[quote=@Shoryu Magami] my attention to detail and nature as a deconstructionist/reconstructionist means I do not have much of a willing suspension of disbelief, a statement I've made a few times in this thread actually. I also consider out of character writing to be the greatest blasphemy a writer can commit, which is why I despise most fanfiction. [/quote] If the story is supposed to be more realistic (of course suspending disbelief for things like magic) and stays consistent and suddenly breaks suspension of disbelief due to a mistake, poor writing, etc. then I don't like it either. Even small things can still get to me that way. There's this one famous fanfiction of harry potter where they're all goths and Dumbledore curses Harry out or whatever. Pretty hilarious if you ask me. XD Do you hate 4th wall breaking characters like Deadpool? [quote=@Shoryu Magami] All I've been saying is that I've seen plenty of times when the dice rolls ended up constantly coming up badly and each of these so-called experts fighting each other ended up looking like complete amateurs. [/quote] I could come up with another rule for my dice roll and say that if they get a bad luck roll, they get bonuses to future rolls for a bit to make sure they can't keep missing shots that could go either way. Kind of pointless discussing that with you, as you wouldn't do it, but if someone else likes this dice rolling idea than feel free to use it.
