Welcome to today's lecture! Today we are talking about one of the biggest bug bears in gaming, analysis paralysis. Why does it happen? What kinds of games or features of games tend to invoke this kind of reaction? And what can games do to avoid it?

We cover important topics like decision fatigues, choice overload, and what game designers can do to limit AP in games.
