Done.

Good luck with that ;]

There are a few options I didn't fully understand what you meant:

Reward (needs to be clarified?)

Symmetry

Risk

Balance (in campaign?)

Interest

Fairness

The questionnaire could use a few lines of descriptions to help avoid questionmarks

This is how I thought of them, could be wrong... Might be interesting for the interviewee to look at as well cos if they´re wrong perhaps other people have judged them wrong as well

Reward: Pretty vague as in risk/reward, achievements, experience, gold, ...

Risk: How much chance of failure and how harsh said failure must be in order to gain certain rewards.

Balance: Difficulty of enemies compared to the player.

Interest: Didn´t quite understand this as well... How interesting things are? Interactivity, things to see/do? Keeping that carrot in front of the player?

Fairness: Enemies using rocketlaunchers while you have a knife. Walking up to a door and randomly getting squashed by an anvil. Did the events that caused certain stuff to happen make sense to the player, were they expected. Things that cause frustration, really

Was this what you guys thought of as well??

You also seemed to miss "flow", which is a nobrainer and always imported... Perhaps that´s why it´s not in the list

Variety of pace/contrast as well.

Not sure what to expect from this but best of luck! It´d be interesting to see what you came up with!

Super-vague

I thought of them a bit like you did. But I felt these three were a bit redundant as there's a "challenge"-category already.

Yep, flow/pacing is superimportant imho.

done. Some of the not important-very important ones where not very clear though.

Done

For single-player pacing should be somewhere, it's prob one of the most important things!

I did this survey too, it was okay.

Points mentioned earlier were bit vague.
