This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Having received Arduin Eternal, it looks after a quick readthrough that Arduin will find it's one true system before Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, and even Greyhawk.

Quote from: Reckall;347305And, if anybody remembers it, the old "Ghostbusters" system by West End Games for "The Middleman" :D

Are you referring to the MiddleMan TV show?

Now THAT is a game I want to play.

Quote from: jibbajibba;348557How about the Dark Tower universe

Was this even an RPG, though? I mean, fair enough, but it was kind of the unspoken part of the premise of the OP that we're talking about settings that have had ONE or more RPG releases, and have not yet found the right system for them. Not "settings you'd like to see as an RPG".
