Is System Shock a first person shooter or a first person adventure?
System Shock is an ARPG

What exactly makes it an RPG?
It's both. Like Metroid Prime.
belt scroller
>>3274674
XPs and U:U pedigree
>>3274757
lol, there's no experience in system shock
have you even played it?
>>3274759
Just because they're called "upgrade modules" doesn't make them not XPs
>>3274757
No XP and or leveling system. If usable items makes a game an RPG then Duke 3D is one
>>3274748
It's an open world belt scroller t b h
>>3274776
I'm not even going to have this argument for the fiftieth time. System Shock is an RPG but if you want to believe it's not and make stupid claims that make you look like an idiot go ahead and be my guest.
>>3274775
But SS doesn't have upgrade modules either.
Surely, you're not confusing SS2 with the DOS game?
>>3274789
So what RPG mechanics does it have? If getting new abilities makes a game an RPG the genre just exploded
>>3274792
I think he's referring to getting stuff like the skates
>>3274821
Saying stuff like that makes SS an rpg is almost as ridiculous as saying zelda was an rpg
>>3274829
Yeah, I don't get it. I think many people think SS1 is like the 2nd game
>/vr/ STILL hasn't played this game
>despite Enhanced Edition making it literally perfect
What's your excuse?
>>3274641
Ultima Underworld is technically a first person shooter.

>not playing the original DOS version
>playing with mouselook

>Keyboard controls

You don't need a keyboard, it's completely operable mouse-only. Every keybound command is there on the screen, in the HUD. The only time you need a keyboard is to enter your name at the start screen.
>>3275512
Enjoy wasting more time having to adjust the camera with the keyboard instead of just moving your mouse around naturally.

the game's paced for that
it's not that bad
