Arnaud Gomes [RPG account]I have been reading the rules of ACKS, and I might well use it for my next D&D-ish campaign. Or I may use Héros & Dragons (french SRD5 derivative) instead. Or maybe AD&D2, or BX Advanced, or any random Microlite variant? How do you choose your system?
Frotz@nono I look at player experience and what play style they think they like,and compare that to ease of initial entry + ability to allow the player to increase the complexity of their character if they choose. Some systems excel at the former and some at the latter. There aren’t a tremendous amount that allow both without extensive customization/house rules.
