What we learned from Kickstarter these past months is that isometric titles can be quite successful. Ironically, most isometric games have surpassed every other Kickstarter project, which most probably means that PC gamers are not as graphics-whores as you may think they were. Or that they value gameplay over graphics. Or that most of those isometric games are sequels to beloved and classic titles that featured isometric perspectives. Whatever the reason may be, Harebrained Schemes has released the first gameplay footage of Shadowrun Returns, an isometric RPG that is said to bring back one of our most original & cherished game settings as a 2D turn-based RPG for tablets & PC, and that was funded by a Kickstarter campaign. Enjoy!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
