From reading it, it was very cool and flavorful, but the mechanics did not seem to create a coherent D&D character role niche and did not seem to be designed to make a useful or powerful set of powers. You had huge flexibility day to day in setting your powers for the day, but they each seemed...

Eh, Sort of. 5e 14 says a DM can call for rolls or not, here is the system for calling for rolls including a difficulty chart. You can know if a check is called for how good your PC is compared to your buddy's PC from the stats on your sheet. If there is a check it gives a common framework and...

You seem to be under the misapprehension that because I do not like an element of a piece of fiction and I am critical of that element that I don't like the fiction as a whole. I really like Firefly, Deadlands, Wheel of Time, etc. though I am not a fan of the elements of them that romanticizes...

Non weapon proficiencies were in the 2e PH and part of a whole chapter on proficiencies and had done out ability based mechanics for a lot of them (some were like feats in giving non ability based stuff). They were, however, explicitly an optional 2e system and not the only one. A lot of options...

1e didn't have that as a tradition, it had a bunch of one off resolutions, often leaving it to the DM to ad hoc a resolution. The mechanisms that were there were sometimes based on ability scores, sometimes based on race or class or levels or just flat rolls, possibly modified by abilities or...

It would work, I would play. Make a lot of stuff class and background based for bonuses on checks. Could give a small bonus (replacing a stat bonus) for the whole class list of skills then add proficiency for chosen skills.

Call of Cthulhu Humble Bundle.

Honey Heist.

Paranoia

I like it. It is very in action with the guy riding out to the attack, sword drawn and ready to swing and he is in a decent setting, not just a figure cut out. The biggest downside to me is the helmet wings? The closer the inspection the less they work for me. From a distance they are fine...
