Thinking about Chaosium's Nephilim this morning got me wondering. How many of you passed on an RPG that looked interesting because your usual gaming group made it clear they wanted nothing to do with it or you otherwise knew they wouldn't go for it? For me, Nephilim, Kult, and In Nomine fell into this category. Interestingly, the group was hugely into World of Darkness and Vampire & Werewolf in particular.
Thankfully, this has never been a problem for me. My gaming groups, or at least player bases, have always been extremely keen to try new systems, sometimes even systems that I very much do not want. I even got to run Teenagers from Outer Space, which we do not talk about, and Sailor Moon, which we do.
@Teyrnon oh that is interesting to me that you had a WoD crowd that was uninterested. My own experience has been that the WoD crowd is WAY more open to trying new TTRPGs that D&Ders, especially in similar tone.
@thoughtpunks Oh, the group in question was perfectly willing to try various games, just not anything with gnostic or otherwise overt religious themes and motifs.
