Fuck this game, it has damaged my psyche

The amount of times that I had like a 70% chance of drawing what I needed in the last discard alone and didn't, or the amount of times that I had a beautiful synergized build and a boss that disables it appeared by "coincidence", argh.

Yet I can't stop playing it

70% chance... and didn't

I'm guessing about 30% of the time. That's almost 1 in 3 times, which is a lot.

It's like the complaints about missing a 99% chance shot in XCom, it only happens 1% of the time, but those 1% times can be very memorable.

I know that's probably true but it sure as hell doesn't feel like it aaaarrrgh

It especially sucks when you make a 60% roll and then miss a 90% roll right after.
