    This just tells me that there is a market there waiting for Larian to make a game based on F.A.T.A.L.

      The math in that game is somehow more traumatizing than the content.

        Or the game design. It’s so focused on “realism” that 90 percent of players will be farmers who only gain exp for planting and harvesting crops and NPCs are forced to attack you bc of race relations. Or the disgusting way the stats/attributes work.

          Yeah people always joke about FATAL as “that pervy game” but that take is ignorant to all the rape and racism in the mechanics.

            Yeah. Its mechanics are amazingly intricately bad. It feels like someone spent a lot of effort on it and then never play tested. I super want to play it with some friends and lean in heavily to silly sex mechanics.
