GOG has a wide selection of retro games not available on Steam.
And if you're that adamant on remaining technologically ignorant, GOG is your only option to download these games.

For a game so well regarded it's insane that UUW 1 and 2 haven't had some sort of source port or approximation with decent controls and resolution by now.
>inb4 inevitable fag who says it's fine or tries to call me a zoomer or whatever
I'm nearly 40 and played 90s games in their day, and had a PC in 94. Shit feels awful to play. Don't tell me that Unity Exporter thing's worth half a shit either. It isn't.

So your saying there's no easy way to convert this half ass mod for UW1 and 2?

Great, guess I'll have to go for Unity ports or manual DOSBox remapping then.
