It will never be BALANCED, but again, with a good DM, that isn't important... even the mightiest characters (Cosmoknights, Nuroni 'borgs, etc) can be taken down. And it's a lot of fun to roleplay in the Rifts world. System sucks, however.Vampire : Sure, it's a bit angsty, like so many WW games, but I enjoy it.Mage : It's not Ars Magica, but Mage is fun in it's own way.Mage: Sorcerer (Not Sorcerer's Crusade, just Sorcerer) : Once we got this booklet, we hardly ever played true mage again. The lower power level is a lot of fun. Plus it's a lot easier (IMHO) to make a group of characters that are all usefull and fun to play with this version.Werewolf : Hey, sure it's a bit strange at times, but playing a 500 lb killing machine with the mind of an eco-terrorist is kinda fun <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> . Plus, the focus on spiritualism, tribes, honor, etc is very cool. My second favorite Whitewolf game.Changeling : Not QUITE as cool as Werewolf, but close. This would be my second favorite game if it wasn't just so darn strange at times. Plus, the fact that the magic system uses terms like "actor" "prop" and "scene" to define things just rubs me the wrong way. But the whole "two lives" thing, the different courts and factions, etc... again, really cool concepts.Exalted : Now _THIS_ is a game of Whitewolf I can really sink my teeth into, and enjoy with no "But if only"s. I like every facet of this game, and it only gets better with every book they release.BESM : I'm an Anime lover. I'm a RPG lover. Cross the two and you get one happy person. Plus, the system is really nice in how flexible it is... I've run just about every type of game you can imagine with BESM. Cyberpunk, Fantasy (Dragonlance, as a matter of fact), Mecha, you name it. What really gets this system a vote is the compactness and the flexibility... When any of us gamers are going anywhere far away for a while (Cons, Renfairs, college trips, whatever) I just toss the one book in my pack, a handful of dice, and we scavange paper and pencils wherever we are going. Shadowrun : I love the setting, and I like the system... It's a bit complex at times, sometimes needlessly so IMHO (Calculating memory usage while decking gets to be a pain, for example), but it's got a lot to like too... the fact that gunshots are actualy a real threat, for example.Ars Magica : Ahhhh... old Ars... Havn't played it in a good while, but I have fond memories of this one...</blockquote>
