If a DM based his plot on someone lying to you he'll never be like "You notice that he's not entirely sincere with you" because it only comes up during inconsequential roleplay and/or between characters. Not to mention Passive Insight and Passive Investigation. If i wanted to play a less perceptive character in favor, let's say, intelligence or social skills i would have done so, but this time i'm playing a scout and you keep invalidating my skills! One go-to argument i hear from DM's is "But then you wouldn't ever fall into traps or get properly ambushed" and i'm like "EXACTLY!". I mean, i'm all for decreasing my Passive Perception due to conditions such as low light or fog, but it's almost always the situation where no such things apply! Is it just me or RaW specifically says "You only have to roll for a thing if your character wouldn't notice the thing passively"? I'm always hearing things like "Well, you'd have to actively search for these guys because they're hiding!" or "Well, i made you roll and you rolled a 2, so blame the dice, not me" I've been playing D&D 5e for 2 years now and it's been a constant debate as to why my characters with high Perception don't detect foes and traps passively.
