We have the intention to make a tabletop rpg to play on new year's eve but we're clueless as to how. I've been browsing this board today in hopes of catching a few things but it's pretty hard for a newcomer to learn here as you guys have kind of a language going on here which assumes the reader to have some level of understanding of rules and all that.

So how do we go on about doing this? First we would need a setting I guess. I've seen some examples given in a thread, lot of abbreviations were used, like; aSolF, XdSerS, DDs55+StarWarsxv32. Where can I learn about these pre-made ones, also what do you suggest if we were to start from scratch?

Then, mechanics? What options do we have besides 'rng LUL'?

What are some general tips/rules to keep in mind while playing?

>to make
Nigga there's dozens if not hundreds of systems out there already. Whatever you want out of a system, there's probably a fitting one out there already that's better than anything your amateur ass can create. Why would you even bother?

don't.

You must be new. Flailing and fumbling and trying to kludge together a homebrew system is something that almost every RPG player goes through at some point.

OP, I have to leave but I can post later if no one else does.

Do we really want to encourage that, though?

No, people should never be allowed to make mistakes and grow as human beings.

Why not? It's fun and educational. And fantasy heartbreaker lying somewhere in deep dark corner of a HDD doesn't hurt anyone.

But OP, first you'll have to at least look through a couple of RPGs. Play some sessions. Don't try going through barbed wire completely naked.

Alright thanks a lot! Now where do I find these pre-made rpgs?
>>

There's one page RPG thread on this board for some very simple ones.

There are generals for more established ones (Just don't go to Dungeons&Dragons/Pathfinder generals, they give actual brain damage).

There's 1d4chan.

>1d4chan

that's some weapons grade brain damage there

>>50195055
have you tried google? There are several different and decently made starwars rpgs, AsoIF has its own too. If you're going for science fantasy space opera mash up, try looking at a generic system that has easily modifiable options like Savage Worlds, GURPS or FATE depending on what sort of gameplay you all like.

Ask around about what you're interested in. What kind of game would you like to play? Are you into fantasy, sci-fi, horror, westerns, espionage & crime, or what?

I'll look into those thank you. Meanwhile I'm open to your suggestions. I like fantasy, some of us are more into post-apocalyptic survival style. Do you have any favourite ones in these themes?

Symbaroum is a dark fantasy rpg with a slightly postapoc feel, Degenesis is a postapocalypic setting/system with a fucking massive book of lore if you're interested on that with some really cool factions (Spitalians hype)
