What is FATE Core | GameGorgon

[@mackenziestorey620]

Hard to book it (because the tipped over bookshelf would make it hard to run, and booking it is a term for running and a pun about books)

[@Althaven_]

Hahahaha, you won. :)

[@jquest716]

Do more Fate Core please. I love learning about new systems and you two are great at explaining systems. Thanks

[@Althaven_]

Dahww Thanks! We try! Let us know if there is something you want us to talk about

[@ArmoredCow]

@@Althaven_ Would be great if you could do some coverage of Venture City and how the powers are added into FATE Core.

[@caidenlipoth1247]

The aspect created by knocking over a book shelf would be called "cluttered"

[@muppetjoe870]

Playing our first game in an hour. Best video on Fate I have seen yet. Great stuff guys!!!!!

[@Althaven_]

Thanks! GLHF! :D

[@CaptainFlintthePirate]

This is just great. I have been looking at a lot of video on FATE. You all have the energy and joy that make me want to run this system.

[@Walawalacookie]

Ok, I just found you guys. I was looking for a overview of Fate Core. I haven't even watched passed the first 2 minutes and I already adore you guys. :) I subbed. Now if you will excuse me, back to the video. :D

[@Althaven_]

Bawwww, glad you enjoyed! Welcome! :)

[@Walawalacookie]

@@Althaven_ For sure, :) and your review made me really excited to try the game.

[@SergioLeRoux]

Feels longer than a year since I first watched this video. Just re-watched and really enjoyed it, I've been playing Fate with a regular group online for about two years now, and lately I've been able to GM a few one shots (one was the Dresden Files using the older version of Fate, and last I GMed some Eclipse Phase for an event during the lockdown). Always greedy for more Fate content. I've yet to finish watching your Fate campaign, this seems like a good time to catch up on that.

[@breeze5926]

Thank you for making this! I'm new to table top rpg's and I'm starting with Fate. No one else in my friends group has played any tt rpg's either so I will be gming. I'm reading through the Fate core book rn and some of the mechanics were confusing, but this and your other Fate videos are helping a ton!

[@andreasstokkeland6648]

Love that your promoting Fate while wearing a D&D shirt

[@Althaven_]

To be fair, the intent of this video isn't to promote FATE. It might feel that way, but that's just because we genuinely like it. :)

[@You-kd4qq]

I've started watching Croog's Fate core games and I've got to say I've had a good time so far. Love the system

[@Althaven_]

Two days is not long enough to come up with a an adequate KZbin comment to describe how happy that made Croog. :)

[@sebastiankleebinder3103]

Hey Guys i want to thank u both so much, I am about to make a maybe One-shot in Fate for a friends B-Day and i didnt had much time to prep. because a female friend (the Wife from that friend) just asked me about 2 Week ago if i have time to make a Fate One-shot for him. So i had just about 2 weeks time, but with he problem that i didnt had time in the first week to do anything and this week i worked every day extremly long and hard so that i instantly fell asleep after work, every Video i tried to watch how Fate works was to energie consuming and hard to understand for me (because of the extremly hard work week + i watched english tutorials, english isnt my first language, i think u already noticed it by reading my text) BUT, ure Video i dont know why is soooooo ez to understnad because of some reason ( maybe because of the style how u guys did the Video) I managed while i watched ure Video to get an idea what kind of Story i will do, how tf Fate works and how i will handle the Stunts, i also want to thank u for the Link with ure Fate Notes they helped me a lot. Ps: This will be my third time as a DM thats why i had such a hard time to understand how to create a World, because i only was the DM for 2 DnD games where my friends wantet to learn me how to be a Gamemaster/DM, i normaly dont have problems to get an Idea how the World will work or look like, but because in Fate ANYTHING is possible i had a hard time to understand how to Rule a Game with theoretically no rules. I never had before contact with Fate except that i watched one Game on YT but i didnt really understand the rules so your video helped me A LOT Thank u, Indigo and Groog for helping me create a World in Fate and understanding the rules LG Sebastian

[@Althaven_]

I am sooo happy you found our video and it was helpful! This is 100% why we do this! Please please please come back after and tell us the awesome story you and your table tell!

[@Tyler-Kearney]

What's your take on Core vs Accelerated vs Condensed? I know they're really similar, but for some reason I find accelerated seems to be the most interesting to me.

