Is 5e any good? I loved the flavor update in 4e, but felt like they threw out a lot of what was good with the mechanics from 3e.

Yeah, besides the huge amount of errata and bizarre inconsistencies between what you would expect a roll to be vs what it actually is 5e is ok.
The amount of flavor is sad, but at lest deckers are cool now since [everything] is wireless.
Shadowrun 5e -> Roll 21d6 defense test against a 18d6 attack.
In all seriousness, good article. I always wondered where the need of the d20s came from, and always wondered why d10s and the likes didn't catch on. I always had shadowrun to blame for an ungodly amount of d6's laying around my house
