Dicepool/Success or Roll+Bonus?

Examples: CofD with the pool of Atribute+Skill with any 7 or greater being a success and, lets say, you need three successes to do something great. While in D&D you roll d20, sum your bonuses and try to hit or pass the value of the challenge.

If you were going to try a new system, with rolling type would you prefer?
inb4 no rolls

No rolls.
Roll+bonus

Roll+bonus is fast, simple and objective. Dicepool is slower and too open for interpretation.

What's that from, OP?

Because this is an American board?

Like in a board that hardly interacts with America.

Depends on the setting.
No, really. Asking people to choose a dice system without any context is like asking whether they want a wrench or a hammer. The correct answer is: "Well, what am I supposed to do with it?"

I don't care whether it's a dicepool, roll with modifiers, drawing from a tarot deck or speaking Korean into a voice recognition app. What's important is what the system actually does with that mechanic.
