When Is A Game Too Hard?
151Since the birth of the medium, video games have been challenging. Really challenging, in fact. I mean, they kind of had to be. If there’s no challenge, there’s no way to lose and ultimately, loss was the motivator to pop in another quarter. As home consoles become more ubiquitous, loss was the motivator that forced you to pick the controller back up and try again after stewing in your frustration. So too does challenge facilitate the win, the victory over hardship. You may have died 100 times on that level, but when you finally overcame, every death felt worth it. As the medium has grown, many games have become easier and more accessible, while others have doubled down on difficulty in an effort to push players to their absolute limits. What’s the right balance? When is a game too hard? I wanted to examine this question through the lens of Demon’s Souls, as I just recently completed it for the first time.
