Last year Jordan Weismanās Harebrained Schemes raised $1,895,772 via Kickstarter to create the ultimate game based on the magic-meets-technology pen-and-paper role-playing game, Shadowrun. Today we get our first look at Shadowrun Returns gameplay, and so far itās everything I wanted it to be.

Iāve watched the whole thing twice now, and it keeps getting better every time I see it. Some highlights:
ā¢ Stat-based decisions in conversations
ā¢ Talking your way out of a fight ā or not
ā¢ Riggers being useful for once
ā¢ Shamanic summoning is amazing and dangerous
ā¢ Magic-enhancing ley lines as special places to stand ā perfect
ā¢ The Rigger paralyzed on the ley line spot ā not so useful
I am incredibly pleased. I may have missed out on backing the game during the Kickstarter launch (I could have sworn I did), but Iām going to make up for it by preordering right now
