They picked by far the filthiest installment of WTF, D&D to promote on the official D&D twitter.

I once wrote a thing making fun of some crappy free MMO, and the company contacted me to ask if they could edit out everything implying that the game might not be very good and then use it as advertising copy.

0006 Projectile vomit, 1d20' distance, 3d15" splatter circumference, see appendix 913 for rules on consistency and speed, see inset for percentage of vomit retained in mouth due to mouth size. :gonk:


I'm worried I will never truly feel clean again, but if a woman suddenly cannot stand up straight due to an enlarged uterus I will know to immediately alert the authorities that there is a wizard within one mile of her. I suppose that is some small consolation.

Steve: I want to die

This was the best part. Tears happened. You guys continue to be fantastic. Please "don't review" FATAL more, if just so I can see Steve cry. Sorry Steve.

This is the first I'd heard of it too. After 15 years on the internet, I thought I was desensitized to everything I could ever possibly see. Just knowing that game exists is the most disturbed I've felt in a while.

Hilarious comments by Steve and Zack, as always.

The artwork in the book is mostly just what was posted in the update. Poorly filtered photos of the designer and his buddies.
The front cover is literally the kind of thing fundies would use to show the evil of roleplaying games. I believe it's a bunch of goblins surrounding a naked slavegirl, with a heroic, mostly-naked beefguy rushing to save her.

fake edit: I was close enough with my recollection. :nws: Here is the second edition cover. How do I know it's the second edition? Because FATAL originally stood for 'Fantasy Adventure To Adult Lechery'.

Like the not review article said it was the character generator so you didn't have to spend a quarter of a day making your character. 90% of the crap could be trimmed out of the game and it would still be the hugest steaming pile of crap rpg game.

There's nothing around that's objectively worse than FATAL, but there are things that are bad in different ways. RAHOWA, Empire of Satanis, Wraeththu, Hell for Leather.

oh God Wraeththu. RaHoWa isn't really a complete game and wouldn't be a good WTFDND, but Wraeththu definitely needs the Zack and Steve treatment. It's what happens when horribly awful fantasy books translate themselves into RPG form.

They did cut out some of the more overtly racist stuff after a preview version was reviewed online, but I'm wondering what else they might have removed to slim it down (though I'm not sure these are the kinds of guys who would normally ever dare damage their "masterpiece.")

Ahhh poor Frazetta.... at least he lived a pretty awesome and succesful life. I watched the documentary about him a while ago, and found it to be pretty excellent.

Hey are you guys going to do either the original Warhammer or Blood Bowl rulebooks as WTFs? I remember them both having some terrible art.
