the new DM runs a very brutal game and idk if i necessarily prefer it because my last character literally died because i got a 1 on a perception check that i made (NOT a save or anything)
like i kinda feel like making 1's interesting is one thing but killing off characters or derailing a thread because someone rolled a 1 is an entirely different thing.
players at this table are actually hesitant to roll checks like that now because they're scared if they get a 1 they'll be killed off

@catoutofbed well to be fair it was
*1 on perception*
you see a thing and you walk towards it. make a dex save
*i fail that*
you fall off a cliff. make a dex save
*i fail that*
you take [all my hitpoints] falling damage.
*i'm now unconcious*
make a death save
*critical fail, so i take 2 death fails*
okay, you now have one chance left, make a death save
*fail*
your character dies
