When you said that, you reminded me of a COD knife...

I gave up on System Shock 2. It seems that even with the 3d, the elements just don't work. I like the Thief parts, hate the SS1 stuff. Every time you want to use an item you have to go into some weird HUD that breaks the flow. The repetition still exists. I found myself liking it for a bit, but it is starting to get dull and thus I am coming back to Thief.

It was not in vain though. It is interesting to see how SS2 pretty much introduced certain things to the Dark Engine that were later used in Thief 2. I was highly familiarized with certain enemy types due to them being very comparable. Still, Thief 2 did it better.

Found out how to do an overhead strike in SS2, showing one more thing they got from Thief. A sword is more fun than a wrench.
