Considering the number of high DC checks you have to make, often in a row in the same conversation where any failure means every success was wasted, I feel like we get shafted with the max 4 inspiration thing. Remove the cap and things would feel less BS on the shill check front.

As a DM, I am very aware that you should never make something a skill check unless failing that skill check also provides a path forward. BG3 feels like it sometmes does that, but a lot of times failing a skill check leaves you surrounded, with the 250+ HP monster dealing 100 dmg per turn and 7 dmg immunities leading the pack already in melee range of your characters. Or the room explodes.

At this point, I'd like a dedicated option in the settings for "Automatically succeed all skill checks", because it feels like the game expects me to save scum a lot of this. To quote Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation: "You can't blame someone for breaking a window if the only door is in the roof."


Don't you just hate it when people with dumb opinions have nice avatars?
