Assuming M&M keeps the intel boosters, it could have a huge effect on Otaku.
(My gnome is at 9 now, plus another 4 for cerebral booster and encephalon,
plus you can raise to 50% higher than regualr max, which means my max intel
would be
(9+50%+4) around 17 :-)
Note: IMO, the difference between deckers and otaku is like the difference
between Sams and Adepts (not to start THAT argument again :-)
given enough karma, otaku would be great. While they are spending karma on
such things as their channels and complex forms and such, as well as Atts and
Computer skill; The decker just adds to computer skill and Atts (either way
barring other interests) and just buys/programs his higher ratings.
