[QUOTE="Ottergame, post: 2111805, member: 9326"] This doesn't mean what we are saying was wrong. I still think SR is tied to it's ruleset. This is going to make a lot of fans nervous. But if they can pull off the update as well as WOTC did with 3E, it will put fan fears to rest. But I get the feeling it's going to split the player base if changes are to big. If the changes are a sweeping as it seems, it's not going to be the same Shadowrun. Of course, they admited as much. At least if it's not any good, there's enough material to continue playing 3rd edition, and ignore the new storyline and changes. I think it's possible to simplify the clunk parts of the rule system without changing the feel of the game, maybe this will be the equivilent to saying 2e suppliments to D&D aren't useful in 3e. It's not that the game plays a lot differently, it's just that the little things changed enough, so that the material that focused on the little things no longer applies. [/QUOTE]
