>every game should enforce permadeath, or limited continues

OP is a bideo bamer

You know what we do with bideo bamers right?

>every game should enforce a one life rule. If you fail you lose the license to the game and can never play it under the same account ever again

Literally refute this

Wasn't there an MMO that tried that shit and failed miserably?

It may go against the theme of the game or what the creator intends. Like with SMT: Final, the MC can only die at one point in the game, after that Dadga will literally pull your ass back.

Besides, all you're adding into the game is a minor, if irritating inconvenience to an otherwise enjoyable experience. Game are meant to be entertaining and fun, failure to be fun and entertaining makes a game objectively bad.
Git gud, no matter how many times you spout the meme, is just a meme and if the game isn't fun it's a bad game.
Or at the very least it means that the genre isn't your thing and you may want to give something else a try.

Again, why bother playing videogames if being challenged is an "irritating inconvenience" to you. Watch movies, nigga.

>Every game should enforce The Matrix rules, if you die in-game you die in real life
Don't even try to contradict this because you fucking can't

Running through the earlier and usually easier parts of the game again and again is not a challenge. Permadeath is fun in a game which is designed with little downtime and few parts which are simply boring timesinks - it's awful when you have to go through parts which present no challenge and exist simply to fill time again and again after each death.

Stop playing Dorf Fort, or any sandbox garbage for that matter.

don't tell me what to do

developing your skills through a visually stimulating and interactive medium

I don't die often enough in video games to want limited lives. One is usually enough for me.

Every game should try as hard as possible to recreate god's creation. That's the only way we'll break free from our cycle.

Basing the core gameplay off trial and error in the most base form is actually incredibly tedious. Especially when offering the player few ways to deal with enemies outside of trial and error.
Difficulty should be in enemy placement, variety, level design and competent enemy A.I. that increases effectiveness at higher difficulties.

Go on Steam's achievements page for any game and try to find one that has more than 20% of people beating it. Normies don't care about finishing games, most can't anyway, eevn with unlimited attempts

This only works with indie roguelites, since they're the only games with so little content it makes sense to prevent you from seeing all of it for as long as possible

My personal favorite. The 21% achievement at the top is for finishing the tutorial.
