My game group finally opened te discussion of what to do next. I've been running Shadowrun for years now, and I want to do something else, and I've got some ideas for something a bit more player-driven, and I've been thinking about something like Kingmaker-but-better.
Only at least one player really loves the Shadowrun campaign (which is nice to hear of course) and doesn't want us to stop.
Meanwhile I'm thinking about whether to use Burning Wheel or Reign.

1) Torg. I think this one has been enjoying something attention as of late. The way it handles transitions from one realm to another is similar to WandaVision.
2) Call of Cthulhu - I doubt this one needs any intro. Just mentioning it.
3) Paranoia ... on second thought. I guess not. Both CoC and Paranoia tend to not be so player-driven.

I do see Torg mentioned a lot lately. Not sure why. I admit I can never keep Torg and Rifts apart in my head, but it's not really what I'm looking for.
CoC is great of course, and I've actually been thinking about Delta Green, but that's a very different direction than what I'm currently talking about.
Paranoia is something I'd love to play in, but not something I'm going to run.

In Rifts, physics/magic/etc works the same everywhere. Therefore everyone needs to be superpowered, supernatural, or have supertechnology armor just to survive.
In Torg, physics/magic/etc works different in different realms. This lets the world have wildly different technology and magical powers, and political structures without breaking everything everywhere. You can be just some dude in jeans and reasonably survive in appropriate realms.
