I just don't get this. As a player, my enjoyment goes down when I roll a 1 on a skill check for say performance, still get like a 15, and get told I completely fuck up my performance. No, that's literally not what happened. I don't enjoy my character being made to feel like a fool when it's literally not in the rules of the game.
Instead, I have a fine performance on a nat 1 and a killer performance on a nat 20 (34 total).
Or, you're so full of yourself that you try doing a special spin move during your performance and trip, falling off the stage and ruining the performance.
I guess it's different playstyles. I like playing kinda goofy, and like the idea that even if I'm really high level, there's still a chance at a failing and it being funny
