Modal Difficulty in video games.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Feel free to open this podcast up on the side as you work or do something else. There is no visual content related to the topic so you won't miss anything by just listening.

It's going be a long ramble about concepts of game design, level design, templates for games' difficult, modal difficulty and organic difficulty.

X-Com 2 is a turn based, strategy game by Firaxis on the PC. Due to it's difficulty mechanics I decided to take this chance to revisit the discussion of Modal Difficulty in video games, both theoretically and in X-Com 2 itself. Taking a look at concepts of organic difficulty to reference what modal difficulty is and how X-Com 2's implementation of modal difficulty within each difficulty slider is very confusing to me.

Today's OST:
Dragon's Crown music - 13- Meet Tiki and Mermaid
Dragon's Crown music - 04- Town
Muramasa- The Demon Blade OST - Losing Consciousness B
