Your daily reminder that"Nat 20" doesn't apply to skill or ability checks. It's applies to combat only.

If a Nat 20 (the highest you can ever roll on a 20-sided die!) doesn't succeed, what was the point of rolling in the first place?

I house rule it to anything where dumb luck might help anyway. deciphering a language you know nothing about? nah. lockpicking a simple lock despite not really having much of a skill? woah, you don't know wtf you did but things clicked. you could probably force it open with a high enough strength check too but hey.
