Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kichwas" data-source="post: 1256156" data-attributes="member: 891">That's interesting.I bought GURPS Traveller and felt "Finally GURPS gets a setting that fits it, and finally Traveller gets a system that fits it."The two seem like a perfect match for each other. If I ever did GURPS science fiction again it would either be Traveller or Transhuman Space. Likewise if I ever did Traveller again the only mechanics I would ever consider for it is GURPS. That said, I find GURPS really fails in Sci Fi elsewhere, and Traveller's own mechanics always felt clunky to me.I'm noticing some trends over all in these posts - certain items appear a lot. A good percentage of the posts here mention the same books over and over. Along with individual tastes, there are patterns.They tend to be the items that get a lot of hype in the community, that everyone says will be great, and then come out and we see the hype die down...Seems like we really like to pull the wool over our own eyes.Perhaps we should look at this list, and also make a list of "what did you buy expecting to hate but end up getting a lot out of anyway", and use those lists to figure out what we really ought to be hyping... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />If I went out to my entire gaming collection I would find a lot more stuff...Going back to my d20 collection, this thread is making me consider a trip to the local store to sell back a few items that I 'remembered' after reading through here and thinking "oh yeah, that's on the bottom shelf isn't it?"</blockquote>
