Anyway, I was wondering if anyone can enlighten me about what the major RPG systems (i.e., rulesets) are. Here I am trying not to be specific about campaign setting but just concentrate on the rule systems.
Which is somewhat ironic since Runequest apparently was just an adaption of Steve Perrin's D&D home rules (something I just found out about recently). That's not to say that that Runequest was not different enough to be considered a system in its own right.
True, but pretty much everything was an adaptation of somebody's house rules back then. There are some key concepts Tweet adapted for 3e (e.g., prestige classes) that weren't dependent on RQ's roots as a D&D kit-bash.
