With a scuffed intro and iconic off beat metaphors and analogies, The Midnight Lantern returns with an episode discussing the design of difficulty in video games and why we play them. We respond to the youtube video: "Why You Keep Playing Brutally Tough Games" by Daryl Talks Games (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8cavOfbwHw) and break down our own personal perspective and experience when approaching difficult games and how designing challenges for players could be a great tool for art to be experienced.
