replies: text: No. Here, "ablative" is not used in its grammatical sense, but in the medical sense of the removal, especially of organs, from the body by mechanical means. See http://www.dictionary.com/browse/ablation. D A Patriarche, BSc 12:30, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

message: There should probably be a mention of similar random modifiers for non-combat situations.  I believe Star Wars Galaxies has critical failures in crafting, for example.  --Mrwojo 20:45, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

message: The article says that critical hits originated in D&D, but there are no critical hits in 1st edition AD&D. The concept of critical hits does make an appearance in 2nd Edition AD&D, as an optional rule, but I'm sure that by that time (1989) they had appeared in many other RPGs.

replies: text: Andy Slack implies that while the concept originated in D&D, the term critical hits was new in the additional house rules originating in the Empire of the Petal Throne. D A Patriarche, BSc 12:28, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

message: They are actually called Critical Hits in Chrono Trigger, not "Double Hits". This is most clearly visible in the DS version of the game. --71.231.52.36 (talk) 13:05, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
