Loving the game.

Who did the art, specifically the portraits? That dude should be hired forever.


Also I think I know why the Baron participates on runs remotely. So runners can't punch the bastard in the face when he oversells this 'Guards? I got this don't worry mon ami' bullshit.

I have a few questions about Shadowrun metaphysics, specifically about ghosts.

Do they exist? Is it a semi-regular thing that if someone dies they can show back up as a ghost? Do ghosts from before the awakening of magic exist? What kind of powers do Shadowrun ghosts have? Can they function as poltergeists or possess people? Can ghosts possess computers? If you have a shitload of cyberware and an essence of 1, can you still show up as a ghost? Any difference between ghosts in Europe and Asia (ie hungry dead)? Are ghosts considered spirits and thus can mages/shamen do whatever they want with them? Is there a Hell or Hades-like plane that ghosts go to?

If there is a sourcebook that I should pick up, I'm all ears.

Thanks a lot for all your responses guys. Looks like there is some narrative flexibility.

Re: Party expansion midgame

Anyone else find it hilarious that the Mage was the only one who didn't realize there was a Hellhound in the house? Isn't he suppost to see auras?

Yep. Why not give us slides related to the things we DID affect, smaller things? I think that's why the epilogue is kinda meh.

I agree. The fallout 3/NV approach to endings is more satisfying.

Edit: I guess Dragon Age 1 did this as well.

Talking to the bartender and getting him to say "gently caress this job" and giving you the cocktail was one of the highlights so far.

Weird. I bought the Dragonfall DLC when it came out and I'm not getting any update or UI changes.

Anyone else have this problem?

It's not an update to Dragonfall - it's a standalone release with an improved engine. It should be in your Steam library. The original version is exactly where you left it.

And there it is! Thanks for clarifying. :shepface:
