Disney and Sora?

No, I think the built-in setting thing is a thing. Even at the height of Fate's popularity, you weren't hearing about Fate Core as much as you were hearing about some of the licensed games based off of it, like Dresden Files or Leverage.

Yeah, it's gnomes. Plus, plenty of gnomes without beards. Gnomes have been more fey/elf-adjacent and less "Dwarf-lite" since the 90's

I think that going modular with "class"/career design, ala D20 Modern or even Star Wars Saga Edition, could potentially work well. Going the traditional 5e class-and-archetype route where multiclassing is an afterthought or charop thing would not be a very good fit.

They aren't part of the Big Two anymore, but World of Darkness hasn't gone anywhere; they just released a new Vampire: The Masquerade video game less than two months ago. For a long period Fate was basically the non-D&D/D20 system. Maybe the lack of a built-in setting hurt its staying power...

I once killed a PC with Diablo 3. Always a pity. I'm enjoying Witcher 3 quite a bit but boy does Geralt control really clunkily. Navigating tight areas in particular does not feel good in the slightest

Let me introduce you all to the wonderful world of microfiche!

If you haven't played Fate Accelerated, it's still just basically that, only instead of Aspects everything is boiled down to five "approaches" and everyone tries to use the one they have the biggest number in, even if it makes no sense. I love the idea of Fate but I've never been particularly...

I mean I'm on record as a major Fate skeptic (and even more major Fate Accelerated hater) so it really does not surprise me to see their FitD stuff selling much better, but Fate was practically the center of the "but what else?" discussion in TTRPGs for so long, and I know it has it's devoted...

Recommendation for next year's nomination thread: Include a short "this what a forum is, this is how to post" primer for all the newcomers.

Feels like we're due for a new Fate sometime relatively soon. YMMV but I still don't think they've gotten that where it needs to be

Now, I'm not going to say that there aren't things that are worth getting worked up over. There definitely are. Things like "should I get to have basic human rights?" or "which potato is best?" But no RPG property (or sub-property, for that matter!) should be getting anybody up to a stage where...

Does Call of Cthulhu have you rolling so many d10s (I mean d100 but come on) because it makes sense to explore non-Euclidean spaces with non-Platonic solids?

BG3 any% RNG manip run is happening when?

I choose my favorite settings based on how they closely they hew to my perfect amount of words.
