As somebody who understands the Fate system inside and out, there were plenty of parts where I clenched up and thought "wrong" or "that's not exactly how that works". BUT, I love that there is a public library putting this info out there. I love that somewhere there's a table playing Fate instead of a "traditional" RPG, flexing their creativity beyond the limits of simply Lizards and Lairs. I love that this was worth someone's time to record. ...Lose one star for continuing to call the GM/Referee/Etc a "Dungeon Master". That's their word.

I've read all the Fate Core rulebooks and dozens of Worlds booklets, and played it for years. Fate Core has problems: It's innumerate, low math. For example: no falling-damage rules but apparently how much a character is hurt depends on dramatic needs rather than the raw laws of physics in relation to height fallen, with a limit due to terminal velocity. Fate Core is also a cushion for the emotions, geared for people ill-prepared to accept that sometimes their characters will have bad breaks, or even die. If you are close to running out of Consequence slots, you can Concede and somehow the universe keeps your character alive! Then the GM rewards your ineptitude into getting your character into such a bad situation, by giving you extra Fate Points so the character can spring up fighting in the next scene. It's a "Fate Point Economy" of rhythmic cinematic ups and downs in regular dramatic "beats" like a TV show, which does not happen that way in "real life". Also the benefits and drawbacks aren't scaled. Players state their intentions, and the character's action is interpreted under one of the four Actions of Fate, fine. But absolutely every Aspect is +2 or re-roll, every Stunt is +2. There's no tactical finesse, or daring to say that this factor is significantly more important than that factor. Other RPGs may have a thought-out table of different-sized modifiers rather than a blanket chunky one-size-fits-all. Now there is some effort by the GM not to allow a "weaksauce" Compel, and make sure Aspects really are grand enough to be worth a +2, but tactical finesse in Fate, the marshalling to stack odds in your favour, is so chunky as to be meaningless.

I agree with J B. Fate Core is one hundred percent one of those systems that is designed to leave behind super detailed mechanics and realistic, life simulating game characteristics for the express purpose of emphasizing a collaborative story. Not to say it isn’t without its faults.

I got the Pugmire core rule book last christmas. My group are used to play 5e Dungeons and dragons, and I can¨t wait to play this! But it will be mostly homebrew I think, so that would be a lot of work. I¨ve never been a DM before. I really enjoy your video and it has helped me with understanding things easier, thank you so much for making this video!
