Too easy is boring
"Too hard" just means you need to get better at the game
I guess we have to define or give examples of too easy and too hard. I agree that too easy can make games boring, but too hard also has the drawback of losing most of the (casual) audience by discouraging them. You can make games easy enough, yet still entertaining and having replay value.
A game I would consider that elold hard for casuals, would be F-Zero GX. On GC NSO especially with the increased lag input and controller sensitivity. I would say what's particularly really hard is unlocking all the AX characters in story mode on very hard mode. I thought that was really dumb. Normal is challenging enough, and hard is nuts.
But yeah, both extremes suck.
