[Simplicity]

Fate is a good idea, as long as it's very limited availability. The game just has so many random events that it's easy for the luckier player to shine. Winning by rolling higher is not all that fun. At least with fate, you get to have some choices on those die rolls.

It also lets you have interesting events like: on a 1, the Grim Reaper kills you outright. Lose all lives. Without fate, that'd be pretty arbitrary.
