I wonder if anything has changed over the last 11 years for anyone?
I seem to go with more of a penalty for failure now. Miss the open lock check be 1-4, then maybe you make a loud noise that alerts the monsters and they gain surprise, but you can try again or just open it more likely. Miss finding a trap, it goes off if you step on it or open the chest or whatever. Some things like hiding are obvious, but most are now on a sliding scale.
