Coriolis did away with 1s on dice being bad for you (with one exception; rolling a 1 on a radiation-removal die means that radiation's permanent, just like MYZ's Rot.) and I think it works out great. At least it did for the one game my group played.

I do find it interesting that its FTL travel requires cryostasis; apparently the Dark Beyond the Stars can do things to a character that can be summed up as "What happens next is too horrifying to describe. Let's just say you've gone permanently and irreversibly insane and you need to make a new character as a result. Your old character is as good as dead. Trust me."

Cyberpunk 2020 is, in theory and from a nostalgia point of view, my favorite rpg, but Red did it ZERO favors and really drags it down in my opinion.

I have a very nostalgia-fueled soft spot for Cyberpunk 2020 too, but I'm all right with Red. (Mostly because it decanonized a lot of Cyberpunk 2030, and I loving HATED what that game did to the lore of 2020.)
