My partner and I enjoy worldbuilding and we like bringing our world to different systems and seeing how our world looks and acts through the lens of that system.

For simplicity sake, imagine a typical fantasy setting. Elves, dwarves, orcs, magic, yadda. What would be your system of choice for playing in it?

If you don’t like your standard fantasy, obviously this question is not directed at you.

Bonus points if you tell me what you like about your chosen setting in relation to a fantasy setting.

Absent knowing anything else, and assuming most of the “usual” fantasy tropes are in place?

Either Savage Worlds, or Colville’s Draw Steel depending on how I feel and how my upcoming experimental play of the second one goes.
