Probably already been scooped in one of the SR5 threads that I stopped reading a while back, but in case I haven't been, there's this blog entry that discusses design philosophy. Enjoy.

I am slightly more optimistic for 5th than I was prior to reading the blog. My complaints with 4th have been not enough grit and cyberpunk (in my opinion, only). They state these as goals, so I will reserve judgement and be less pessimistic.

But yeah, I agree with the concern on the "Heroes" part, I like my Shadowrun heroes to be very, very much anti-heroes.
