sell me on a different system

[Mind of tempest]

despite only playing dnd 5e three times it is clear to me that it does not quite mesh with me so pitch to me you're preferred system and what you can do with it such as setting and what you can play in said setting?

as I know one thing people love new players joining a system and people love to talk about what they love.

Can you give an idea about what didn't mesh with you about 5e or what you are looking for in a system? I'd be happy to offer suggestions, but would like more information about what you're wanting.

IME, I find that it's easier for people to pitch new games to you IF they know what your sore spots with DnD 5e are.

Zweihander. Not only is it better than 5e, but doing so increases your attractiveness to women.

I'll third the notion: what about 5e turns you off?

 

[Morrus]

Chess? Monopoly? I think we need a few more clues!

As others have said, what was it about d&d you did not like, and what kind of thing are you looking for? You could include genre, and the kind of thing you expect to be doing in the game. For example, Call of Cthulhu is mostly about mysteries, investigations and horror. Dungeon Crawl Classics is mostly about crazy d&d scenarios, mass player death, and OTT spells.

Sold! I just bought three copies so I have one on me at all times!

 

[Gradine]

How about a horror game where instead of dice you use a Jenga tower, and if you knock the tower over, you die

little think like finding how to RP social scenario if you do not pick bard your basically a loser, the martial being to support for the casters little things like that, the setting is more a matter of selling me on it as I find 90% of setting dull as dishwater so crazy would help.

If you want social scenario rules, perhaps something from one of the Powered by the Apocalypse systems, or a generic System like GURPS or Basic Role Play.
I will put out three suggestions: MASKs, which is an interesting game about playing teenage superheroes (think Teen Titans). RuneQuest is a medieval game like D&D, but has individual skills govern everything, so if you want to be a social-based character, you just take the social skills. Then there is Hero System, which allows you to build your characters out of a point allotment (think 'build what you want off a set budget, and every facet of your character has a listed cost'). Any of those sound interesting?
