Cyberpunk Interest check!

[Kite]

I'm a big fan of Cyberpunk, and I'm wondering who else is interested in playing in a Cyberpunk setting, or even GMing for one (I can't really run one at the moment. ^^;)

I usually expect PvP in such a setting, so I prefer using D20 Modern as a rule-base, or something similar, if it strikes your fancy. In my opinion, this helps to streamline the game, especially in violent player interactions.

Tell me what you think here!

Screw it, I'll bite. I'm stupidly new here, but I've always been a fan of cyberpunk and pretty much anything that's -punk.

I'd be able to DM if no one else even remotely wants to, because I'd really rather not run something when I've only just gotten here.

...And, you know. I suck at DMing. Much better at writing characters than I am at guiding them.

I'd like to see what other people's takes on a setting like this would be, and if we start implementing Shadowrunny world styles, hey, that'd be neat. Playing with magic in cyberpunk always seems to make some really neat character dichotomies.

Welcome.

Personally, I'm just looking for a good Cyberpunk game. I haven't experienced Shadowrun, so I have no idea how those rules are balanced.

The actual tabletop is kind of a mess. However, the world concept's neat--which is what I'm getting at. Far as I recall, the balance of character classes is pretty much watered down 3.0 with less options, so... Archaic. Archaic's a good word for Shadowrun rules. Don't recommend them.

Plus, dice pools. Dice pools are gross. I'd recommend just playing the modified d20 Modern, like you suggested. There's no skill check for fluency in Korean.

D20 Modern is one of the systems I know really well, but I'm not in a position to GM for it.
