Re: [RPG]: Shadowrun: On The Run, reviewed by grandmaster_cain (3/3)

I think the reviewer's biases come out too much in the review - some of the criticisms aren't valid because they're based on the -opinions- of how something "should be" in their mind, instead of something more objective.

The difficulties of printing the .pdf are valid and worth considering if you're buying a download, but as you can get the book now in print...

Granted, this is rpg.net, but I thought the "let's all boycott FanPro" was unprofessional and not constructive.

The criticisms about plot are also valid - a lot of the adventure DOES hinge on how curious they get about their job, and it should have probably had more info on how to go about the legwork w/out a hacker in the party.

But the rest is just a rant. So what if the main villain is a vampire? There are vampires in Shadowrun; they aren't White Wolf just because they have a vampire and dice pools. And, as Ancient History has pointed out, it is, in fact, related to an older Shadowrun adventure.
