I want to run a game

So I want to run a game, but I'm not entirely sure what system to use. I'd like to run something that interests a lot of people, and something that I'm comfortable running.


Some games I may consider:

Changeling the Lost 2e:
- I haven't run Changeling before, but am interested in maybe trying it out.

Cyberpunk 2020:
- This is one of the games I've played the most, but I've never run a game of it before.

Dungeons and Dragons 5E:
- I recently canceled a Tal'dorei game that used to be very active but then fell into passivity over the summer. It was a lot of fun though. I'm more interested in the roleplaying aspect of it than dungeon crawling, but I do use tactical battle maps that I whip up in Photoshop.

Exalted 3E:
- I have more experience with this game than any other game combined. I've run it daily for a decade. I'm already running an active DB game, but could maybe consider a smaller side-game if there's enough interest.

Pugmire:
- I've never actually run it before but since it's similar to D&D, I doubt there would be any problems getting started.

Vampire the Masquerade 5E (V5):
- I'm very interested in running this game, but I've never had much time reading up on the rules yet and my Vampire lore knowledge isn't up to date.


Other:

I have access to two Swedish games called Eon and Noir that I could run games for, but I doubt there's a huge community for that here.

Never be afraid to run something uncommon, even if that means you have to teach the entire system to the players. RPoLers love novelty, so offering a game that isn't on the list will get some interest.

What Lone Paladin said.  Don't be afraid to offer a game just because it is somewhat obscure, especially if it's a game you'd really enjoy running.

I am ALWAYS interested in Exalted 3E.  The two Swedish games could be interesting also?

I'm always up for more Exalted. The problem is player acquisition.

Okay, I've decided to give Exalted a try.

The question is what location and what type: Solar, DBs, or both? I'm fine with mixed groups as long as the DB players don't mind being generally weaker than the Solar players.

I want to avoid the West and the North because my other game has revolved around those areas.

Solars and I generally like the south and the south east.
