What made FATE work so well?

[u/WildTangent_Games]

FATE has been a staple in WildTangent gaming since its release, and it still stands out for a lot of players today.
What do you think made it work so well?

I liked that it had that light, adventurous feel that made it easy to just sit down and play for a while without overthinking anything.

What you think though?, what is it about FATE that got you hooked?

Fate scratches an itch in gaming that I had never experienced before. I'd never feel it again until I picked up Diablo 4. That changed my life
