Poll: Favorite Non-D&D RPG Setting

[MythandLore]

Just to be precise, I was asking about settings, not about games themselves.

I was talking about settings, I like the worlds those 3 games took place in. (Remeber the games didn't all take place in the same world)
I haven't liked the "settings" of the newer ones.

How could this be?

Dear god. Am I alone in my fondness for R.Talsorian's Cyberpunk 2018/2020 ?

I will now cry. Pleases avert your eyes.

Harn for fantasy
Dark Champions for gritty

I love playing in Image when it was young, for my supers game.

White Wolf gets many kudos for great writing.

I voted for Traveller - the Imperium. Something about that setting always fasinated me. I ran a one semester campaign back in high school and then various oneoffs throughout the years but never a full, multi-year campaign.

One day I'll convince my players that a 15 year old game is still worth their time

(*sigh* now I'm going to bed and read one of my old traveller adventures - Maybe Death Station? Naaah - Expedition to Zhodane - that was always a good one)

**Holy Bovine fades off into wistful nostalgia**

My favorite setting is Shadowrun, but my favorite D20 setting has to be the Fading Suns universe.

 

[MulhorandSage]

The Earth of Dark Conspiracy's an option but Glorantha isn't?

Oh Colonel, tut, tut, shame, shame.

Good lord, favourite Non-D&D setting. I cant narrow it down to one. At beast I could narrow it down to a handful. So, here goes.

Middle Earth (the ICE version)
Shadow World
Shadowrun
Earthdawn
Deadlands

 

[Sulimo]

Seconded. Until 3E came out, I couldn't imagine running a fantasy game that wasn't Earthdawn. Everything about that game was just incredibly well done, IMO.

Cullain

Yeah, it is good. And frankly I like the system. And could'nt imagine shoe-horning it into 3e or another system.

 

[Sulimo]

Nobody else for Paranoia?! Come on, you were all thinking it, too, but were too shy to admit it. The best part is the fact that Paranoia Third Edition is like d20 before there was d20!

I'm not shy about praising Paranoia, It's one of my fave games. HAvent played it for years.

Who actually owns the rights to it now? I wish someone would ressurect it. Not at as _another_ d20 repackaging though.

In my prefferred order

Harnmaster If i could only find a GM
GURPS Conan, WFRP
Midgard, Middleearth, Cyberpunk


Glorrantha & Amber( second or even first row, frm my impressions) had never played it only read the rules and the world description.
