Best shadowrun returns campaigns

It's had a funny old recent history, but one that's seen it go from strength to strength. Shadowrun: Hong Kong is the follow-up to Shadowrun Returns, a latter-day sequel to/adaptation of the old cyberpunk RPG. There's lots of anxiety flying around about the Kickstarter era of videogame development winding down, but Shadowrun: Hong Kong flew in the face of doomsaying by getting itself funded within hours of the campaign launching. What is relevant is that Harebrained Schemes join the likes of Double Fine and inXile in getting a second game crowd-funded into existence. But they weren't talking about one studio being able to pull off multiple successful Kickstarters when they said that, so it's irrelevant.
