I have been DMing for 9 years and I often cringe at all the things I made my players roll for in the past.
Sometimes the narrative your players are weaving is just so good and their point is so well executed that making them roll will cause a disservice to the overall story.
Critical Role's Brennan Lee Mulligan ditched D&D's dice in Campaign 4: no roll needed because a PC monologue was "too good."
Performance now overrides actual gameplay.
This isn't D&D. It's scripted celebrity theater pretending to be gaming.
They. Don't Really. Play.
I just want to know one day this week without seeing Mixtape on my for you page... I have like negative interest in this game the people tearing it to shreds aren't even funny about it anymore. I am never going to play it but somehow it feels like I have played in 1000 times.
