[–] lesbianspacevampire@ttrpg.network 0 points 3 years ago (1 child) Another shoutout for Fate! It's great permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TwilightVulpine@kbin.social 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) Fate is much more my jam when it comes to "rework for everything" systems. It fits narrative elements with mechanics without being constraining. Whenever I play PBTA I keep bouncing against the limits of the system because most of them are laser focused on emulating some sort of narrative genre, and often I want more from my characters than to just play out a selected arrangement of tropes. And as a GM I occasionally feature quests that pull from entirely different genres. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 1 point 3 years ago I really like Fate and hope to one day find a group that clicks with it. It avoids many of the tropes I'm tired of in D&D. But in my experience it does need players who are going to do more than phone it in. Passive players can really drag it down. "I dunno I hit him with my sword" kind of works in D&D but not very well in Fate. permalink fedilink source parent
