Wasn't the designer also one of the guys who worked on some recent edition of Shadowrun? Which makes it funnier since his own take of it is just worse.
i thought the lore was the worst thing about this until i saw that the asking price is the funny weed number. which if $3.20 more than what people should be paying for. they didn't even try
Natives of the lands get superpowers? Natives how? How do you define a true native when, according to popular science, we all came from some place in Africa millions of years ago, and all the countries were one massive landmass (Pangaea)? How long do you have to live in a place to be a native? If you live abroad, do you still get the powers of your land (alien in New York, etc)? What happens to a person of mixed blood or who was conceived through alternate means? Grape, tube and surrogate babies, for example. Or is this another case of "the author spitting on people he or she doesn't like on the internet"?
It's the same logic that makes the Sami "Europe's only indigenous people". To the far left, native/indigenous just means that your minority group is extra special and has an innate moral and cultural superiority over all the other locals.
You can make something political and have it age extremely well. Cyberpunk 2020 was written in the late 80s with several expansions through the 90s, and it's aged incredibly well. The trick is that you need to actually use your brain and try to extrapolate the direction politics is currently taking towards the future, and not just throwing up your hands and going "politics happened the way I wanted it to because I said so".
Yeah the excuse is always that they "dont wunna be a victim of Americas foreign policies." Even though they would choose either Sweden, Denmark, Greece or Italy like America has had anything to do with those countries in the last hundred years.
I appreciate any modern/future system that gives priority to being muscular.
"We have Shadowrun at home"
The nativewank is extra strong with this one
Oh boy! I always wanted to play Shadowrun But Worse!
What in seven hells is happening in middle east with this kind of premise.

Leaves for higher planes

I think it means that it's catered to an audience that isn't us.
I feel culturally appropriated.
Notepad when are you reviewing my shitty unfinished game?
Why does cyberpunk always have to get so cringe whenever the writers try to shoehorn in magic?
Yeah, I'm betting on shitpost game that the author got bored of.
As a diehard Shadowrun fan, this shit is terrible.
No better way to make something dated than to incorporate politics.

3:35 anarchists are liberals so this is absolutely not self aware enough to be critique lol
Yet the creator of this still probably lives in America. Huh.

Well this was a pile of garbage. Hope they didn’t charge you for it.
