There seems to be a growing disenchantment with the direction Shadowrun has been takeing over the last few years and most of it, from what I can tell from the posts here on DS, involves themeatic drift. That Shadowrun has drifted away from it's Cyber Punk roots.
I thought it would be good for everyone to discuss what they thought the thems of Cyber Punk were/are. Also so that I could make fun of everyone who posted plot elements and thought they were themes. :) So have at it. After the 1st couple of posts I'll chime in with my .02 :nuyen: Thanos |
