With a group of online & offline companies under the Soofi Group in my kitty, writing for the design genre was an interesting support to DesigningTips.com. In my opinion, everyone have their taste for design, plus the scope of writing is wide and thus the contribution I make here through words would encourage me to explore this section aptly.

  Good advice. Whenever I’m wkoirng on a new system, I try to think about how different player archetypes (of which I am personally only one) will experience the system. I channel friends and coworkers I know, and think about what they would get out of a particular system. There is no objective designer perspective, just a long list of various subjective perspectives. It’s a designers job to please the right subset of those perspectives.Judging which are right is the catch though, heh. That and keeping your personal opinion separate from that judgment call. Different games cater to different audiences
