I guess this is the place to post if I'm looking for stuff to play. I've got such a long list and a bazillion white whales. Geez o_o
- Star Wars. Preferably the Fantasy Flight version, as I've been itching to give it a whirl, but I'd be down for anything from the WEG version to finally trying the SAGA Edition.
- Cyberpunk stuff. I've never played Shadowrun, but I've had the books for forever and a day, and would love to get in on this if at all possible. PbtA's The Sprawl would also be totally jammin' if there's anyone willing to run it, but I'm open to other stuff!
- Shadow of the Demon Lord. Pathfinder's edgier, darker cousin, with even more simplified rules and broader class options. I actually really like the streamlined system and the various multitude of character options is at both easily understood and wildly impressive in scope. As an added bonus it's nice and quick in comparison to the traditionally sloggy d20 system. Though speaking of...
- Starfinder. PAAAATHINDIIINDER IIIIINNNN SPAAAAACE. Though I've drifted away from the d20 system over the years, I still have fond memories of playing d20 Modern/Future, and this is as close to that as I've ever seen.
- The Final Girl. I'm not sure how we'd play it on a forum, but when I played it in-person it was fantastically shlocky and hilariously entertaining in a B-Movie sort of way!
- Straight to VHS. Literally a love-letter roleplaying game about making horrible B-Movies (which I love). Werewolf Cops from the Future and Kung-Fu Stripper Nuns with Mysterious Pasts team up in the ultimate buddy movie to stop Evil Ancient Sorcerers from destroying the world's supply of spaghetti. You get the idea.
- Superheroes! I kickstarted the Masks: The Next Generation stuff, and the art alone is worth the price of admission. I've slathered over trying to get my group to play it before we disbanded, but to no avail. Never got the chance, but hey, you never know! Super Repo! is also pretty neat (albeit more comical in nature), but would totally love to play that, too, but I'm down to clown with other systems if there's some definitive interest in running something.
- A Wanderer's Romance. Exalted Lite, with a more classical Wuxia bent revolving around an ocean populated by islands boasting people raised on the ancient Wuxia Code. Pretty much a game about self-enlightenment and martial/magical mastery rather than murder hoboism and saving the world (though those things could totally be implemented!). I have plans to run this soon-ish, but if I could get in on a game, too, that'd be fantastic.
- D&D 5th Edition. Never actually played it, but bought the core rulebook when it came out. Didn't care much for 4th, and from what I've read it's very much a throwback to the old 2e days (or at least relatively speaking).
