This is like a really lame version of Shadowrun.

Not that that is necessarily a bad thing; Shadowrun is an incredible setting that's been rewritten for decades. It's hard to live up to an RPG masterpiece.

Anyway, I have a few questions:

1. "This is an alternate reality to our own where magic exists so no real fantasy creatures in the world." What does that sentence mean? "No real fantasy creatures" ? Fantasy creatures, by definition, aren't real so I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

2. How has the government not taken any action regarding magic? It's like, a huge deal, isn't it?

3. So is the plot supposed to follow the hunting down of this serial killer? Or are we all random schmucks doing whatever we want?

If you find it so lame that why do you care so much about it? Isn't basically almost every story inspired by another story? I have never heard of Shadowrun so I cannot say if this is a copy or not, if I was to say anything had influence with it it would more likely be Deus Ex: Human Revolution and maybe Dragon Age.

Now to address your questions.
1. The roleplay does have fantasy elements in it that sentence is there to inform people that might want to join that they shouldn't expect dragons and such or try submitting a half elf.

2. Why did it take so long for the American government to allow women the right to vote or fully give blacks equality or give marriage quality?

3. If you had read all of the "Other information" section it says it is partially sandbox. People can do whatever they want but it will affect the world. If you want to be some dick that uses the Dark Flame to go around and kill people go ahead but that will make it more likely that isolation or possibly extermination will happen. The serial killer is just a subplot that players can use if they wish.
