Default Re: Why I Strongly Dislike GURPS

What I love most about GURPS is that the designers actually care about reality.

When they first wrote their table of weights for medieval weapons, they didn't try to balance the table or decide what made sense to them. They brought in a bunch of weapons and weighed them.

That approach has an aesthetic appeal for me. If it doesn't appeal to you, then this isn't the game for you.
