I’ve seen the term RNG used a lot in discussions about video games and I’m trying to understand what it stands for. It seems to relate to the level of unpredictability or chance in a game, but I’d like a clear explanation of its meaning and role within gaming.
Could someone also explain how RNG impacts gameplay? I’m curious about whether it’s something that can be controlled or predicted by the player, and how it might affect the overall gaming experience.
RNG stands for Random Number Generator, and it’s a system that determines the outcome of events in games based on chance. In my experience with games like RPGs, RNG can dictate everything from what loot drops from a defeated enemy to the chances of successfully hitting an attack. It’s typically beyond player control, which can add a level of excitement or frustration, depending on how luck goes. While you can’t predict RNG, some games do offer ways to slightly influence probability through in-game mechanics or items, creating an interesting balance between skill and luck. Have you noticed RNG making a big difference in any of the games you play?
