@KelsyPolnik So if a game has a great game-development "skeleton" but just takes a lot of practice and memorization, and since many don't want to put in that time they under-rate it, experts will still value it as under-rated. But if the difficulty is *poor game design*, the game gets dinged. — PolitiTweet.org

@KelsyPolnik What this means (as I also explained in RETRO's "The Definitive Top 100: Worst NES Games") is that experts try to avoid calling a game "bad" simply because it is hard, but they are also cautious about ignoring a game as "underrated" just because it's hard. https://t.co/qBuheYCfMV — PolitiTweet.org

@KelsyPolnik Examples: Adventures of Dino Riki is hard partly due to bad game design (the top-view jumping mechanics) and partly due to the need for practice and memorization; Cheetahmen II is hard because it's broken; Mega Man is hard only because it takes a lot of practice and memorization. — PolitiTweet.org
