I have a question about the episode Daniel Gross | The Knowledge Project #56 and the clip Learning Balance. Is it correct that "the razor's edge of difficulty" ensures players are challenged but still making progress, which is a critical balance for maintaining motivation without promoting unhealthy obsessive behavior, in episode 27: How Video Games Can Make Us SuperBetter and the clip Games and Meaning? Are the God of War games examples of this, using rewards to maintain balance?
