Friday Fun: Worst System For A License

GURPS Discworld is honestly hard to beat. And I own a copy of that

I had wondered about that. GURPS is one of my favorite games, but it seemed an odd fit for Discworld. Two very different approaches to fantasy.

Do you feel that the book contains something that may be useful if I were running something that is not Discworld?
 


I mean, any rpg can be turned into a Barbie outfit, I'm sure. I'm just not sure how it translates the other direction. I feel like a Barbie TTRPG should probably center on acquiring different clothing, jobs, and dreamhouses, which is a very different core gameplay loop than most TTRPGs. But perhaps I'm missing something; I've only played with these dolls incidentally as a small child.

I've heard tell of groups of middle school girls that play and the game play loop doesn't sound that far removed from that, just substitute "pets" for "jobs" and you'd be spot on.

(Edit:
The trajectory of each musical note would be tracked second by second, of course modified by the outfit you were wearing…
Hmmm…
Maybe there’s something to this!)
