                           Than the other, this becomes less fun
             ?             Than playing alone.
                           -SO, you think concept of
                           “Secret Information” from board game.
                           -encourage or require players to keep

                  Lv: ★★★★★        It is boring..



Lv: ★★☆☆☆ game                -When someone is better than you in skill,
                               that is even less fun.
                              -SO, let players play together, but whoever wins
                              -balancing this between hardcore & casual players
                 Lv: ★★☆☆☆    --> The solution that rewarded both groups was

                               two tiers of rewards




                                                                              CHA

Lv: ★★★★☆ game


                             -They just want to be left alone because they
                 Lv: ★★★★★    find the idea of making mistakes in front of others
                             -so, we made sure there was a minimum rating
    Lv: ★★★★☆
                             so no matter what, u couldn’t be too discouraged.



                                                                                    CHA
Problem 4: No Protagonist



        game
                       -U’re not the protagonist anymore.
                       -a lot of developers don't consider
                       other forms of customization
                       ->allows players to differentiate themselves
                       And their behaviors from others.
               Real
               world
                                                                 CHA
Problem 5: Jerks

-They're not always nice to each other, even when you want them to be.

-Without the ability to trust someone else with everything, you won't truly cooperate.

-You can choose who to trust; if they choose to grief you, that was your mistake




                                                                                         CHA
