The One Ring is the best RPG to play in the Middle Earth setting.
So, what do the rest of you have to say?
Marvel Heroic does the MCU pretty much spot on. (I like Sentinel Comics better, but it's not an adaptation of a book nor movie, but of another game)
Now, we get to the one likely to be most controversial: Starships & Spacemen 1E. (I detest the 2E version.) No Trek game as captured the feel of TOS/TAS so well. I liked FASA-Trek. I liked LUG. I like some of the ideas in Modiphius-STA but not the game overall. I liked the fluff in Decipher Trek, but not really thrilled with the game. And while I love Prime Directive 1E, PD1 isn't doing Trek in the same sense.
Having run several campaigns, I don't think STA is a good game, period, at least not as written. It has some good ideas: secondary characters, the Char gen process, the determination/value tie-in... but the more I deal with 2d20, the less I like the core engine. Effort of the character (in terms of momentum spent for extra dice) is the singularly most important factor in success, swamping out most other concerns.I think STA works for the TNG-era better than the other Star Trek RPGs but the TOS era is a tricky one.
It was created to play superhero comics very well, especially when it comes to different power levels of the heroes.
I noticed that players, who are not so into comics, don't like this equalization when the team consists of a range from Hawkeye to Hulk. Very strange...
