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.
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.
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.
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
