I've been looking at the various rules-lite D20 variants, but repeatedly find that my desires aren't catered to by any of them. My basic dilemma is this: I want (modern) D&D, just simpler.
To clarify, I want to play D&D, not another RPG. That means I'm looking for a system that approximates D&D's genre and flavor. I'm not interested in generic systems, because I like to have my system reflect (as least somewhat) my genre. True20 fails the "too generic" test.
I only ever played older versions of D&D briefly; I have no particular interest in emulating them. I like D&D's flavor and "feel" as it is now, I just wish it were a bit simpler. That rules out Castles and Crusades.
Are there no systems that cater to my needs? Am I the only one who wants these things? If not, I think this is a real hole in the market that some enterprising publisher could do well off exploiting.
What do you think?
