Message: <blockquote data-quote="brakel" data-source="post: 43002" data-attributes="member: 416">One can make an argument that it makes sense to make the standard setting for TPA easier than the real pinball machines. Pinball machines have been designed for short play to eat as many quarters as possible. They have also been designed to let you reach some goals, like multiball, after just some practice while holding the ultimate goal of beating the table out of reach for all but the most dedicated and talented players. There are reasons for this. You want players to feel like they are making progress and having good games but you don't want many to finish. This way the player has incentive to play over and over.You take the need for the manufacturer and arcade owner to get our quarters and it frees up FS to deliver a product that takes skill and progressive learning but most players can beat the table. This does make it desirable to have a harder original arcade setting.</blockquote>
