What kind of a game is this?
is it a very linear game? or a half open game with exploration and few side quest as Deus Ex? or a very open game with lot of side quest and exploration like cyberpunk?

It's exploratory, but iterative. You have to explore to open up new levels. Eventually you can explore quite a lot but in the beginning your reach and abilities are limited by your experience.

It's a game that is not like cooking companions. But I still recommend cooking companions. Incredible story.

Its a nonlinear sci-fi dungeon crawler set in a labyrinthine space station. Once you discover each of the levels you can move freely between them. There is no quest log. You have to listen to audio logs and read notes to figure out what to do (Apparently on easy mode there are quest markers).

It's kind of like Bioshock or Dead Space but more open ended, more puzzles and potentially more confusing to navigate. The inventory and hotbar system is basically the same as Deus Ex.

It can more closely be compared to Bioshock than Deus Ex, it's not so much an RPG but still has a focus on map exploration
I've also heard System Shock 1 compared to Metroidvanias in the way that you upgrade your cyberware arsenal allowing you to access more areas that you previously couldn't
Regardless, the original was a pretty big step for the kart racing genre and this remake is said to contain some far more accurate jiggle physics than what was possible in 1994
