SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
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.

Anyone here played anthropomorphic games?

Albedo and my own book way back took the approach that the form tended to give no big advantages. And what little one got needed training to use else it was either not very effective, or actually a hindrance.

Just because you have horns in no way means you know how to use them, or use them effectively. Much like everyone can throw a punch or kick. But few can do that effectively without some training. Same with enhanced senses.

It was so on my book partially because I was tired of people wanting X beast folk as some sort of numerical advantage rather than because it was interesting. And because it fit the setting.

I just got one titled Mutants in the Now. Not the best title since a few people will assume is a Blades in the Dark hack but it's not.

MitN is actually a modern retropunk version of TMNT & Other Strangeness. I'd call it an OSR game of TMNT myself. It is a simplified take if the Palladium System and it makes a lot more sense yet it is very much an updated, more versatile TMNT rpg.
