Running a Cypher System (Numenera) game.
Playing in a Cypher System (sci-fi setting with Farscape influence) game and a Star Wars Edge of the Empire game.
SW Edge is great, but it really needs the right kind of group to work. It feels like it requires so much creativity compared to other systems.
I really dislike the Genesys System. Dice are too fiddly and swingy, and it's hard for me to gauge my odds based on the dice pools. But it's a fun campaign overall so I tolerate it. I'd much rather play a Star Wars game in most any other system (except Starfinder, terrible for other reasons IMO).
