Not parent, but because the control scheme was terrible ? It's a game that was made when advanced on the edge control system like mouse look were not really invented yet for FPS, and its "cyberworld" was horrible. I once got blocked inside a tetris game played in my in-game implant and couldn't figure out how to get back to the main ui, it was way too advanced in ideas for the controls it had. Also the graphics are really showing their age, frankly.

The original is on gog, including an "enhanced" version that improve it vastly, and I love this game with a passion, have been since its release, but it's a horrible game to manipulate in 2023. Given this remake is faithful to the core ideas of the game, and most reviews says so, it's a no brainer which one you should play.
