In the Lord of the Rings fandom there’s a persistent debate whether balrogs, or Durin’s Bane specifically, have wings. The text in Fellowship is ambiguous whether what it is describing are literal wings or something else wing-like.

It’s a different genre but I also appreciate Call of Cthulhu’s mechanics. Roll-under is a bit weird but I appreciate that you’re rolling against your own skills rather than some number set by the DM side of things. The DM just has to decide if it’s normal, hard, or very hard difficulty.
As far as a complete paradigm shift, Alice Is Missing is a fantastic game. The difficulty lies in finding three other people who can play a serious RPG about a missing child in a small town.
