The Wired article stated a false assertion regarding comments made about Clinton Wired seems to be making up a bit of fake news . They need to be called out on it . Exactly . Wired said The Pizzagate scandal falsely claimed Hillary Clinton kidnapped , molested , and trafficked children in the backrooms of a Washington , DC , pizza restaurant . That ' s a fucking lie . Looks like the Wired article is a set up to demonize the Pizzagate investigation while creating sympathy for the despicable actions of uspez , the amins and Power Mods . Shame <| sep |> I understand the sentiment but it really depends on the implementation whether this is a bad thing . Of course it ' s shitty if you ' re going to be rolling 1 or 2 dice to determine successfailure la Risk . However , there are some very deep strategy and even combat simulators or wargames that use dice . These are far from random luckfests . The thing is , you need something to replace the role of player dexterity the physical skill , not the stat in combat . There is no turnbased , cardboard equivalent of reaction time , precision or handeye coordination . Dice rolls are simply a very replayable and tweakable tool for this . Just a little experiment off the top of my head to show what I mean not sure how the actual rules work . Say you roll dice and take the average to determine damage done . The more dice you have , the more predictable your output becomes . If there is some other skillbased element memorization , timing , whatever that allows you to earn more dice for that turn , you have a skillbased combat system where being better at the game reduces the odds of whiff rolls . Such a system wouldn ' t be out of place in a Souls game , in my opinion . You could play the easy way and press your luck use cheesy weapons , or play the hard way and ensure you do the damage you need .
