        Yeah, a lot of games do it under the hood without anyone even noticing.

          And some spell it out and make it a main feature, like Rimworld and its “storytellers”.

          They’re actually rather basic, but they check how well the player is doing and adapt the threat level accordingly.

          Well, if they’re not Randy, anyway.

            Having Randy available was a stroke of genius, imo. It takes care of difficulty and it’s an item randomizer.

              I don’t disagree. Not much of a Randy player myself, but I see the point.
