All things considered not the most original setting perhaps but I do like it.

I've always wanted to do a something with Riddick's setting, specifically a Butcher Bay inspired game, but never got around to it.

Maybe some day.

I would say that Destiny could be pretty neat to adapt. I mean say what you want about the game itself, but the setting is totally rad.

Kind of recursive since it sprang from the authors' GURPS campaign, but I would dearly love to play a game in this.

Seriously, how in the hell has Steve Jackson games not released a supplement for this? One of the big, beautiful splatbooks like they used to make back in the day would be such a great resource for the series. I want it badly, /tg/, I want that to be a thing so badly.

The game was only OK, but a strange modern science fantasy dungeon dive into the bowels of an old city would be a lot of fun. Brawling with strange aliens that pretend to be humans would give a decent amount of role play opportunities too compared to a lot of basic dungeon crawls.

Freesia whiles I do have some personal problems with the plot direction and the change of focus from the MC and the quality of art being all over the place.
The setting and concept was really interesting and had a ton of stories that could play out.

That map looks pretty neet. I've been in a campaign where we've been ship wrecked onto an island where the only inhabitants are tribal and giant beasts. The campaign was alright but we wiped when an invasion occurred and after two of our party members died the two of which were the spell casters we had to fight a level 12 dragonic cleric with 25PB who had prep time. Which he revealed after I took out half my health when I preformed a Flurry of blowing myself up, because he had fire shield on but the GM didn't mention that he was glowing.

For a long time I have wanted to do a game set in the SCP foundation universe, not sure what kinda system would be best for it but it would probably have to be pretty lethal.
I can imagine different Splatbooks could cover different factions in the SCP-verse, kinda like world of darkness

16th or 17th century Spanish America, probably Mexico or Peru. It'd be a bit like Deadwood, but with rapiers and big feathery hats.

I'd truly love a good solid Red Dawn esque game. Twilight 2000 and Fortress America were alright...but they just lacked something visceral to the mechanics that is hard to explain for the feel I wanted. Good games, do not get me wrong.

The author teased a few years ago an RPG might be on the way. But nothing so far. I feel your pain sir I'm rereading Gardens of the Moon at the moment.

I actually did run a BookTroopers style game, but set in a Cold War with Space Soviets rather than a hot conflict with aliens.

One of my players chose the Mobile Infantry background, so I even gave him a prologue solo quest where he participated in an orbital drop.

Went over pretty well; somehow my players were much better at that kind of game than the Firefly-esque smuggler game I tried running beforehand.

I like the overarching theme that Jagex is running with the God Wars II: Electric Boogaloo. Unfortunately, all the 'Scapers I know are salty faggots who can only enjoy Oldscape. I would run a kickass campaign if I had people who were familiar with the new lore.

The rules for vehicular combat might get pretty involved, but it could be fun.

Not too many post-apocalyptic RPGs out there with serious tones. Gamma World is okay, depending on the edition. Although some editions are downright fanfic-tier.

I mean I don't have a group nor will I ever get one together but I love this movie and always wanted a yakuza game. I wish I could get a system together that would allow for style over substance, the feel of japanese manners should take precedence over stats
>>
>>48472690
apocalypse world has shades of this, kinda edgelordy in the book but the game is solid.

also consider L5R the system is kinda ass and needs tweaks but it has a fluid narrative playing style that mightbsuit the vaguely tarantinoesque world if yakuza. (probably a japanese director whos a better fit for that)

So you want a game where you walk and walk and walk and then the monsters are like beautiful whales or something and then they fuck and that's it, see you next sunday
