Title: Profiling, Fall 2004
Post by: Michael S. Miller on October 26, 2004, 07:44:58 PM
It's been over a year since the last profiling thread. Let's go again. To recap, the questions are:

What are the last three role-playing games that you actually, really played?

What three role-playing games, out of all the ones you've ever played, have you enjoyed the most?

What three role-playing games that you have not played would you most like to try at the moment?


The Rules of Profiling, according to Ron:

No freebies or extras, as in, "Game X, Game Y, and ... and Game Z and Game A!!" Three each, no more and no less.

Time is irrelevant. If the last three games you played were ten years ago, they still count.

Don't comment on other people's profile or the games in this thread. Start up a thread if you'd like, although choose your forum carefully, or send a private email.

If you'd like, sign off your post with your real name if it's not your username. First name or both first & last, whichever.

If the last post on this thread is more than a week old, please DO NOT post to it. We don't resurrect old threads around here.

For people who played a ton of GenCon one-shots, or if people are wondering about convention/demo play in general, they do count if you want them to, otherwise, skip'em.

And for reference, links to the previous profiling threads, in chronological order:

What are the last three role-playing games that you actually, really played?

- Hurlements: old french game (1989) that I finally put my hands down this summer, and right now I'm running what should be an extended campaign.

- Lonewolf (d20) : I tried that one from the player perspective in July, forgetable and not my cup of tea (at least I tried some d20).

- Homemade Middle Earth game, inspired by Midnight and set sixty to ninety years after the victory of Sauron during the "Ring War". Fine, and I learned that I could get to play a pure heroic character.


What three role-playing games, out of all the ones you've ever played, have you enjoyed the most?

- Hurlements
- Sorcerer
- Over the edge (just weirdness and a love story in NYC)


What three role-playing games that you have not played would you most like to try at the moment?

- Rêves de Dragons (the Dream Ouroboros ?) : another old french game (1986) that I have had for ten years but never came to GM or play. A game about glamour and dreams.

- Maléfices : yet another old french game (1988). Surnatural and strange investigations set during the Belle Epoque (1870-1914). Somehow like Chill, but with a definitive french touch.

- Miles Christi : french game about the Templar, set during the first and  second crusades, the world is a mix between pure historical, and medieval fantasy.


Geez, I just realize that I'm in pure old good games that I never played when they came along, too busy playing WoD at the time...

Um. Working under the assumption that home brews and technicalities count:

Everway (not a technicalitiy at all)
Prime Time Adventures (technicality -- discussed premise and characters, didn't even finish character creation)
OTE (not exactly a technicality -- this would be either Beth's Hub game or my Cthpk game, which uses OTE's rules. Possibly WARP is the technical term)

Favorite:

OTE
Everway
Chaosium's system (whether BRPs or Pendragon -- I'm considering it basically the same system)

[I am disqualifying all the demos I played in due to insufficient experience to know if they bounce any of the above.]

Most Coveted:

[I am disqualifying any game I even started on my own, even if it's just group character creation. I am not disqualifying games I had demoed to me at the Forge booth.]

Dogs in the Vineyard
Nine Worlds
Sorcerer (a real technicality, as this was actually a full run at the Forge booth, but it's the first that occurs to me for this spot)
