[QUOTE="Retreater, post: 9085203, member: 42040"] As I was discussing in another thread, I am majorly burned out on 5e. I can handle PF2 because it handles the "heavy lifting" that 5e doesn't (which contributes to my burn out on that system.) My group has 1-2 sessions left in its 5e campaign. Most players are teenagers with little gaming experience who barely know 5e. No one else wants to DM. So ... where next? I have the complexity of PF2 ... with basically the same feel as D&D. I have Savage Pathfinder ... again with basically the same feel as D&D. I have Call of Cthulhu ... but the themes are uncomfortable for younger players, who also like to joke around and kill stuff. I have mountains of Free League stuff, but again, I don't see something like Twilight 2000 being a good fit. My wife suggested I find a sci-fi game, but for the life of me, I can't think of anything that would have decent pacing and action that could hold their attention. (Starfinder would probably be too complex, not to mention I kinda hate the 3.x/PF1 chassis and it's a dying system after today's announcement.) Anyone care to brainstorm with me? [/QUOTE]
