Should've waited to pitch it till CP2077 Comes out and makes cyberpunk seem profitable again.

>>389971187
Can they really afford to literally wait until 2077 though?

>>389971030
The genisis one, Dragonfall, and Hong Kong were all pretty solid.

MS co-owns the IP and was sub-licencing it to Hairebrained. It's why there was no console version. Jordan Weismann has said he's been talking with Microsoft about a new Crimson Skies though (He didn't know they were going to use High Road To Revenge to demonstrate the OG Xbox backwards compatibility. That was a surprise). I know Spencer tweeted a few years back that he wanted to tick off an "AAA ShadowRun RPG" as well.

>Trusting Microsoft with RTS after they just gave Age of Empires 4 to Relic despite the nuclear shit that was Dawn of War 3.

I want another Shadow Run FPS. The first one was pretty good.

Eh, those Harebrained guys licensed shadowrun out to some devs who pushed a turd once already. The question is what happened to their battletec game, I thought they had a game where you built giant robots in the works with an ETA of this summer.

>>389975080
>spoiler
You could try online, hell I actually managed to get a game going through 4chan even.

>>389970564
I just want the existing ones ported to PS4

>>389976075
Battletech is in beta but the release date was pushed back to 2018.

I could go for another Shadowrun Returns, as long as microsoft is never involved, of course.

>>389976082
Where did you get that game going, anon? Was it on one of the /tg/ threads for stuff like that or did it just happen to be a one-off occurrence that you stumbled upon?

>>389976075
Still working on it. They showed some gameplay back at E3

The CRPGs were shite mobileshit so probably not.

>>389976002
I'd take an MMOFPS in the vein of Neocron, even if it was limited to a single city.

>>389976741
>The CRPGs were shite
Care to explain why? Shadowrun returns was rough but I always thought Dragonfall and Hong Kong were decent games?

>>389970564
I want a game that's like a mix of the ideal of what they were trying to do with E.Y.E Divine Cybermancy and Shadowrun 2006.

Shadowrun 2006 was a great game.

>>389976938
He said moblieshit. There are people that think the games were too casualized for mobile.

>>389976741
They were good, you people are fucking insufferable. He probably thinks Baldurs Gate is still the height of RPGs.

>>389974901
>Megacorps
>Letting something as meaningless as race of gender stand in the way of profit
As long as you follow the dress code and spend your creds at corporate owned stores they wouldn't give a fuck, mate.

>>389977151
>too casualized for mobile
How so? There's plenty of depth to the game. Building your character and having a good grasp of the games combat are important in equal parts, as well as requiring you to pay attention to the story to avoid fucking the run because you missed out on important details.

>>389977252
Enjoy your phone games

I'd love another shadowrun like the 360/pc version.
That game was amazing fun

>>389973694
>Caring about CGLs shitty freelance writers
The whole point of RPGs is to create your own stories, you can just ignore/rewrite stuff you don't like.

>>389977591
Christ, you've got me imagining one of these reactionary children running a Shadowrun game where Humanis isn't the bad guys, the frogs who fight against them are.

>>389977663
Trogs*, of course.

>>389977663
Eh, people can run games however they like. Shadowrun's always been morally ambiguous anyway. You're playing a freelance mercenary who will do just about anything as long as the paycheck is big enough.

>>389977663
I still don't know why someone didn't make UGC for Dragonfall based around Humanis being the good guys.

>>389977940
It's never been morally ambiguous - it's just been made clear that you aren't necessarily the good guys.

>>389977456
The egalitarianism the writer is espousing is equality of outcome, racial quotas and the sort.
And while a Current Year liberal studies student might view the world that, some chummer living in the shit of the 2070s sure as fuck isn't expecting handouts.

>>389978043
>you aren't necessarily the good guys
Then who is? Not the corps, not the common people, they're out for themselves like everybody else, and certainly not the dragons. There's no epic good vs evil battle happening, just people being people.

>>389970564
3 things i want from a Shadowrun game that previous games fucked up:

1. production value (VA'd dialogue at least for the critical path/characters)
2. freedom to RP a wide range of characters encompassing the full spectrum of character alignments(let me join or betray any group at least along the critical path)
3. consequences to my actions(a direct result of #2 otherwise it's meaningless)

My fourth point isn't really so much a point but a deal breaker, if the game again looks like a fucking ipad/facebook game i won't even pirate it.

