I have been playing D&D with some childhood friends for about 4 years now. The reason? We played when we were kids (think AD&D) and that is what our DM plays with his own children. The main draw of this game system is because of D&D Beyond and it's digital tools for online play and character creation.
Why mention all of this in a review of the Talisman TTRPG? I cannot stress enough how much MORE I enjoy Ian Lemke's system than D&D (even with the WOTC digital tools and et-cetera) The 3d6 system is just better for players and GMs! The books, even with their spelling errors, organizational issues and poor index, are superior to D&D when it comes time to playing the game. Keep in mind, I am NOT a great fan of the Talisman board game in particular.
Honestly, Talisman TTRPG should be the de-faco industry standard for role-play games. Take notes game-designers, the bar has been raised! -Gweilo-D
