    The one thing FATAL has going for it is how terrible it is. Any improvement would make it not so perfectly horrible, and thus not as good.

      Palladium was foundational to everything in RIFTS and it was clear the overlap was just supposed to be implied knowledge, especially from the later rulebooks.

      It was a bit need you had to pick and choose what to do with. Your cyber knight with AR and SDC hitpoints is dead the second a child brings out a Wilks laser pea shooter with a full eclip But in an SDC environment that same cyber knight is an absolute terror. The world building through Erin Tarn is what makes the books entertaining even when you don't even play it IMHO

        I would just casually read the rule books for fun. I had binders of Palladium NPCs with mapped towns and cities. No campaign ever got off the ground, but it did develop my love of worldbuilding.

              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.

              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.

                Shouldn't the labels be swapped? Is common decency keeping F.A.T.A.L. from pursuing players? F.A.T.A.L. is antithetical to common decency. Decency keeps players away from F.A.T.A.L.

                      Honestly FATAL isnt even fun to read its just mad cringe. Like the most in depth look into the mind of an incel.

                      Yeah, basically a complete listing of the kind of "jokes" edgy internet dweebs made and then checked to see the reaction before they decided if they meant it or not.

                            I guess it could be sped up with a computer just generating the random character

                            Yes, but then you'd have to actually play FATAL, and you really don't want that.

                              The Cypher system is one of the most ingenious, elegant, immersive, and flexible TTRPG systems ever created and I will die on this hill.

                                I have a morbid fascination with it, and one of the things that keeps dragging me back to it is the very weird ways in which it is, surprisingly, *progressive*. FATAL makes a distinction between sex and gender (though throws it away), and also recognises asexuality as valid (despite not understanding it).

                                    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.

                                    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

                                      My favorite thing about fatal is that you can read several reviews of it, all will be summed up vety similarly, but it induces a verbose disgust that leads to every review being a distinct archive of points where each reviewer got sufficiently pissed off at the creator of the game for publishing it. For all I hear of the misogyny, of which I trust the reviewers is abundant, every review leaves me thinking that this man believes things about men that should offend the entire human species.

                                          I just wish someone would combine TMNT & Other Strangeness's character creation (any animal etc.,) with Spore or some other creature creation engine in a CRPG. it'd be tough to balance but holy hell would that be something fun
