Having never played the original, this is a great way to experience its strong suits - exploring the station without handholding, relying on the player to make connections and understand how to proceed. Combat is greatly enhanced by juggling different ammo types and other resources (though in the end there's probably too much ammo around), and every new weapon feels like a great addition to your arsenal. Biggest issues are some excessive backtracking on certain station levels (a strategically placed door locked from one side could have saved a lot of wasted time on the executive level) and managing the recycling of junk items is tedious and ultimately pointless - just scrap everything, and you'll have more money than you can spend.
