Onyxmeth I ... ummm. OK, you got me too.

I think it's a good idea. I used to hate getting stuck in an area when I was a little kid, but back then I had the patience to keep at it. When I finally got past it, it was a feeling of relief, not achievement. Getting stuck isn't fun imo. It's something that stops fun. I'm not saying that puzzles aren't fun or difficulty can't be fun, but when you've been trying something for like 40 minutes or more and it just isn't working, it stops being fun.

Nowadays i'll just put the game down for months at a time. I don't see how that benefits anyone.

I welcome this feature. I don't see how it's any different than buying a strategy guide, hoping on Gamefaqs or jumping on YouTube to see exactly what you need to do to get past this area.
