I remember there was this whole period where tech savvy Shadowrun GMs on Dumpshock were grappling endlessly with the "unrealistic" gameplay concessions that riddled the hacking rules and trying to come up with solutions that allowed for a balance of good gameplay and believable IT design.

And then reality just YOLO'd itself off a cliff of utter insanity and it turned out the rules were right all along.

The one thing none of us had accounted for was how incredibly stupid businesses are capable of being.

Art imitates life, and sometimes, life looks at art and says "hold my beer"
