Well the people who'd use it are the people who aren't having fun so it will enhance their fun. A feeling of achievement is probably secondary to most people, they just wanna have fun. Why frustrate people out of spite?

You used the word "people" four times, and "fun" thrice.

OT: I think it's ridiculous. If you're really stuck, go to the computer and look up a walkthrough. That way, you get some exercise, and it discourages the lazy ones amongst us- we will try to solve the problem ourselves for longer if instead of pressing a button, you have to get up, go to the computer, do a google search, click and scroll down, then try it, then realise you've done completely the wrong thing. Those stuck enough will just do that.

This is how I feel for the most part. Just because of human nature. I'm a little concerned that it will damage the market for more challanging games. I can enjoy a game that lasts a long time and I want all genres to survive in all forms. Why aren't there any games like grim fandango (well I thought it was pretty hard at some paces) on consoles? (In danger of derailing my own thread, I know)
