    I play with these noobs, and explaining that a nat 20 is not an automatic success on whatever the player wants comes up every other session. It’s a problem because it both makes the game more annoying for me to play, and less enjoyable for the person who thought their plan was going to succeed. I’m not concern trolling, I’m offering personal experience to the discussion

        Session 3

        “I wanna buy a bag of holding from this guy”

        It’s gonna be 200 gp

        “We only have 50 gp between us… I’m gonna roll persuasion!”

        The DM ended up letting her get away with Prestidigitating some fake platinum pieces, which by all rights ought to get us arrested

        You are really trying to pretend that you know literally anything about me

        Bottom line is, these memes misrepresent what D&D (and TTRPGs in general) is like, and that’s why I don’t like them. I have a similar problem with the super popular actual play shows. The Mercer Effect is real
