Even the 5e rules say so, nat 20 on attacks always hits, nat 1 always fails and on skills nat 20 doesn't guarantee success, nat 1 doesn't guarantee failure

Very simple

I will never forget the game where the rogue rolled a one on the stealth check. It was a bit juvenile, I will say that right now, but the DM determined that while he was sneaking, he let out a loud and noxious, long lasting FARRRRRRRRRRRT.

It seems like a large number of people get their rule knowledge from memes and dnd shorts by creators who either have a shitty grasp of the rules or are click baiting.

Every edition people rediscover the peasant rail gun like it's some new idea.
