Was wondering about this and how it might not be the same as ones first system played. (let's not count general dice or battle maps etc. this time)

For me it might be either Mouse Guard 2e boxed set or DnD 5e Tomb of Annihilation book.

It was a game called The Dark Eye (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Eye_(role-playing_game)). It was weird but fun, and my first foray into ttrpg as a kid. After that I got into AD&D 2nd edition (with the weird backwards THAC0) and also Warhammer 40K (2nd edition). Yeah, I'm really showing my age here 😄

My father started us on the first edition of the Dark Eye (from his own uni days). I started to play that with my friends when I was about 16. Another friend borrowed us his books for the fourth edition. The first books I bought myself were the revised fourth edition.
