I knew at that moment that "shit just got real," and there was a genuine feeling of dread and terror in me as I witnessed it.Įven then, if you have 30 cyber modules to spend, is it better to invest in a single, higher-level stat/skill, or to spread those cyber modules among three lower-level stats/skills that require fewer modules per level, or to wait a little longer to stockpile even more so you can put the final point into maxing your primary stat/skill? Some skills are more innately useful than others, while others will be more or less useful depending on your desired playstyle and your immediate needs it's up to you to figure out how best to spend these modules and live with the consequences, because there are no re-specs whatsoever. You kind of have to expect that she'll show up at some point, since her face is on the game's cover and an intro cinematic reminds you of what she did in the first game, but even knowing that she was going to get involved in the story, I was still shocked and surprised at the way the twist presented itself. I'm trying to avoid spoilers, because even though this game is 16 years old, I think it's still worth playing if you haven't already, and this moment, when SHODAN's presence is revealed, is one of the singular most-memorable moments in all of gaming. The EMP Rifle deals no damage to the Nodes floating around the Brain of the Many nor the Brain itself, and hitting the Nodes with the Laser Rapier could be a tough job, forcing one to use the weak Laser Pistol.What people remember most about the story is the dramatic twist that comes past the halfway point, when it's revealed that SHODAN - the artificial intelligence responsible for the destruction of Citadel Station in the first game, the villain of System Shock 1 who was trying to enslave and destroy all of humanity - has gotten into the Von Braun's AI system.Both the Laser Pistol and the EMP Rifle are less practical than their Standard Weapon counterparts.This synergizes with Energy Weapons quite well, as they cover each other's weaknesses.

The Laser Rapier and Laser Pistol only deal half damage against fully Annelid creatures, including Arachnids and Psi Reavers.They cannot deal bonus damage against purely organic enemies (unlike Standard or Heavy weapons, which can utilize anti-personnel or incendiary ammo).Energy Weapons are markedly less effective against organic enemies.There are no Recharge Stations on the UNN Rickenbacker, and could put the player into trouble if one is not prepared for the situation.The Laser Rapier can deal damage to the boss, while the Wrench and Crystal Shard cannot.All Energy Weapons deal a lot of damage to the final boss.The Laser Rapier can be a quick replacement of the Wrench.Energy Weapons inflict a large amount of bonus damage to mechanical enemies, especially the EMP Rifle, which can take down any droid in no time.As long as the player can find such a Station in the area, these weapons have an infinite amount of ammunition. Ranged Energy Weapons use electrical energy as ammunition, and can be recharged at any Recharger Station.Specializing in Energy Weapons Advantages Some weapons require minimum statistics or skill levels to equip and use.

For example, when a combat skill reaches level 2, weapons that required level 1 will gain a 15% extra damage, and weapons that required level 3-6 cannot get any bonus, of course.
