And all of its metaplot is either harder to wrap your brain around for being set ostensibly in the future of Earth, or easier for the same reason, depending on how you've wired. I realize these numbers are still smaller than your numbers, I'm not trying to disprove your point, I'm just saying Shadowrun is also...a very, very expansive topic.)Edit: speaking of Shadowrun, my research has lead me to conclude that I like Faerun's dragons WAY more than the plain vanilla dragons of default D&D (and, by extension, Greyhawk) and a lot more like dragons in Shadowrun. Leaving aside that there are like seven new kinds of dragons besides your basic chromatic & metallic 10, it seems like chromatic dragons can be good or neutral and metallic dragons can be neutral or evil, which is a house rule (if you can call it that) I have instated in every game of D&D I've ever run. Likewise, all or nearly all dragons seem to be able to assume human form, another ability I grant to dragons of all stripes in my games. Forgotten Realms even <a href="https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Xorvintaal" target="_blank">has its own version of Chal'han</a> (!!) or I guess you could say Shadowrun has its own version of good thing I don't have to try to pronounce this out loud Xorvintaal.When you play the Xorvintaal, you win or you die?Edit:I'm pretty sure a meme can't be condescending, it's just a meme. Anyway, that's why I made this thread! I am a professional games writer dude. It's the only work I've ever earned money doing. I can learn a lot, very quickly. You'd be surprised. In any case there's no need to be defensive. I started this thread because I knew there was splenty of stuff I need to know outside the memetic stuff.</blockquote>
