I've been thinking some about why I like D&D better than other RPGs. Eventually, I came to a conclusion - the separation of game and setting. I want to develop my own game worlds, and I can't think of any other game that isn't tied in to a particular setting - except GURPS, where try as I might, I don't like the rules that much. I quite like the World of Darkness ruleset, if it wasn't tied up with the damn World of Darkness, which has setting-itis in a bad way. Traveller and Alternity have enough development room that you don't have to touch on the setting, and might someday be cool. But I'm looking forward to the d20 Modern book coming out - that will allow me to develop a whole lot of things under familiar rules, in any setting I choose.
