This setting has a little bit of everything, plus the kitchen sink, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Daemons, magic, cybernetics, shadowy corporations make for a ton of plot hooks and character options, and its all set in a post-apocalyptic nightmare of a world. The book's layout can be confusing, but I've seen worse from bigger publishers. The combat rules can also be ambiguous at time, but the tone and setting more than made up for any mechanical issues for me and my group. I run games for a group of Air Force guys who've never played PnP RPGs before, and Obsidian clicks for our group in a way that other systems don't.
