I have been summoned. Our game is a single player rpg inspired by Ragnarok Online and Diablo 2. If that sounds interesting to you, please feel free to follow our progress 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Sorry, I misspoke. I meant to say that companies are more risk averse. They don’t want to take risks. Right, the high amount of money means that risks costs too much. Which is where Indies are able to thrive, as I said.

True! Still, I get the sense that the industry has become overall less risk averse in the past few years. Which is good for indie develops that fill that gap. Do you agree with my perspective?

Do you get the sense that there is more apprehension in the modern game industry in giving players choice? I suppose when your primary goal is player retention, giving choice to players is a risk.

But the ability to choose where to go also gives the player agency to create the curve they want. This can be a double edged sword and takes careful game design to not let the player ruin their own experience. Thanks for the quality insight 😎

So in open world games, how much should one try to guide the player through a reasonable difficulty progression vs let the player try and fail and try again to discover it themselves?

Have you considered an inverted version of this graph? Where the difficulty spikes as you enter new areas but as you improve, the difficulty lessens until the next area. I would suppose that a lot of MMOs follow this approach.
