Depends on the game. Sometimes it's fun for players to just go with the flow and let the GM and the rolls produce ridiculous results. I think it gets old fast though
i think truly ridiculous results are for crits
Which admitedly in some systems are way to common
"haha you rolled a 1 so you stab ur BUTT"
Crits don't work the way people use crits
Like almost everyone just uses a crit as an auto success
I grew up on Das Schwarze Auge. A skill check there consisted of 3 rolls on attributes and in total you could roll X amount above the attributes (or had to roll X amount in total below them) based on your skill + modifiers. D20. as soon as you have TWO ones or twenties at least you got to go into crit teritory.
I rolled a 20 so I should be able to jump over a house this DM sucks
I like the Shadowrun system of crits wherein as you get better crits become harder, which honestly makes sense
Imagine you had a 1/20 chance to do anything you tried successfully. There's good reason why skill checks can't crit
Your initial efforts are kinda all over the place, with both critical hits and failures being fairly probable. As you get better your success becomes consistent and the variance goes away
I like how pokemon tabletop adventures handled skill checks. You roll a d6 for each skill point you have in an attribute. So getting a skill point is a big deal
In my group, crits are only a minor damage bonus. Thatโs due to the fact that we utilize a mutilation system though.
That's also the SR system
You just end up stacking a lot of points though, to the point where you roll like 14d6 for a check
@Rabbi Shekels does the LGBT community promote fixed binaries? ๐ค
It seems so
World of Darkness is also dicepooled like that, but with a lower cap
Nut shure dough
I think in PTA it went up to 6 skill points
Thats just feminism
Feminists frankly are just the current enforcers of gender roles
We all know they support whichever way of thinking best suits them in according to situation.
You know what the best crit system is... exploding die ๐
SR is like 6 or 7 points (depending on traits) for a skill + anywhere between like 4 and 10 points from stats+etc
Exploding dice is fun
Why not both? OG Deadlands was Dice Pools, raised die types and exploding crits
So one guy is rolling 6d4 and another is rolling 4d8
And suddenly a stick of dynamite goes off near by and you're trying to soak multiple d20s in wounds
And then they took that big old mess and dragged it kicking and screaming into savage worlds so people would actually play it. The only casualty was drawing playing cards for chargen and I miss it anyway
๐ค So if far left people refuse to use places like gab because it's full of nazis, but now all the far left people are leaving twitter, with them gone doesn't that mean twitter is just full of nazis and that they shouldn't come back?
I dont use gab becouse a) i dont use mobile devices and b) why would i give a company the ability to censor me?
@Redneo thats a cuk thing to say
I don't use gab because it's supposed to be like twitter
Personally I just never share any thoughts through any medium so I can't be censored
Reported
I have accounts but i rarely share anymore
@Rabbi Shekels how so? I prefer to post without companies, governments, courts being able to take my posts down.
Lmao @Beemann
@Redneo i dont blame you
