Depends on one's perspective I guess. I love the Zocchi/Gamescience dice which are really fun to roll and land with verve and exacting precision. Casino dice are <i>designed</i> to be even more fun to handle and roll and I'm easily taken in by this blatant manipulation! :)Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07997164906328234122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-51679243588297149162009-12-21T09:22:12.849-05:002009-12-21T09:22:12.849-05:00I bought a set of casino dice from Lou the dicemas...I bought a set of casino dice from Lou the dicemaster ,4d6 and they are mystical. They roll, clink, tumble, and work magic. No crappy dull edges that roll awkwardly, pure 100% random goodness to 1/1000 of an inch perfection. <br /><br />If you haven't watched that video explaining how casino dice are certified to be held to a certain degree go find it and you'll understand those crappy dice you use for rolling aren't as random as you think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-67617464503355141102009-12-20T14:07:48.536-05:002009-12-20T14:07:48.536-05:00Unless everyone is using dice of this quality at t...<i>Unless everyone is using dice of this quality at the table, then their simply pointless to use.</i><br /><br>It's a largely esthetic thing, so there's not really any "point" beyond the fact that I <i>like</i> the look and feel of these things.
