Bonus points for any non-D&D or D&D derivative systems.
My first RPG was Palladium Fantasy way back when my grognard uncle invited me to his groups table. I still don’t really grok it, but it was pretty formative of my ideas of what an RPG could be. The lack of balance and extreme existential threats as part of ordinary encounters included.
Needless to say, I haven’t found a group for this system in a looong while, eheh.
Numenera, far future setting for Cypher System. I’m the forever DM and I haven’t been a player since I played the Skein of the Blackbone Bride oneshot at GenghisCon that got me into it at least 5 years ago.
I’ve always wanted to play Cypher in the Numenera system. I have been using the Cypher items in my dnd game but I wanted to use the whole system
Scion (White Wolf). Maybe Eclipse Phase. Mutants and Masterminds.
Call of Cthulhu.
Bonus answer: Star Wars D6, our main game back in the day and a lot of great memories.
Oh I would like to try the star wars D6. I played quite a lot of the ffg star wars because at some point it was the favorite for most of the people in my play group, but I never found it very nice. I love star wars lore, but not this system.
FFG star wars is great. We did a few sessions with my current group and it was pretty fun. Easier online with the automatic counting of successes and failures
Yeah I had to make an android app for that because one person in the group was taking ages to proceed each rolls …
I would say that the game as a whole is fine but it’s carried by the franchise. The system is not for me, but no doubt a lot of people like it. I cannot even explain why I don’t like it specifically, it just didn’t work for me.
Unknown armies 3rd edition. Did the kickstarter however long ago that was but haven’t had a group in that long to try it out with.
