[QUOTE="Orius, post: 1307772, member: 8863"] I've never touched anything but D&D either. I don't really have the time to learn another system. I wouldn't mind using d20 Modern rules or any other d20 variants, since the differences are probably slight, but for the most part, I'm just a hardcore D&D player. Many of the settings out there haven't really interested me that much anyway. It's really a matter of flavor rather than rules, and I like the taste of D&D. If I want to play fantasy, I'll play D&D. I like the heroic feel of the game, and I don't give a damn if hit points or alignment aren't "realistic". "Grim and Gritty" doesn't appeal to me. I would probably never touch WW's WoD stuff. I don't like angsty goths, so the flavor is probably something I'd find unpalatable. Shadowrun has a lot of fans, but it just seems too weird. I suppose Rifts would fit in the too weird catagory too. CoC is another really popular game, but I'm the kind of guy that would rather fight the Mythos than go crazy. So I'd grab CoC d20, Conan d20, set the whole thing in the Hyborian Age, and watch a bunch of Cimmerians kick the crap out of the Mythos while the CoC purists all fail their insanity checks. :D Two games that I had some interest in playing were WEG's Star Wars, and the Dark*Matter setting for Alternity, but I never bought any of the books or played a game.
