Re: [RPG]: Shadowrun Fourth Edition, reviewed by Menchi (5/5)

Over and over again, you keep shitting and sniping at the game
I'm not "s****ing and sniping" at the game-- I'm pointing out that it's not the most wonderful thing since sliced bread. In fact, it's just an average game in relation to many other things on the market.

Over and over again, I keep saying: "It's not a horrible game". If I were "s****ing and sniping" at the game, I'd be declaring it to stink worse than Bull's gym socks-- however, nowhere have I even come close to saying that. It seems to me that some of the developers are taking offense at pointed criticism of their product-- and are declaring any opinion that does not say "nSR is TEH SUX!" is "hatred" and can be ignored. I have yet to see any of the developers admit that they might have done anything that wasn't absolutely wonderful and should therefore be worshipped-- and, while it is not a bad game, it is decidedly not that good.

The game is not bad. Allow me to end with the thesis from my review:
"Don't get me wrong-- it's a good game. It's just not an excellent one."
