Sexy. Did have to do anything to get it to run? Last time I tried I was able to get it to work except for the videos, but I don't remember what I did.
it's unreal engine, the game works perfectly fine on modern machines (except that screenshots are going to be very dark regardless of brightness settings). In order to make videos play you only need to install accompanying video codecs (iirc it's a quicktime video).

Well im playing it on a Win98 machine (pentium III 933mhz, 512mb ram, geforce Ti4200 64mb) so it works out of the box. Not sure how it is on modern systems. But PCgamingWIKI is always a great resource for information on getting games to work.

A.I.M.2 Clan Wars can have some real tubular end of the world kind of battles going on from time to time.

Is there anything in the game besides shooting in largely empty environments?
I'm not sure what you mean, a big part of the demo is the traversal and finding a good route to your target while trying to survive. There will be more RPG elements later on but right now you can climb around, those meters to the right are for light and sound, so you can stealth around too. The place also isn't empty, it's full of fucking guards lurking in the shadows waiting to assrape you if you let your guard down. You can find some secret stuff here and there. You can also talk to people, trade with them and get a submission. So if you have something specific in mind then I can address that, but if you want to put it like that then you could, just as you could describe Thief as sneaking around in largely empty environments too. That's what you do, but there's more to it than that. Like the hacking minigame where you mash buttons to guess the password before a timer runs out. Or how much fun you can have with the powers you have and the mantling mechanic.

In LGS fashion you can even find a basketball. So I don't know what you mean by that question if you are aware that it is potato Deus Ex. Seems pretty self-explanatory to me. What else would you do besides those usual things, getting intel, getting into places, killing people, sneaking around, exploring, this is what you do right? It's an immersive sim. If you encounter a locked door you can put an explosive barrel against it and blow it away from the hinges. You can throw something into a dark spot away from you to get guards to investigate it and move away from their patrol route.

There are no long scripted cutscenes like in CP77 and you can't get laid if that's what you're asking.

It's like Gothic/Risen where first chapter is filled with content - reached 30lvl, finised at 40lvl, while other two chapters are lackluster and can be finished in one sitting.

And final boss was turret section, meh.
Some nice scenery here and here.
They released HD version few years later but I don't see difference tbh.

Cloudpunk is a cyberpunk story in a vertical-driving delivery sim with pretty fantastic architecture, and some fun street art.

Endzone is post-nuclear Banished with impressive rain effects. (Though the shimmer of the running water and wet surfaces is somewhat diluted by being captured in a static image.)

Rift Wizard is a coffebreak roguelike with some of the coolest spells I've seen in a while.

MotherMachinae Holy shit that looks fucking bad
It was released in 2010, what did you expected? Some games back then used bloom and other effects to cover things players should not witness. And this game?
This game is bloated with bloom-like effect to cover a LOT of issues, including holes in geometry and whatnot.
Had to use modified .ini file to disable most (all?) of them. Game runs fine not matter what you do, but your GPU radiators would go full speed all the time and it was annoying.

Oh, I mean it looks like a bad game, not graphically bad (though it is ugly, too).

how does this game still manage to be scary with this graphics

Old graphics from that era are more scary than modern ultrarealistic graphics because of uncanny valley effect and still leaving some details to the imagination.
Plus good sound design and the fact that after 5 minutes you dont notice the graphics as you get absorbed into the game.
