[QUOTE="schneeland, post: 9130366, member: 6900337"] I gave it an "It's pretty bad", but things are a bit complicated here. The one system that I looked at the most is Conan, and that felt overly fiddly, poorly explained, and uses too many meta currencies for my taste. And while I love this most famous barbarian's stories greatly, the system repelled me. So if I look at Conan 2d20 alone, that would qualify for "I hate it". But if I look at Star Trek Adventures, Dune or Achtung Cthulhu 2d20, the picture is less clear (I have admittedly only skimmed through the PDFs so far). I am still not enamoured with the system, but it already looks better and it gets to a level of "It's alright I guess", because they often do seem to capture a number of features of the respective franchises decently. But all in all, the chance that 2d20 will grow on me seems rather low. Among all the franchises that Modiphius has supplied with its house system, probably Achtung Cthulhu has the best chances that I will try again to do a deep dive (but then, I might just use the adventures with Savage Worlds). And though it's not necessarily a feature of the system, Modiphius' PDFs are pretty terrible for viewing on a tablet, and that's quite annoying. [/QUOTE]
