D. Hypos

Learn about the different types of hypos in System Shock (Remake), including Anti-Radiation, Anti-Toxin, Medical, Psi, Speed Booster, and Strength Booster, and how they can help you survive.

Hey there! Let's talk about the different hypos you'll find scattered around the Von Braun. These little injectors can be lifesavers, so knowing what each one does is pretty key to surviving this mess.

Anti-Radiation Hypo

This one's a lifesaver when you've been exposed to nasty radiation. Dr. Delacroix knew the ship had issues, especially with coolant leaks, so she made sure these ChemCal rad hypos were stocked up. They speed up the breakdown of hazardous stuff in your system. Best used right after you get zapped by radiation.

Just brace yourself for the slightly aggressive needle – TriOp's lawyers apparently saved it from a recall years ago.

Psi Hypo

Need a boost to your psychic abilities? The Psi Booster hypo is what you're looking for. It's packed with stuff to calm your nerves, boost your focus, and get your circulation going. A single dose will give you an extra 30 psi points, up to your max. Just be aware, the Surgeon General warns these can be habit-forming, and the manufacturer even made them impossible to duplicate with the Molecular Duplication psi skill to keep their monopoly.

Speed Booster

Need to get somewhere *fast*? The Vita-Hyb SpeedBoost hypo will double your movement speed for a solid twenty seconds. While it's apparently popular for some risky street racing game called