>>389978336
The books are clear - runners who run as a way of trying to fight against the system are the good guys, the system is just stacked against them. Humanis is quite literally never presented in a good light, and was clearly borne from the same 80s and early 90s ethos that inspired "Nazi Punks Fuck Off" and whatnot.

>>389970564
>''next gen''
What did he mean by this? Like Xbox TWO and PS5? Because right now this is not considered next gen anymore. We are near the end of this current gen.

Nope. its dead jim.
I remember shadowrun crossplay and how they literally gimped PC players so we wouldnt make their 360 babies cry

>>389978626
>The books are clear
My whole point was about how the books should not be held as sacred. I don't like or sympathize Humanis, I don't want to play with people who do. And, yes, the writers of the books would be rather upset to find out that people like that exist. But if those people want to run the game that way, in the privacy of their own home, who cares?

>>389979061
Never played. How was it gimped?

>>389979181
It goes against the whole ethos of the setting, is the thing. They can go make nazi propaganda RPGs if they want to play that shit.

>>389979371
I'll just reiterate why do you care what they do? Why does it ruin the game for you personally?

>>389979229
after 2 weeks of cross platform, PC recieved a PC only patch. Some of the changes they did where severely limiting the mouse speed, disabled side buttons, disabled scroll wheel, hard locked the weapon change buttons and other small changes to force PC players into a more controller like situation.

>>389979702
That kind of shit doesn't belong in the hobby, and when people see it associated with the hobby, and Shadowrun and cyberpunk especially, it creates a misrepresentation of the game and the community around it.

>>389980675
Ah, there's the authoritarian reaction I was waiting for. You can't just be happy playing your games, you want to control how everyone else plays as well. Congrats, you're a fascist.

>>389980936

Shoulda known I was talking to /pol/, desu

>>389980675
So your assumption is that these guys running a "Humanis was right" campaign are also chucking it on youtube, or putting detailed session summaries up on the forums?

I had a character I played who was racist purely by way of growing up in Japanese shrines, but was still an extremist with a heart of gold. Was I playing SR wrong by not making sure that my character let their racism turn them into an awful characiture villain?

If they're not going to adapt the tabletop properly for player run campaigns
I want to see an asymmetric multiplayer game featuring corps vs. runners themes.

Somewhere between Dystopia and tabletop shadowrun, with PvE filling in for the most part until players get occasionally subbed in for more dangerous guest appearances. Most players will be immediately above street level in no time so their presence is the difficulty curve for mission running.

Doesn't have to be too complicated, corps try to grow the corp and runners complicate things in defense, or runners get hired by corps to attack on their behalf while running intel and legwork.

Real time or turn based is fine.

Shadowrun was already ruined with Returns and everything that came after that.

I still love the SNES version, and wish someone would just dump 100+ new romhacked levels into it.

>>389986137
With shadowrun?

>>389986343

Multiplayer shooter only games. Every dev is ditching single player games for this competitive shit. Shadowrun is another one of those multiplayer only games like lawbreakers, overwatch, battleborn, destiny 2 etc. It won't do well in the current market

>>389986680
Are you for real? Do you not know that Shadowrun is an RPG?

>>389986808

Yes since they have no RPGs

Are you? The op literally is saying that they wanna garner interest for shadowrun to show MICROSOFT that it's still popular.

Microsoft literally made a first person shooter shadowrun. That's all they do these days. They wouldn't make an rpg dum dum. Especially after they canned scalebound and making sea of theives vs a good single player game.

Microsoft owns the video game rights to FASA's old tabletop games because reasons. Harebrained Schemes' Shadowrun and Battletech games license the rights from Microsoft even though HBS was started by one of their original creators.

explain freeroam? You got a small area but it's more like an hub: you can wander, talk to others, shop and getting quests.
Missions are map locked, meaning once you finish it you can't go back at it (and there isn't much to do anyway after you finish it)
>>save whenever you want
Yes, you just have to wait to every member to stop moving and it works during combat as long it's your turn.
>>backtrack
Last time i remember a backtrack it was for a rescue mission and it was short, a 30 second walk max.

Return is pretty much a prototype compared to Dragonfall and HK personally.

This. Likes isn't an excuse to make a game just because. The only thing that can make good games are good studios as long as you keep the genres they are best at in mind. You could literally hand any franchise over to a good studio and you will get something good back.
