Play something were weapons don't matter. ?

I like modern scenarios. I just want modern rpgs to reflect some semblance of reality.

FFG's narrative dice systems are absolutely not meant to reflect reality in any way. They are meant to make a narrative. I don't like this philosophy and strongly prefer simulationist-style systems, so I'm often fighting with this one to keep it tolerable to me.

I’m fine with Star Wars being a space opera, as it always was Flash Gordon. Simulation isn’t my interest in RPGs, I think video games handle crunch better and in a timely fashion. It’s the drive for game balance that I have a problem with, rpgs are not pvp and don’t really need much balance as the GM has an I win button anyways.

There's more to modernity than guns 'n' ammo-based action.

Indeed. Things like strobe lights, rain, black leather/latex outfits and katanas.

The 90s was the peak of modernity. Modern day can't hold candle to it.

...

Because the 90s would hold up a neon glowstick to the candle and go "Who's modern now?", and swagger off and draw some extraneous ammo pouches.

I love the first Blade, but the sequels are soooo bad.
