[QUOTE="Wiseblood, post: 7394012, member: 42437"] Thanks everyone. I knew I could count on you. I will be taking a look at a couple of these. Other systems Savage Worlds, Beyond the Wall, and Dungeon World. I watched a video with one of the Dungeon World creators....wow I was blown away. I may delve into Shadowrun which I have or ICRPG since I like Hank. I am almost always the DM. This weekend I will be a player in Rise of the Runelords. I don't really care for Pathfinder but being on the player side of the screen is like a vacation. I had a terrible session last Saturday. It put me into a funk. Some of you pointed out that it might be my group. I have tried homebrew for my group. I have tried published modules (I struggle mightily with those and that was what we were doing Saturday). I gravitate towards sandbox as a player and GM but I think my group lacks the player types that can take advantage of those. Maybe the groups is just a bad fit for one another. Can it be that a railroad would actually help? And when I say I struggle mightily with running published modules I am not overstating it. In fact that may be why I felt so bad abut the situation. I feel deficient when I try. I put probably twice the effort into it compared to any adventure I design and it falls flat. It's Costanza-esque it's so bad. [/QUOTE]
