@ CMF
Pseudo-random chance is reflective of reality. Video games and D&D are simulations of reality(I have already sourced this proof from the introduction of the PHB mind you before but I am happy to do it again) and therefor that which is a better reflection of how mechanical issues work in reality is superior and better for the efficacy of the simulation.

I don't have much to say about your second point as I haven't read anything but evidence is kind.


I am here to discuss a video game. Please do not try to rope me into anything other than that. Thank you.
