System shock 2 - Pacifist's approach - Episode 10

I decided to keep HQ option, even though it takes ages to upload on youtube. New episode 3 days after episode 9... Enjoy

Episode 10 takes us to cramped corridors of Hydroponics deck, where I need to find toxin A vials to unchoke the elevator shaft. But one of the main obstacles that I need to overcome are not enemies ... but a single glass window ..

Today :

- Mr. Miller's plot for his own mechanic harem.
- Monkeys disposal technique
- Dancing with Midwife
- Solving glass window problem

you know what? i think this game is the inspiration for dead space, its almost all alike

[ShephardReborn]

@dasdasist There are few similarities, the most obvious for System shock 2 players is the Hydroponics deck mission of killing the organic matter growing on walls and affecting the air quality. Basically Dead Space used the same premise up to the point that the player's job is to find a special chemical and place it in environmental regulators, just like in System shock 2. Additionally there's the "restore the engine power mission" and also based off a similar one in that game

why midwife cannot harm you while you're ducking?

[ShephardReborn]

@ale9z In non-modified version of System shock 2 - a.k.a "vanilla", midwifes lack an attack animation that would enable them to reach the player with their melee moves. Some unofficial patches and extensions barrow hybrids animation scripts, making this exploit (almost) obsolete.

The ghost scene isn't that good... Erin's voice sounds silly and not like someone in lethal danger.

[ShephardReborn]

@JudgeDeadd Aside from two or three professionals, most of the voice talents in this game are the designers themselves - complete amateurs. I'd say they did pretty well, for today's standards when you have Hollywood stars doing voice-overs for video games it may sound silly, for but for 1999, it was pretty good.

You are a very inteligent guy did you know that xD

Miller reminds me of Steinman from Bioshock.

[TheMoi]

@dasdasist EA owns the rights to the System Shock franchise and Dead Space was called System Shock 3 when it was still early in development. It turned out a pretty good game but it's a good thing they renamed it because it is in no way a System Shock game. It feels like a spiritual successor taking a different approch than Bioshock.

On a space station being chased by Pogo The Monkey...

@HuskyVerbatim Well. He is not the one killing them. They a re just idiots.

[HuskyVerbatim]

I don't think you can still call yourself a pacifist if you're driving monkeys to suicide.
