Anyone else hoping that FFG might use Genesys to launch some new material for Midnight?
Genesys Midnight?
I was hoping for a 5e version, but a Genesys version is perfectly acceptable.
I agree !
we've been waiting for a long time for its return.
would be nice to get a word from the team. In the meantime, it'll be good idea to contact the original authors of the game.
Bump... :-)
Midnight is the FFG setting I'm most hoping for, actually.
What's so great about the setting?
I played the midnight board game FFG did and I bought the movie during the holiday sale for $1 (but I haven't got around to watching it yet).
If this came out as a setting for genesys why should I be interested?

The basic idea is this: Imagine Tolkien's Middle Earth. Now imagine Tolkien's Middle Earth if Sauron had won.
Thats Midnight .

The RPG is probably my favourite campaign setting bar none, and it had unique rules added on to the d20 chassis that really supported the setting's flavour. Like Simon Retold said, it's essentially Middle Earth if Sauron won.
The books and the majority of the artwork were gorgeous (in a bleak/oppressive way).
The movie does not do justice to the Midnight brand, at all. And while I have Runebound Midnight, I have never gotten around to playing it (too many games, so little time!)... but it's my understanding that it was one of the weaker Runebound expansions.
I'm sure if I told my friends that I was going to resurrect our Midnight campaign from a few years back (or even start a new one), they would be all in.
Even if they don't convert Midnight, all the lore is available so it shouldn't be too hard to play it as a fantasy setting.
Midnight is my favorite setting ever. If they would publish a new version of it using just any system, I'd support it.
This is definitely something I need. This is one of the best campaign settings that gets the least attention.
