I am interested in what RPGs the people here are playing. Tell me about the cool systems you are trying out or about your campaigns.

Currently running Age of Ashes for PF2e. It's been great so far. PF2e is my preferred system to GM in as it has rules for everything you can think of, which from a GM's pov is great as I can consistently rule the same in each session or in each campaign we play.

Also play DnD5e pbp on a community discord server and I live play Delta Green (Call of Cthulhu).

There are plenty of systems out there to try and I would suggest trying a few of them. DnD is obviously the most popular, but may not fit the type of world / game you prefer.

How far along are you with AoA? I'm just about to finish book 4 with my crew. I really haven't been drinking the kool-aid with this AP. Book 5 looks decent, and 6 looks fantastic, but MAN it feels like they just forgot to tell the PCs what the actual plot is, throughout like... the entire story.

We're still in book 2. I know what you mean though, Ive added some stuff and changed a few things to make it a little more interesting. I don't think I'd run it again tbh, but I want to see it through even if it kills me lol

2e has quickly become my favorite system to GM. Soooo much easier. I'm running some PFS scenarios and converted curse of Stradh. Will be starting quest for the frozen flame soon.

I GMed a game in 5e from level 1 to 7, fully homebrew. It burnt me out. I never knew if an encounter was going to be easy or deadly, things swing so much if you're not willing to do the math and think ten steps ahead.

I did some GMing for Pathfinder 1e. That's a system I prefer to play in, not GM. Ran curse of the Crimson Throne and the player power creep was making it super easy for my players. I had to modify a bunch to not make it a cakewalk for my little power gamers. Ended up essentially re-writing the last book. So pleased at how much easier 2e is.

I've never GMed another system tbh. But from what I've seen playing DnD5e, I'd never gm that.

I may try GMing CoC at some point for a change
