this comment traveled in time from 2001 lol

if a player brought it up as an issue, i’d probably go back on it. i’m an easy DM. i like Rule of Cool, but it’s about everyone having a good time ultimately, whatever that means to them

even though those are rules as written, i like to honor the crits, with a bit of nuance. if you’re super stealthy and roll a 1, maybe it makes a small noise but doesn’t cause an alarm. if you’re dumping strength on your wet noodle wizard, maybe you’re able to move that heavy thing an inch on a 20. it’s always situational though. people get excited to see a crit, and i think it makes it more fun.

i used fish as a login shell for years before i switched to nushell. it’s not super risky. bash is just as capable of having a system breaking config. worst case login as root with a minimal bash config and fix it up from there. if that’s fucked you need a rescue ISO.
