Yup, came Gere to say this: Japan, fir example.Call of Cthulhu? It already is in some countries.
I love, love, love Traveller...but...I can't really see a scenario where it is anything but niche.Another vote for Traveller.
- Rich lore; infinite variety of worlds; possibility for a range of characters that can work together in a team setting.
- It's early enough that it feels mostly independent of OD&D; too many others are so consciously responding to the D&D of their time, that without the point of reference, they would not find the same purchase.
That makes sense. A Supers game allows for the "dramedy" CR is (best?) known for, btw. I can see it working. The MCU was everywhere and the hottest thing for a whole decade. Could have been the time of the Supers RPG.In an alternate universe where the Critical Role crew (or equivalent) had decided to start playing a superheroes game (maybe M&M, but I don't think it would matter much) at the same time that the MCU took off, i can imagine a scenario in which supers gaming took the gaming adjacent nerdosphere by storm instead of D&D.
I mean, it's still going pretty hot.That makes sense. A Supers game allows for the "dramedy" CR is (best?) known for, btw. I can see it working. The MCU was everywhere and the hottest thing for a whole decade. Could have been the time of the Supers RPG.
And they deserve credit for keeping Star Wars alive during a time period where there was a dearth of new material. No movies or toys it was just WEG making Star Wars stuff for the most part.When West End Games had the Star Wars license, it basically was the "other" entry point RPG for people. I don't know if it was ever actually bigger than D&D, but it was huge at the time.
