Are there limits to the dystopia? Options Track this topic Email this topic Print this topic Download this topic Subscribe to this forum Display Modes Outline Switch to: Standard Switch to: Linear+

So I'm writing runs for my new group, and it occurs to me that some of the potential outcomes are almost ridiculously evil; bodies stacked like cordwood at the hands of entirely pragmatic sociopaths trying to incite racial hatred, for instance. This causes me to wonder if, in all the dystopian goodness that makes Shadowrun so fun, other groups assign limits on just how disturbing things can get, whether as actual in-game events or as distant specters used for hypothetical, illustrative purposes only.

Thus I ask: do you limit or otherwise sanitize the world of Shadowrun relative to the real world, de-emphasizing those things we as a society consider especially heinous, or do you find them acceptable for use as plot devices?
