>NPC just nervously responds “Y-you too!”

>>76944315
Have them be quiet and say "It seems they don't know how to respond"

>>76944368
I do, but you can only pull that one so many times

>>76944315
"You know what? You seem based."

>>76944474
What would be the low fantasy equivalent of calling someone based and redpilled?

>>76944512
Shitting yourself and then expecting everyone to think you're a clever duck.

>>76944512
"You seem to based on a solid moral foundation and absolutely red-blooded."

the funny answers

> critically succeeds
this is bait

>>76944315
This is why you write up a list of immediate wands, long-term motivations, and ticks/quirks for NPCs that you expect the PCs during your prep. Improvising NPCs is something even neurotypicals are bad at a lot of the time.

>skill check
lmao no

Its a way of saying "they achieve the highest number possible in whatever system you're playing". It might not be a crit, but the players still expect to have done pretty well. Replace "critical success" with "degrees of success", you fucking autismos.

Spaghetti stream out of his pockets and everybody applauds.

>Critical success on a skill check leads to problems
Have you tried playing D&D by the actual rules?

>have you tried playing D&D
No, I don't play boring systems with no degrees of success. I just made it normie friendly.

>>76950188
>instantly assumes it's DnD
how often do you play, anon?

>>76950367
Three times a week. I shouldn't have jumped to the conclusion, though. That was my bad. I'm just so used to 99% of problems mentioned here being due to people either using D&D for something it's not intended for, or playing it incorrectly by ignoring rules and guidelines from the books.
