Role Playing Games RPG MMORPG

Never played it or BLB but Orbital Blues sounds a lot like Scum & Villainy, a Forged In The Dark game, if you'd like something else to consider :D Similar three-stat build, similar setting, also has Gambits (though not sure if they're used the same way), and Complications (possibly similar to OB's Troubles).

Looks like the big difference might be that S&V (and all FitD games) has a cinematic flashback mechanic. If something is going badly wrong, like your handover to the creepy guys who hired you turns out to be an ambush, you can say "AKSHUALLY earlier on I did this this that and this, and so you see, the urchins I paid a few creds to pop the baddies in the eye with their catapults will allow us to escape safely, probably". It won't always work because it still depends on your dice, but it lets you treat the game like a heist film.

Yes, I just used this response to not at all answer your question and to talk about a totally different thing I like instead, because that is how I roll.
