How can I be frightened or feel threatened by an enemy that cannot kill me? And as I've explained, you can't expect people to just "not use it" because most people will adhere to the path of least resistance even if it isn't fun. It hurts the skill ceiling of the combat, it hurts the intensity of encounters, and it hurts the atmosphere of a world that's supposed to be relentless, frightening, and oppressive. Having consumable items that make you essentially invincible in your zombie survival game is bad game design. Most people will choose the most efficient option even if its boring or detrimental to the intended experience you as a developer have crafted, so you have to have proper balance and make the fun stuff the most efficient way to play.
Y'see, when you design a game you have to consider the psychology of your players to understand the purpose and end playability of your systems. Even though your combo system is technically more engaging, it isn't as EFFICIENT as just spamming. You crunch the numbers and realize that your cool Tekken combos you programmed do less damage than just spamming that same attack over and over. You ask them "why are you spamming that same attack? Aren't the combos more interesting?" and they reply "the combo system is cool, but this attack does a lot more damage than the other flashier stuff". Everything goes well for awhile until you notice your players aren't engaging with a lot of the mechanics and are instead just spamming one move over and over again.
Let's say you just created a stellar action game with lots of intricate mechanics for the player to express themselves with, and you're doing your first round of playtesting. I've seen many talks and interviews where game designers will reference challenges they've faced while designing and playtesting their game and a common one that's brought up often is related to the concept of "the path of least resistance".īest way to explain this is by using a hypothetical. I know this reply is a month old but this whole "just don't use the OP thing" mentality isn't actually tenable from a game design standpoint.
