System Shock Remake!!!!!!!11111one

I don't remember Shodan being that openly evil, but maybe I'm blurring it with SS2. Either way it looks great, definitely going to be keeping an eye on this. Clearly needs more work, but for pre-Alpha that's to be expected.
 
Hi everyone! Jason here this time to share some really important news. As some of you may have heard, we have officially switched our engine for System Shock to Unreal Engine 4. I know this seems like a risky move, and in some ways it is, but we’ve mitigated that risk by switching over early.

did not see a mention of the switch from Unity in posts above.
 
That's weird. Why? Some kind of random elitism, or you genuinely think that developing for a console will impact the PC quality?

I'm thinking back, and I reckon I only ever played SS2 (which I still have - one of the boxed games I couldn't bring myself to get rid of). So I hope this is good and I can experience it completely fresh.

No, not some kind of elitism.

I think that once they try and get the console market with these types of games, the quality always suffers.

Really hoping to be proved wrong.

I can understand the concern though I'm hopeful that in this case it won't be a big deal. I'm still excited about the game anyhow.

Btw, please can you reduce your sig down to four lines. Thanks :)
 
I keep refraining from playing the enhanced edition as the new one is being worked on, but due to the time it'll probably take to complete it, I may end up purchasing the enhanced version after all. Just a real shame you're limited to playing at 1024x768 - I assume that must be a limitation of the original engine.

I'm not surprised Kickstarter doesn't have a great track record

I wish they had just stuck with a simple reskin/make
As soon as they started saying things like "reimagining" I was worried

System Shock 2 remains one of my favourite games of all time.

If I had known about the kickstarter I would have pumped money into it, so it may have just have been luck that I wasnt aware about it at the time.

I have been pretty lucky with everything I have kickstarted so far ;

-Grim Dawn
-Original Sin 1 and 2
-Wasteland 2
-Torment : Tides
-Friday 13th (iyes....I know....)
-Pillars of Eternity 1 and 2

I do still have a few that I have pumped money into that are in the development cycle

-Bards Tale
-Ultima Underworld

so yes there is still time for me to lose some money.
