I am generally a greater fan of Fate's method of handling fate points. You generate them by accepting or willingly activating "compels" based on your character's flaws: maybe you deliberately have your PC make a poor decision, or perhaps a stroke of external misfortune strikes.
I personally dislike the whole "roleplay good to get metacurrency" method.

• D&D 4e and Draw Steel present them as successes vs. failures in a skill challenge.
• Path/Starfinder 2e couches them as "Victory Points" either counting up or ticking down.
• Daggerheart uses a die (d4, d6, d8, d10, or d12) that either starts at its lowest value and counts up, or starts at its highest value and counts down.
