I was curious how people felt about automatic fail / succeed in dialoge. I compltely get and agree with auto success or fails in combat on a Nat 1 or 20. But for dialoge I personally do not like it. Just as an example, if my character is the Gordon Ramsey of Faerun and I make some toast and I roll a Nat 1... I'm sorry, the best chef in Faerun is NOT going to fail to make freaking toast. That is just stupid. I understand you can hypothetically create a situation where, say... "You fall asleep and you burn down the building!" It just doesn't feel that natural 1's or 20's should auto fail / succeed in certain situations.

I wanted to know other people's opinions on this. As well as if you think there should be an option to turn this feature on or off in game settings.

You might be interested in this thread on the topic. There have been others too, I believe, that’s just the one I’ve seen active most recently.
