wow, seamless, it's like the backer portraits aren't even there
>>344793090
If you didn't tell me it was a backer, I would have assumed it was a in-universe tryhard.
The kind of Merc that calls himself another nickname every week trying to lose the moniker "Krispy-Kreme"
is that jeff
>>344793090
is that jeff gerstmann?
>>344793950
>>344793982
>not only watching those shilling faggots but knowing their names
please fuck off from this site
>>344793090
That would look fine if it dind't have the fucking retarded mustache
>>344795923
there's nothing fine about that or nasty ass looking hypebeast groids moaning into a vocoder about hennessy and bananas
fuck off
>>344793090
I find it very funny because some of the backer portraits are actually pretty good but then you get shit like this that's a base with the face forced and slightly painted over and they look like absolute shit
plus for some reason most of the backers have sent smiling pictures because they're idiots
>>344794947
i was watching them before you were born squirt.
>>344794947
its okay to know jeff gerstmanns name, he was a meme gamespot employee before internet celebrities were a thing
>>344796889
>was a gamespot employee
And now he works at a different company under the exact same parent company
>>344796485
0 of the portraits are good
the only serviceable portraits in Hong Kong are the ones that are original art for the game, the ones that fit the setting
everything else is pure autism
>>344796485
human "female"
>>344798457
Oh fuck she was so damn cringey when you met her in the bar. All of those "hey these are backers and we know you'll never hire these autists so we'll put them in here" meetings in that place were godawful though.
>>344796485
that looks exactly like this dude, I'm sure someone has the exact image where he is wearing a beret
What game?
>>344799107
>Thinking that Communism is the route to making people more free to express their identity as an individual
So they've never actually read a history book in their lives, or what?
>>344798971
>>344799405
Wasn't he one of the main hub characters?
Why would Jeff back a Shadowrun game?
>>344799360
no, they know, but they believe that they're the super special ones that will make it work
>>344795780
holy shit what a fat clod of shit
>>344799564
the bouncer at the door, one of the characters with endless and tiresome exposition
at least not all images weren't bad, all the portraits hk added for the player were top shit and felt as inspired as their best designed companions from the last two games
>>344799847
>weren't
fuck me, I meant were
>>344799847
Purely the backer images were bad, original portraits were all great. They really need to stop offering ingame rewards to backers that affect everyone.
>>344799405
>I want matching roboeyes for myself and my cat
can't get more cyberpunk than that
>>344799203
Shadowrun: Hong Kong.
best one right here
makes sense to me
even in the fucked up fantasy cyberpunk future there are still going to be fat retards
>>344800724
This is so...off
>>344800724
>>344799847
>>344793090
Didn't playyet, but these three look good (or not bad) to me.
>>344801241
>Not liking America-san
When the fuck is Mechwarrior's beta coming out? I can't keep replaying FM forever.
>>344802173
Cyberpunk future, corporations run everything, and that dude has an american flag bandana like some biker. My immersion is ruined
>>344802417
>in my grimderp cyberpunk future there aren't any AmericaFuckYeah Dudes
>nor bikers
>especially American bikers
>no one also smiles, laughs or jokes, directly or indirectly
I don't even know the npc, but come on.
>>344795780
I want to punch whoever this is in the throat and watch them choke on their own blood.
>>344802563
For me it's not so much that it's a biker dude with an American flag on his head as much as it's a biker dude with an American flag on his head in fucking Hong Kong. Had he been in Seattle I'd have much less of a problem with it but as it is it's just stupid af.
>>344802563
its actually one of the player character portraits
>>344802792
your character is from america
shadowrun returnns got the feel right, it just needed to be more than it was
but I much preferred the solo operative detective feel to the forced companions feel, though the later two games were better
>>344802897
Yes, the PC is from America. The PC is also a SINless ex-con trying to blend into HK so as not to get fucking murdered. Wearing a bandana that screams "I'm a retarded American" while shooting your way thru megacorps is not how that is done.
>>344803223
You utterly misunderstand keeping a low profile.
Ways to get made as a expat
*Wear clothing with Chinese characters on it.
*Speak 0 English (You wanna stumble through a few lines here and there)
*Eat in any method other than bowl/chopstick and hands.
*Refuse alcohol
Ways you don't get made as an expat.
*Wearing a novelty dew-rag (Made in China)
You're already SINless; You've already broken the chain as long as you're not dumb enough to call home too often. Besides: Blending is 30% research, 70% confidence.
>>344803223
everything went ok during my playthrough when i used that portrait. just get gud.
so how good are pistols in HK? i want to do a charismatic character that uses handguns.
>>344804319
Pretty decent. Chain skills are the draw
>>344804319
do it, the game is not hard
>>344802173
His proper title is Amerika-san, Legendary Trucker, but I'll let you off with a warning.
>>344800724
Yeah, it's the fucking bomb. Just imagining it in all it's Bandit Keith-y glory makes so many moments so much better.
>phys adept going full blender on goons
>running up to fucking plague rat hiveminds and demon lords and decking them in the face
>pulling a "nah fuck all y'all faglords" onWhistleblower
>all the goofy options
>literally anything involving Gobbet
I really should sit down and finish this game. So much good shit.
>>344802693
Holy shit man, you must be pretty crazy. I mean you're just totally dangerous on a level normal people can't even conceive, you know? That guy had better steer clear of someone as dark and hardcore as you.
Trolls a cute!
>>344806794
If you find skrillex mop hair to be cute, you have some serious issues
>>344806858
Then I guess I've got serious issues
Every race and sex combination always has one or two portraits that don't quite fit the othersand look far better than the others.
>>344804565
>>344804793
i know this is like an hour late, but what would be a good street name? i can't think of anything good.
>>344810740
What kind of person do you think your character will be?
>>344811410
kinda cocky and snarky
>>344810740
I've got you covered, friendo.
>>344811624
>>344811410
somthing like gene from god hand. should have added this.
>>344811624

eh, i don't feel like that fits. i'll figure something out. thanks anyways.
>>344797096
so? he's been doing vidya related stuff for his entire life, it's okay to show someone respect if theyre knowledgeable in their field.
Don't have to take what they say like it's a holy grail, either.
>there will never be a good high budget shadowrun game
Why live

Or an MTG came that's not cards
Or a D&D game
Or a Star Wars game
Or a Fallout game
Or a Dragon Age game
Or a Mass Effect game
