I was tragically born without any common fucking decency (or maybe this is from being an unsupervised child on the early internet) but I’ve also heard the game is just horribly bad and unfun from a game design perspective.
Zigmenthotep on YouTube covered F.A.T.A.L as part of their "Let's make us a character" series. It took four episodes, in a format that is usually one-and-done.
However bad you've heard the game is, I assure you it's worse.
The only game I've ever played with a more complicated character creation was the 5th edition of Hero System. There were a couple of steps that resemble calculus, but once you're done you know exactly how your character will fair in a lot of situations. If character creation was a little easier it would be my favorite superhero RPG.
It barely qualifies as a game, it's like a recipe for a game, which only includes ingredients, but not how to bake it.
Also, if you do manage to play, it's basically a rape simulator lol.
Also only white people exist because... "Historical accuracy", while also giving all the fictional races accents based on human dialects.
Ngl. I love lengthy character creation. I'd probably hate playing with such a complicated system tho... It sounds good for a sexy video game rpg tho 🤔 let the computer handle the calculations and all
Just know that character creation is reminiscent of the oldest D&D types, where you'd roll randomly. It is possible (I read a review of the game, not the system itself, thank god) to have a negative circumference of the anus.
