Hello all. I've been away from RL for a while since I've discovered Secrets of the Seventh Sea and by far it's the best RPG system I've played so far! Creating character is so fun
Anybody here is another 7th Sea fan?
I quite like both the setting and the system, though neither one are my absolute favorites in their respective catagories. Still, it is a rather good game, especially if you could get a group that works together well.
I've got the d20 version, Swashbuckling Adventures, on my wishlist over at DriveThrugRPG. I love pirates...but alas, I've spent all my money recently on Ravenloft material.

For me it's the skills system. I've always felt limitated by the class system of D&D but I don't like the no class at all from other RPGs
7th Sea got something right in between that's perfect for me: the skills system. It's basically professions you choose that give you a selection of skills. They had a lot of versality to you character which class switching doesn't. Yes the feat system does that too but it never quite satisfied me.
Interesting, I always resent more or less the same restriction, often my character concept ask for a skill or two that is not class skill for my class and i find it frustrating to multiclass for only one skill or two.
