I'm considering finishing playing System Shock, after all this time. I've probably only ever played the first bits, or barely at all (it's a wee bit hard to recall).

I really don't think I've ever seen a technology that is so singularly effective at taking a pre-existing form of rot or brokenness in institutions and lighting it on fire.

![don’t have much room to ponder over the result.” Even when time
was not constrained, knowledge workers often lacked incentives to
engage in critical thinking when it is perceived as not part of their
job responsibilities (11/319). P232, who used ChatGPT to write
the company’s marketing campaigns: “verification and rewriting is
handled by another part of the team. The team is able to verify, sense
check and modify the content of the landing pages as they see fit.”
Ability barriers. Participants face obstacles to enacting critical
thinking, specifically in verifying and improving GenAI output,
even if they are otherwise motivated to do so. Participants report
barriers to inspect AI responses (58/319), such as not possessing
enough domain knowledge. As P290 noted: “in cases where you
don’t know the specific topic [e.g., translation and math problems],
it’s hard to determine whether the AI is giving the correct answer or
not.”
Even if knowledge workers identify limitations in the GenAI
output, they encounter barriers in revising queries and improving the response (72/319). For example, P239 received negative
feedback from colleagues for a document that ChatGPT helped
her write, but “I’m not sure how I could have improved the text that
ChatGPT wrote.” Also, GenAI tools can be “stubborn” and do not
follow through with users’ revised prompts, as P208 shared when
asking GenAI to fix an error in his code: “it repeatedly recommended
the wrong solution despite asking for a different suggestion.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:66lbtw2porscqpmair6mir37/bafkreieftxm3guillezg7poxpfj64qadrcg72rhyttu7nro3ws6ydu5vli@jpeg)

It's a shame the game just doesn't leave mechanics for opinionated choices. Agent 47 only shows emotion within cutscenes. That's even more obvious during Death of the Family (the pale attempt at Columbo).
Sigh. I love these games, but this is the most imperfect side of them.

There are a few exceptions to the "always a piece of shit" but the onus is on the player to digest that (No dialogue from Agent 47). One that comes to mind is Ljudmila Vetrova's motivation in The Last Resort can be revealed (overheard convos) as self-preservation from a violent husband.

I'm hoping this place gets good traction, at least more than that other site it's intending to replace.
And be friendly. Significantly friendlier than that other unmentionably-mentioned site.
