It can become tedious quickly if it isnt done absolutely perfect imo.

I remember Fallout computers to be one of the implementations of such a system that I disliked most. Repetitive "hacking", then reading some text snippets that could've easily fit on a note or sth else. While it does add to the atmosphere, it doesnt add anything good to my (personal opinion ofc) gaming experience.

I can only think of two examples right now where I liked it: Deus Ex all parts(because it is just very thematically fitting) and GTA (because of the satire its actually very entertaining).
