If you have a tabletop game based on multiple universes colliding and coming through portals into the real world; how do you make the disparate elements of these realms and realities interesting and unique without it seeming just like crossover slop or having the strangeness fade into the background?

I'm trying to do a post-apocalypse sort of gonzo setting with STALKER anomolies and weird beings from other worlds, but not in a retarded way, unlike RIFTS.

Originally RIFTs, but I found it too complex and the setting too gay for what I'm after. Savage Worlds RIFTs was better, but still avoiding it. GURPs is trash of course, so I can't use that either. So probably Basic Roleplaying (BRP), Delta Green, or homebrew.

Now why don't you answer my question instead of your pathetic, failed attempt at "gatekeeping", little chuddie?

Uh, the portals opened like, 15 years ago, so things are still chaotic but already there are people who's entire lives have known the portals to be open

I was going to, but since you decided to be a little faggot about a reasonable question, you can go ask reddit, instead.

You're kind of a bitch but use each of your proposed systems when the players cross into each respective reality

The only reason you'd think that is because there is no system, and the only reason you wouldn't have a system is because you either are looking for one or because you don't have a game in the first place and want to waste everyone's time with inane hypotheticals.

You are part of a politically motivated outsider force that wants to "colonize" /tg/ in an attempt to gatekeep what you view as intruders, when you yourself are an intruder.

There are hundreds of tabletop games with no defined setting and creating campaign settings is a fundamental part of creating and running a game. I specifically asked about universe colliding because my intention was to have character creation rules where people can have different mechanics based on their home universe (such as magic, science, martial arts, etc) without it feeling too hackneyed. You responded to this as though I'm baiting for no reason as though I would go to the trouble of making a thread to annoy you and specifically you.

You believe that because you're an autistic little faggot that is the cancer killing /tg/.

You are deranged. I have been using /tg/ since it was a few isolated threads on /b/ and 4chan since 2005. I have no interest in politics - it's just another form of shitty spam clogging this board. I won't be browbeaten by a head case faking oldfag valor over a valid query.

Use Mini Six for the system.
Recognise the only difference between "slop" and "gay setting" and "fading into the background" is your own personal taste.
Throw in whatever you like.
