I just can’t accept that when 2 is objectively not the best effort the character could have made. I understand that in this model, the roll is to determine if your best effort is enough to succeed given the circumstances, rather than determining the quality of your effort in the moment, but I find that deeply unsatisfying. This is probably one of those things like abstract HP that some people just get hung up on, only I’m the one with the hangup in this case. But it is what it is, I can’t just ignore the fact that there were 18 other numbers I could have rolled that would have resulted in my character’s best effort having been better. Feels too “quantum ogre” for me.We did, more or less.</blockquote>
