As I mentioned in my log for the SNES Shadowrun game, I've always been attracted to the Shadowrun premise but I've also never been a fan of pen and paper RPGs. I'm not creative enough to roleplay off the top of my head and my social anxiety would make it practically impossible even in situations where I was among friends. I've been relegated to novels set in the Shadowrun universe and the few video games produced to get my fix. I hold the Genesis and SNES games in equal regard despite not being able to finish either game as they were difficult and obtuse in a lot of ways. I do miss the fact that loads of games in the 90s would be completely different in story and gameplay depending on which console you purchased them for. I need to play the more recent trilogy of Shadowrun games, but I fear their gameplay may be a barrier to entry for me when what I really want is a good story.
