Fair enough. I think a lot of it boils down to opinions of game design. The “Sometimes you’re just screwed” philosophy is definitely true to life, but I don’t particularly like it in my video games. If I want to gamble, I’ll play the slots or back an early access title from a less capable developer. If I’m feeling really adventurous, I’ll eat a sandwich from a truck stop vending machine. I’m all for games heavily punishing the player for making bad mistakes or not understanding the mechanics. I’ve got more of an issue with a many hours investment in a title turning sour because of fickle RNG gods. To your point, no. It was a one time only occurrence.
