Can we do something about repeating choices after a roll ?
I don't know if it's a recurring problem in most rogue likes and rogue lites, but the amount of times I rolled for a new choice of boons ... only to be shown AT LEAST 2 exact same boons I just skipped on (sometimes TWICE IN A ROW, making me spend 3 dices, if not 6 for nothing) is pretty staggering,
I know there's supposed to be a randomizer going on, well, it's doing a really poor job.
I remember having faced similar situations in Hades 1, but not quite to the extent of this game. Which is kinda ironic, given how many more boons and choices are featured in this game.

Is it possible to add a line in the code of the rolls windows that makes it so the game absolutely locks out the choices from the previous window to come back again ?
Or, if you're dead centered on making people wasting their rolls, then get rid of the mechanic of having to spend one more than the previous one, each time you re-roll.

That'd be very helpful, thanks.

I doubt the game is specifically making these rolls less random than normal, but I do agree that spending re-rolls to get the same boons offered again is not fun. While I understand that RNG is part of the game and genre, if there is a limited re-roll mechanic in the game, it would be great if it could make at least some effort to avoid re-offering the same ones (when possible).

I understand there are some technical complexities here when not all boons have equal probability, and there is the additional element of rarity involved, but even a naive implementation of hidden internal re-rolling a couple of times to make duplicates less like would be an improvement.

(I'd also like to reiterate my earlier suggestion that it would be great if the list of available boons in game could be filtered/sorted to show only the ones that can be offered. It would also help the decision whether to spend a re-roll if one could quickly see what the possible boons that you could be offered right now are.)
