I'm here once again asking for your knowledge support.
I have plenty of time to waste and few ways to fill it, so to fill my empty mind lately I went back to my old RPG ruleset, with the intention of modernizing it, streamlining it, if necessary to entirely rewrite and popamolizing it.
But it's been 30 years since I wrote the first edition, I'm pretty sure the kids today play with very different rules (I shuddered when I heard about the 1 hp trash mobs in DnD 5th).
What I need you to do: would you kindly tell me which are the most used and best rulesets and (not too) briefly explain them, or at least their strong points? The alternative would be to go somewhere, download all the pdfs I could find and study them, which would take weeks, perhaps months. You can shorten this to a matter of hours, minutes even if you're really worthy denizens of the (at least once) prestigious RPGCodex.
