Nobody says that because Romero's Ion Storm and Spector's Ion Storm were two different companies.
Nah, they were the same company. There was just Romero's wing, Tom Hall's wing and Spector's wing. I know for a fact that a handful of people worked on all of these games together, so those weren't all different teams at all. The main designers were different, but a lot of people were shared, who made textures and models for example and also it shared the same voice actors too.
Their first game was Dominion, then came Daikatana (which turned to be sadly the game that didn't sell), Anachronox and Deus Ex.
But don't say nobody says that, I have read and heard some of those somethingawful posts and videos regarding Daikatana. They often mentioned this with Deus Ex. But then again what can I expect from them.
As for Daikatana being on N64 (responding to someone else mentioning that), I know that, I played all the way through that port and it was rather terrible, it seems it inherited the slow gameplay from Deus Ex too, but the port was done by Kemco (one of the worst game making companies ever btw, known for some really infamous titles) and they really ****ed up some of the levels or made exclusive ones which replaced the standard ones. They tended to suck, except for one level IIRC.
The controls were decent and menu was simple, but that's as far as the praise goes in Kemco's port. It used like one music for entire episode etc too, so it became very repetitive.
There was also Game Boy Color port by Kemco too, I didn't play that one but seen videos of it, for some reason it is being praised as the best Daikatana port but I disagree very much, because they managed to **** up the dialogues and story even more and imo it just sucks, if not more than the N64 port. But people are shallow idiots anyway, they can't tell a real quality even if it bit them in the face.
Ans as for System Shock 2, I never played it either, but graphics are not my major complain, it's like if you were comparing me to those graphic whores. But everything makes the game in the end, including graphics, but I don't judge it based on the graphics, gameplay is more important to me and I found Deus Ex boring, end of story.
