Love having all my party members twiddling their thumbs defending and healing while one guy fails his steal rolls 10 times in a row
I extra love it if the steal move deals damage so you have to also worry about the target dying from too many failed attempts
I double extra love it when it’s a boss battle when on top of everything else the story momentum just grinds to a halt while you fuck with a stupid RNG for 5 minutes
My favorite is the games where if you don’t use the stealing mechanic in just that one boss fight at just the right time you lose out on a substantial game element, like some major boon. I always miss that stuff unless I read a guide.
