AI that controls the station, and remove its ethical protocols. Again, it doesn’t feel as thrillingly fresh and innovative as that of the original game, but there’s a very good reason for that: every single element of its gameplay has been copied by several other games over the last three decades.
Gameplay-wise, though, System Shock is beyond criticism.
There are other issues you soon encounter, such as the vaguely comical way in which the mutants you frequently have to dispatch lurch and stumble about, as well as their distinctly rudimentary character design.
