for me, it's having some kind of gargoyle or angel/demon statues on the edge of your HUD holding up your health and mana

System Shock having a psi meter that didn't actually measure anything relevant to the game was peak UI design.
That rules.
the 1st one (OG or remake?) or the 2nd one?
cause i don't remember there being any psi stuff on the 1st game. maybe a bunch of lines on the top-left (some of the lines were relevant, like one of them is affected based on how much stamina you had left)
One of these was marked psi (EDIT: I misremembered, it's actually labelled "Chi brain waves"), it didn't measure anything and most people just toggle off. In the remake of System Shock you don't start off with it active but it can be found close to where you wake up after the intro, it still doesn't measure anything.
