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.

Dream Park RPG and Jovian Chronicles RPG were the only ones.

(I'd include Cyberpunk 2020 and Mekton Zeta and Star Wars RPG Revised and Expanded, but they were all continuations of earlier games.)

Your call, but King Pondsmith sounds better than King Trump;).

And that reminds me to nominate Sengoku. It's a better Japanese RPG than either L5R or Bushido, and the first edition was from 1999, it seems:D!

Quote from: NeonAce;1034592Street Fighter: The Storytelling Game.

It was a far better game than it had any right to be.  I had a successful two year campaign and it held up very well.

The quality and balance in the supplements plummeted after Secrets of Shadowloo though.  If I were to Referee it again there would be no mutant animals, no cyborgs, no jujitsu and no cartwheel kicks.  There definitely wouldn't be any mutant animal cyborgs jujitsu fighters performing cartwheel kicks!

Mutant jujitsu fighters peforming cartwheel kicks is pretty much what Street Fighter is supposed to be:D!

I played quite a bit of Earthdawn, Alternity, and LUG's Star Trek. I enjoyed all of them.

It is. But the rules for these were poorly written.  In combination they were an abomination.

Most of the 90s I was playing newer editions of older games. The only released in 90s game I played was Dangerous Journeys/Mythus.

Well, it was written by White Wolf. That should be par for the course;).

Of the games strictly published in the 90's and Ive played in the 90's there's only one Earthdawn. I will give Shadowrun an honourable mention, for while it was published in 89' my FLGS didn't get it in stock until 90' and we played it right through the 90's

Quote from: Christopher Brady;1034788If 2020, which was a massive departure from the original Cuberpunk game doesn't count,

How was 2020 different from the original 1988 Cyberpunk?
You can shake your fists at the sky. You can do a rain dance. You can ignore the clouds completely. But none of them move the clouds.
