Except that no one played System Shock. While it's the father of Bioshock, Bioshock was the game to influence the industry.

Sure, no one played System Shock 1 or 2.

System Shock sold less than 200,000 copies. It was enough to keep the dev afloat, but ultimately still wasn't profitable.

System Shock 2 sold even worse, and was a flop by pretty much every metric.

The newer re-releases on Steam and GOG have done ok, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation we were having.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
