Casual conversation thread, post whatever. (Number 14 woo)

i have morrowind filed away in my steam wishlist. i dont know about system shock 2 because i wont have nostalgia power because i never played it back in the day yet also have absorbed thru osmosis moderate knowledge of the game over the years so neither will it hold surprise power. recently completed a run of baldurs gate and had a fairly good time. hurm.

i always feel like im missing something when discussing old games. we all know the "big famous names" the goodgames every nerd thread talks about, but so much time has passed that overlooked rarer gems may be doomed to remain overlooked

I feel like System Shock 2 holds up well, coming from someone that played it for the first time only recently

One of The things I liked about it is there's a lot to be gained from learning your way around the station. 
I plotted out the best paths for avoiding enemies, created caches where I left excess ammo and items, and would cross reference chemical manifests for different floors to further the research tiers.

Made me feel very immersed in the environment compared to something like BioShock
