System Shock 2
The System Shock series highly influenced first-person shooter design with its combination of FPS, RPG and immersive sim elements. It starts with choosing a Career, each with different skills and bonuses. Weapon-users favored the Marine while psionics would become OSA Agents and hackers enlisted in the Navy. Throughout the game, you’re presented with several potential solutions to problems, whether it’s being sneaky or hacking machines. Various Cyber Modules and researching enemies to improve damage against them (while also unlocking certain weapons) also go a long way as you garner audio logs and learn more about the world.
