MODERATORS
As a kid I enjoyed the cheats. As an adult? I way way prefer the challenge.
Same, but I also already have a job, and I don't want a game to just be more work.
In the end, it's personal preference, and so both play styles should ideally be supported.
I love a challenge, it's how I relax. If something isn't challenging for me I quickly get bored and stop playing. I basically need my brain to be stimulated and thinking and trying to properly relax. Which is why I often trend towards "hardcore" or difficult/brutal games.
There's a difference between a challenge and a slog.
Again, personal preference. What I consider a fun challenge you would 100% consider a slog.
Not really. There's a quote a big line between a good old fun and being a fuckin masochist
