Shadowrun (MMOG)

Smith & Tinker - Reinventing Play for the Connected Generation

So, the original creators of the pen & paper role playing game Shadowrun have bought the rights back. I kinda missed those news.

The possibility for another screw-up by Microsoft and FASA is gone now and maybe we'll see a Shadowrun game at some time, a Shadowrun MMORPG - one of my dreams.

Shadowrun Online reveals world view and legwork videos

Cliffhanger Production's Kickstarter campaign for Shadowrun Online is entering the home stretch, which means it's time for new videos and information about the game!

World views in Shadowrun Online allow players to access the information that matters most to them. A Hacker will receive and manipulate different information than a Mage, as each has skills and abilities geared towards different gameplay styles. Not only does this help tailor individual play,but it creates a more information-rich style of team dynamics when players can provide their allies with different information.

The game expects players to be prepared for a given situation rather than running, guns blazing, into a room full of hostiles. "Legwork" means gathering information and having a plan to deal with security guards because unlike people in some (and by some we mean most) online worlds, people in Shadowrun tend to notice when they suddenly go missing.

The team has scheduled a Reddit AMA for August 8th at 3:00 p.m. EDT. Skip below the cut for the two new videos.
