The rise of amortization in board game design a professional's perspective

As a professional game designer with over ten years experience, I have seen the industry evolve from small garage-based operations to large-scale studios. Throughout these changes, one aspect has remained consistent - the importance of game mechanics and gameplay. Game mechanics are the rules that define how the game is played and experienced by players. They are what make a game fun and engaging. In this article, we will explore how amortization can be used as a powerful tool for board game design.

First and foremost, let's get down to business - what exactly is amortization? Simply put, it is the process of spreading out payments over time in order to reduce their financial impact. This principle is well understood by individuals who take out loans or mortgages on property. However, this concept can also be applied to game design.

In our industry specifically, we use amortization in two ways First, we use it during the design phase where we determine how players gain power over time and what that means for balance; secondly but no less importantly after launch when new content is released - either paid or free - so more people are incentivized to play more often due to updated rules which increase replayability.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
