I believe that HELP systems are not always necessary but they are there for insurance. Providing a HELP system, in my opinion, does not mean your design is not obvious or should become less obvious. I kind of look at it like learning, everyone learns differently and not every method/design is suitable for everyone. Just because a majority gets it, does not mean everyone will get it. I believe providing a HELP system is useful in some cases (depending on how complex the design is) but not always needed. HELP system's should only be provided if you notice a need for one while conducting prototypes and other early pre-creation processes. I, personally, enjoy HELP systems just because I know that if I stumble on a design, something is there to teach me how to use it.
When it comes to developing personas for Project #5 the category of people on whom to focus would have to be comic book readers and the comic book movie watchers. As we know, comic books are all about fantasy, so I believe we must take into account that the design may not be realistic. The design must include somewhat of a fantasy aspect to it because all watchers enjoy a somewhat "fantasy/imagination" aspect.
