is this worth buying for a Thief noob? never played anyone of the series, but have always been curious to try it
lawl Quake pushing System Shock 2 into obscurity. You poor wretch.
brain fart, meant Doom 2 lol
lawl Doom 2 pushing System Shock 2 into obscurity even worse, you poorer wretch.
Now the real question, why doesn't GOG have SS2
System Shock 2 / NewDark engine

Now the real question, why doesn't GOG have SS2, am I seriously going to be forced to torrent it in order to play this mod? Also should I get the GOG version of Thief 2 or Steam for this patch?

It's probably in dispute with some publisher or law firm. IP rights in the game industry are a bit of a mess.
Ding ding ding!
An insurance company in Michigan owns the IP rights and apparently are demanding way more money that SS is worth to any dev or publisher who are willing to buy. Till that changes, no SS for anyone outside of the original boxed copies.

I wasn't into PC gaming back when SS2 was big. I really would like to catch up and play it after all I've heard about it and after this thread.
The earlier Thief games? Same story. I liked Deadly Shadows. How have the older games fared age wise? Could I get into them?
Whoa, whoa, what?
When did EA give up the rights? Ken Levine said they would not sell it to him, so he gave up trying to acquire it. What is this insurance company I've never heard of?

Thief 1/2 are amongst some of the best games ever made, period.
There has never been a stealth'em'up anywhere near as good as the Thief, if you're a fan of this kind of thing then despite how old and crap they look they're still well worth playing.

What all is included with the System Shock 2 ninja patch?

Thief 2 has a fucking fantastic story. You are able to buy equipment. It is not an RPG. It is a heist FPS action game focused on breaking into places and pillaging them as you follow the storyline. Literally 80% of the missions in the game are the kind of epic legend shit you will never forget, and the other 20% are extremely solid. Play on the hardest difficulty for the proper experience (and access to all the objectives and secrets).
Funny thing is that I personally feel that if Assassins Creed was more based around stealth and enemy's could kill you easier, it would be one of the best games/series of all times.
I play System Shock 2 on a yearly basis.
No other game gets that attention from me. Still one of the greatest game ever made, period.
We had a big thread for it a while ago, let me see if I can find it....
That right there was impossible in dromed. IMPOSSIBLE. This was a dev, just incredible. (oh yea, yay for printscreen, lol)from ttlg.com forums said:There's some buried gold in the new cam_ext.cfg file. I found a "d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay" setting that lets you set the HUD overlay to any "virtual" resolution you want. So now you can set the game to modern resolutions without having to bust out a magnifying glass to read the HUD text.
Also, screenshots now go into a "screenshots" folder. And the PrintScreen key actually works for taking them. Neat!"
It's starting early this year!same here, I do a ritual play through once a year.
Huh?Square
