"Watch your back, shoot straight, conserve ammo, and never, ever, cut a deal with a dragon." In this episode, DK, Kirioth, and PancreasNoWork cover the neon-soaked, magic-fueled dystopia of Shadowrun. We break down the end of the "Fifth World" and the violent birth of the "Sixth World." From the rise of the megacorps to the return of magic, we explore how high fantasy crashed headfirst into cyberpunk urban decay to create one of the most unique settings in fiction, where corporations are their own states, you can suddenly get Goblinized, and great dragons are running for president.