[@CerebrumMortum]

FATE Core is the best system I ever played, GMed or otherwise participated in. I LOVE it. YES YES YES to more Fate stuff

[@SolosferaRPG]

Great! I’m reading Fate and FAE. It is a little different, but cool! The core book is very vague, and the same topic is written in different difficult across the Pages. This make the reading good, but you have to re-read the same Pages to make sure you really understand. Your explanation was very clear, thnx!

[@You-kd4qq]

Talks about fate core, wears a dnd shirt

[@Althaven_]

Lol, glad the irony wasn't lost.

[@ParallelusReflection]

Yes please, we want more Fate Core :D

[@alexandersmith9144]

Thinking about running a Mecha Vs. Kaiju Campaign which is a setting powered by Fate! 😁.

[@bsgaming3773]

I would call it a physical obstacle.

[@lexscott3739]

Shin-busting bookshelf.

[@Althaven_]

Knowledge is power.

[@KWilliamWhite57]

You were right.

[@alexandersmith9144]

You should also try Mecha Vs Kaiju! Its an Anime and Tokusatsu inspired setting for Fate where the players are pilots of giant robots defending Japan from Giant Godzilla-like monsters! :)

[@River_StGrey]

I would call the bookshelf "Epistemologically Inaccessible" which would make any search, lore, or investigate rolls more frustrating and difficult. =P

[@Althaven_]

Hahahaha! I'm just gonna stuff this phrase into my little GM toolkit real quick... ;)

[@KaiHouston-m6j]

So...if I take "Bare knuckles champion" as a Stunt. Would I use that when I don't use a weapon? Or would that be too "strong"

[@NathanTZ]

Tokusatsu stuff? You got my attention Indigo. Where is the tokusatsu stuff for Fate Core?

[@You-kd4qq]

Danger, falling bookshelves

[@Althaven_]

If there's one thing we hope this video taught you, it's proper bookshelf safety.

[@You-kd4qq]

We've already had too many losses due to falling furniture

[@Althaven_]

All too true. May we never forget those who have fallen to the oak and particleboard scourge, tormentor of all who are seduced by the pursuit of literature.

[@Althaven_]

What do you think about Fate Core?

More Fate Core, please.

[@natebud9321]

Where do I watch the Fate game you are GMing?

[@justinsutton3943]

Great show thank you for making it! :)

[@Althaven_]

Dawh thank you for watching! Is there something you would want to see us cover?

[@justinsutton3943]

@@Althaven_Sorry I did not answer this question sooner. I really enjoyed your teaching of Marvel heroic role-play. I also find this interesting: www.basicfantasy.org/ I think covering Basic Fantasy would be helpful to those who dont have a lot of money to spend. This is just a friendly suggestion you guys appear to be doing great without my suggestions so far. Feel free to ignore this one if you have too much on your plate already.

[@Althaven_]

thank you for the suggestion we will add it to our list.

[@joshuawood7954]

thank god.

[@KaiHouston-m6j]

I have a hard time "getting" it. I suppose a play through is the only way. :)

[@roberthultgren9389]

Fate core more please please please

[@NikolajLicht]

Really good explanation! You guys are good at this. Would be nice with more :-)

[@rileyhunt682]

More FATE please !!!!!

[@calunsagrenejr]

At the last FATE game I ran, I compelled the player to allow harm to happen to someone they love. Their Trouble was meant to protect someone else, and I put them in a situation where protecting both that someone they love and the someone they had to protect was impossible. They had to choose. They spent a Fate point to reject the compel. I think that's a really good example when a compel can be rejected: accept the compel and we discover your character is someone who can watch as their loved ones are harmed, but reject it and your character undergoes a dramatic character change where they choose to reject their duty.

[@WizardCat-ux8he]

I like your video, the only thing I'd like to hear is to whom Fate is fun and to whom is not. For example, I like understanding the limitations of my character. Let say that my character has a +4 on strength, how much weight can he lift? So, for me, Fate seems too ambiguous. A system that I really like because I can understand the limits of my character is mutants and masterminds. Part of the fun for me is to solve the puzzle to achieve the character that I want to play under the limitations of the system. Fate core seems to be a game that it is not for me. I'd love to hear of your opinion on this. What are the pros and cons of the system? What you can do and what you can't. Etc.

[@0callaghan]

Parcore

[@mostlyjoe]

I think FATE good for some kinds of games. But since it us narrative driven it turns away players that enjoy a mechanical playstyle with emergent role play. Not the reverse.

[@joemaison1993]

Your sound effects are too loud in headphones. Listening to you at almost full volume to hear you. Then suddenly POP! good video though.
