[QUOTE="The Horror, post: 2131936, member: 26472"] Wait a second. Michelle, are you doing some freelance work on Shadowrun 4th? **checks other post*** My God. This book is going to rock. For those of you that don't know, Michelle Lyons was the person who wrote the Daedalus setting in Ex Machina. There were only two settings in that book that actually gave some thought as to the role of characters in an actual game, and that were more than just exercises in writing some fiction material. One of those was Underworld, which really did not do much to update the old ideas of Cyberpunk. Daedalus was the other. It looked at real life news articles, current up to date technological trends, and the social issues associated with those new emerging technologies. It then proceeded to extrapolate that information into a futuristic dystopian setting, while still keeping in mind the fact that it was at the end of the day all for a game that would have to be played by real people. Eight good pieces of news already out from the FanPro FAQ. Another good piece of news here. The Horror [/QUOTE]
