    If you every played XCOM, you would know that 85% chance to hit is rather low.

    Or about the chance of not rolling a 1 on a d6. And I have rolled too many ones in DnD and that was on d20s.

      Video games are a great teacher in why to fear probability.

      A 1/20 chance to miss? Well fuck, I better make figure out what I’m going to do when (not if) I miss.

      A rare weapon that’s 1/100? Time to prepare for ~300 runs/kills to get it.
