Mage: The Ascension - I'm super happy that TTRPGs are having a renaissance but there are so many systems out there and D&D isn't anywhere near the best. You can imagine this like the board game revolution and how "Catan is like so amazing" when actually it's a rather mechanically underwhelming and repetitive game.
D&D is a role-playing game with almost no support for social actions, it's bizarre.
It takes an especially skilled GM to run M:tA. They need to be able to handle things getting very weird very fast. But it’s what makes the game and stories so great. Toon was like that too.
