All kidding aside, the objectively best system is literally mine. The one I use is clearly superior and anyone who disagrees is the dumbest Hitler-channeling retard in all of time and space, and I hope that faggot dies of ass cancer before he can reproduce.

Hope that helps!

PS,

Welcome to 4chan, newfag.

This implies that there can be a good d20 system.
>>
>>43900985
best just means better than the rest so it doesn't have to be good, just less shit than the others
>>
Any one that allows you to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

FATE is better, though.
>>
>>43894833
Only correct answer. This is correct because the OP implies that there is a good d20 system. Because this is obviously false, the answer defaults to the best system. This is obviously GURPS.
>>
>>43894769
D&D Essentials. All of the balance of 4e, but with out the stupid everybody-follows-the-same-power-progression-and-mechanic that made 4e classes feel too samey.

5e, 4e, E6, 13th Age, and Legend are all legitimate options too, though. All have warts, but there isn't a perfect system.

"d20" vs "D20" is an important distinction. The question is whether the OP is aware of that distinction.
>>
>>43894769
Based on the way it fagged up everything forever from being so popular and ubiquitous, the dumb idiot obvious answer to your dumb idiot question is D&D 3.5.

Really though the only system where a core mechanic was a good idea was Mutants and Masterminds 3rd edition.
>>
My homebrew, because it's tailored specifically to change the stuff I didn't like.

Then Pathfinder, because content.

Then fantasy craft, because it's also well designed.

Mutants and Masterminds.

I don't even like superheroes and its just a solid improvement on everything D&D

The fact that you aren't even kidding makes it worse.

It's nice that AD&D has more options than Basic, but the additional material tends to be of lower quality and the system adds a lot of bullshit rules and restrictions. Moldvay Basic is the best option, as the successor of base-level OD&D, only cleaned up and self-contained. AD&D makes good source material though.

PoW added a bunch of martial maneuver initiator classes ala 3.5's Tome of Battle. Better balanced than the shitty vanilla martials, but both books are third party so some dms won't allow.

Fantasy Craft, for everything blackpowder and earlier.

Totally doesn't count. It's Runequest with d20s, not ad20 system game.
>>
>>43905825
Mutants and masterminds.

The game where a guy who punches people and a guy who casts spells are basically the same thing.
>>
>>43894769
There is one d20 system.
What you want to ask is "What is the best d20 system-based game?"
I'd say M&M2e.
>>
>>43901962
4e, essentials and 5e are systems that use a d20, but are not "d20 systems". 13th age I'm not sure.
E6 is just regular D&D stopping at 6th level.

2e's dogshit. Keeps too many of the old D&Disms, and just being a mess in general.

M&M 3e, now there's a fucking game.
>>
>>43906304
Yes, but you go in knowing this.

And the DM is told, even more then normal "This is a goddamn toolbox. If a player is fucking the dog, slap him. The goal's fun, fucker. For all."

Have a super simple limnius test: Would you read a comic about this PC? If not, you dun fucked up.
>>
>>43913259
It is, but it's not a d20 system game.
Seriously folks, d20 is 15 years old at this point, it's not fucking hard.
