I can suspend my disbelief quite a ways - much more so than most people can, I think. Yet this idea of 1/day powers just isn't something I can rationalize very far. I can accept that some abilities and powers and such are not things you can spam all day long, but at the same time I can't see them being so restricted in this particular manner. Spells and prayers I can rationize under the system to a greater degree - spells and magical powers are often limited in weird ways just by the very nature of magic. Things like 'I hit him really, really hard' are not. I would be much more accepting if, say, one had an allotment of more action points and had to spend an action point to use a '1/day'-level power. Yeah, you could then come back and say 'Well, why can I do Crushing Buttstrike' only four times a day (read: however many action points one would get under such a system and how often one would get more)?' The fact that you're doing a much more visible "expenditure of a finite amount of fortitude/willpower/opportunity I've created" would make it more palatable to me.</blockquote>
