Numenera, Legend in the Mist and Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + Edition, Conan The Hyborian Age, Nimble, The Cosmere RPG, Fantasy Age 2e, Daggerheart, Draw Steel are my picks.
I have Pirate Borg and also backed their Dark Caribbean Kickstarter. I just can't ever find a game to join.
How much do I have to pay you to run it in an online campaign and allow me to play in it? Pirates of the Caribbean + The Evil Dead = sign me up!
Legend in the Mist is quite possibly my favorite fantasy game overall, alongside Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + and Conan The Hyborian Age.
I've played some sessions and enjoyed it immensely.
I own the 2e for Hyperborea, Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers of Hyperborea, and the 3e Hyperborea. Al though it is pretty good overall, my players did not enjoy nearly as much as I did. They are not as into the AD&D-type mechanics.
I prefer Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + for barbaric...
I say this because Draw Steel clearly states 4e as its primary influence, and the game's mechanics demonstrate this throughout. Daggerheart states it is their answer to 5e.
I am very curious about the various D&D/D20 fantasy alternatives/derivatives/adjacent games out there that are pretty popular right now. I even own several. I am wondering which is your personal favorite? Convince the rest of us why your favorite is the best!
