  • Honestly, I think the best way is just the old fasioned way of asking for your age. You don’t want to tie social media to real IDs, and you don’t want AI bullshit either. Yes, it is easily faked but that’s not the point. The point is that you can simply ban the accounts when you find them for lying about their age.

    Don’t make dying harder than it has to. I really hate the mechanic in Hollow Knight where you had to go back to the place you died and battle your shade. It’s extremely punishing and unfun (for me). Compare that with Ori where, when you die, there is no extra penalty and the reload is almost instant, so you immediately get to go again. It keeps me in the flow.

    For that same reason, bosses should only have a grand entrance, cut scene, etc once. When I die and go again I want to immediately fight him, I don’t want to have to sit through the same scene 30 times just because I suck. Not even if it’s just 5 seconds long. So, second time make sure the boss is spawned and waiting.
