D&D 3.5 set in Forgotten Realms. Class choice is anything core, race choice is anything that has a Tolkien counterpart.

Freeform Big Bang Theory roleplay, in its own subreddit. Any and all resolutions that'd normally be settled by dice are instead determined by upboats/downboats.

I'd say something like modern supernatural fantasy (Twilight), Magical School (Harry Potter), or "Generic Fantasy" (Lord of the Rings) would all be the most normalfag friendly, if only because the exhaustive movies allow normalfags to understand these settings in the easiest way possible.

It pains me to put LoTR on that list, but because of it, normalfags understand dwarves, elves, orcs, and going on adventures with swords and bows.

Without any furries at all? Hmm… good question.


 No.228196

The most normal fag RPGs are the ones in popular conciseness, were featured somewhere in popular media/were on the big bang theory.

For miniwargames? Maybe Xwing, as its a well known ip among normal fags already, and it is relatively simple to get into. Maybe 40k, simply because that is one of the most ubiquitous one out there currently. This isn't even to disparage 40k or x wing, but they are by far the most common mini wargames I have seen played by a country mile. Honestly when I first started thinking about this I figured it would be historical wargames, but those really are overshadowed.

As for board games? Settlers of Catan and Munchin, assuming we aren't counting games like Monopoly.

40k is popular but still pretty niche. It's a lot like metal; the aesthetic is pretty deliberately normie-repellent even if a shitload of people like it.

its the 3x's dumbed down version of burning wheel that has slowly but inevitably moved closer to dnd each time.
