Advancing is difficult without leveling up, creating this monotonous and repetitive cycle of fighting in the same lower tiers to do so. Still, I looked forward to getting through the story. Then came that last forced update (An ultra lame move by the developers). You now easily lose all the decent & rare equipment that you spend so many hours collecting. A fan of Shadowrun on SNES, I found promise in Cyberika, but the bait and switch was all too obvious and the game is now a time/money bandit.
