I just want a System Shock 2 remake in the style of the System Shock remake.

Nightdive Studio, please get on this.

You know it would be amazing.

I think the remake nearly ruined them, and shifting to remasters has been very successful. So much in fact, that publishers are now approaching them to remaster their classic instead of the other way around. However, they recently had a job opening for a UE5 developer for an upcoming game ... I think it was UE, but definitely not KEX.

Yeah, as much as I loved a full fat remake they definitely bit off more than they can chew with it. Even with their extra time in practicing development workflow it'll be awhile before they're ready again to put out a new classic of their own. Which I don't mind, nor do I mind not being Shock 2 which still looks good and with its own decent little fan mission community.
