Just found out about this

[Kuomodo]

As a big fan of the Sega Shadowrun game, I have been waiting for a new game for a while. The fine folks @ smith and tinker directed me here after I sent one of those 'please tell me you're going to make a shadowrun rpg' emails. I hope more places will cover this game as dev gets rolling.

I know what you mean about checking out smith and tinker once I found out they had the rights I keep on checking out their web site for any news. I've been playing Shadowrun since the 2nd edition came out.

There is one thing I love about RPG games is that you get to make a character that only you have so Cliffhanger when you are making the characters layout for use to play please remember to but in as much as you can that will let us customize our characters to be just ours. I've heard about some of it in the Q&A forum you posted (again thanks for that forum it lets me see what kind of game Shadowrun will be and I'm so happy about what I'm hearing). If you can't put all the stuff you have in mind on the lunch of the game just keep adding on as time move forward and money comes in.

One question you said you where looking into totems, are you going to have both hermitic and shamanic spell worms in the game?

about customization - you will have a full character creation for the game (with adapted rules of course). Regarding the visuals this is purely a budget question, we will see how much we can do there, though in the end, many chars look different based on what they wear mainly and we will have plenty of equipment to wear

Thanks for your question Magi . I will forward it directly to primetide. I hope there'll be an answer soon.

  We honestly can't say yet, we haven't finlaized the design for our magic system and need to look into what we can achieve. We do aim for both hermetic and shamanic traditions, but likely only a limited amount of both.
