System Shock 2 Trivia Quiz

Answer: In the art terminals

The reason that the code is hidden there is because that way the Many won't find it. To quote the log, "I don't think the worms'll spot this. I don't figure they got much of an interest in the great masters."

Answer: Ah. Excellent choice, if I do say so myself.

There is a similar statement, but instead of saying excellent, the protocol droid says "marvellous". "May I interest you in any of our personal care products?" is said when the protocol droid spots you; "Aaawww, I've driven a client away. I'll likely be downgraded" when you run away and "If my service was unsatisfactory, please note my ID number" when you shoot it.

Answer: Cyborg Midwives

The cyborg midwives are instead created through surgical and cybernetic means, with an implant at the base of the spine providing most control.

Answer: Crystal Shard

The Crystal Shard, unfortunately, is the only real useful weapon in the Exotic weapon category. You cannot actually wield the Lead Pipe at all; however, the Hybrids do wield it. Because of the additional requirements in terms of buying new skills, many players prefer to use the Laser Rapier, even though it is a weaker weapon.

Answer: 45100

This is a reference back to the original "System Shock", whose first passcode was also 451. This in turn was a reference back to Ray Bradbury, who inspired the number.

Answer: 3 nanites

Querying the soda can will bring up some of its (ingame) history, including how the first major Corporation War was the result of conflict between two soda makers. The soda can itself is fairly useless, although it can be drunk to restore one point of health.

Answer: One of her processing components was ejected along with a garden grove pod

SHODAN still escapes again at the end of "System Shock 2", taking over the body of Rebecca, an escaped human. The garden grove that was ejected also contained SHODAN's biological experiments; this is where the Many originate from.

Answer: Deck 4 : Operations Sector A

This is a small area where you meet Polito face to face, or so you are led to believe. In fact, you meet SHODAN, who then explains that she pretended to be Polito in order to build trust, and that your cybernetic rig is a result of her doing.
