you can’t cheat on a blow up doll. solo play is not cheating.

mrgoosmoos, wczoraj do games w Do you cheat in video games?

no, I mod them

there is no such thing as cheating in a personal game

don’t tell the people on Don’t Starve forums, but save mods are totally okay and not at all “cheating and ruining the game”. you know what ruins the game? losing my several hundred days of progress because I didn’t actually pause the game when my dog started making puking sounds and I ran away from my computer

also, Minecraft automation - sure, I could let my server run overnight, or I could just directly give myself the materials the farm would have produced in 12 hours and save the power consumption. ofc I validate all my farms before I do any of that, and I don’t give more resources than they produce.

Yep, I bounced off Don’t Starve so many times after losing everything on a good run. It’s too involved, too long, and there’s too much endgame content to be happy to start again after making a tiny mistake dozens/hundreds of hours in. It’s not like Hades or Balatro where a top tier run lasts like half an hour. If life was as ruthless as Don’t Starve, there would be no time to play Don’t Starve, because we would all be dead.

having those discussions about DS on the internet a decade ago is when I realized how many people on the internet were literally just children

Masochistic children

Also, don’t attempt to use the term ‘mod’ as it is used literally everywhere else, with people who play GTAV/RDR2 online.

In their weird, niche vernacular, ‘mod’ = ‘hack/cheat engine’.

You’re talking out of your ass, you can’t say “Konami confirms” about something you think is true because they said something else.

danielhanrahantng, 20 godzin temu

I said I think because I do not know how much assembly the game uses all I know is it is a big amount because with linux part of it is written in assembly so it can use the nonstandard parts of the cpu and the cpu features of the ps3 were not standard at the time.

Whenever Skyrim would randomly crash and send me back to the dungeon as soon as I get to the boss, I use console commands. Other than that, flying, lightsabers, killer mushrooms, turning zombies in l4d to fall guy bean people, those are all fare game.

Let’s wait for the Ai driven rewrite of those parts into C, and then covert that code to whatever they target.

redsand, wczoraj

From PPC assembly? WTF data would you even train that AI on

danielhanrahantng, 20 godzin temu

Agreed but what about the parts that are not standard in cpus today

I meant remaster the game

These days games often allow you to individually change the difficulty which I make use quite often when I feel a game is becoming too much of a hassle than a joy and I still want to know how the story continues or see what might be coming.

I don’t think I have used a classic cheat in a long time. The last time I actively remember was The Sims 3 (I guess) and it kind of killed the game for me because suddenly everything was possible without any challenge and even a normal playthrough felt like I was missing something.

totally had the same experience! for me it was jazz jackrabbit 2. I totally still remember some of the cheat codes.

jjgod is the only one I remember, jjcoin and jjfly might have been ones too? Man I played the -heck- out of that game as a kid…

ordnance_qf_17_pounder, wczoraj do games w Do you cheat in video games?

I had to cheat to get any fun at all out of Far Cry 6. Piece of shit game.

CaptainBasculin, wczoraj do games w Do you cheat in video games?

Mostly singleplayer, when I feel like I’ve completed the most that the game would offer. Sometimes save cheesing/rng manipulation if I can’t get a certain thing to go my way, but not a lot.

On multiplayer, I did used to play anarchy minecraft servers (where cheats level the playing ground for everyone), but nothing that breaks that balance. Multiplayer is only fun when everyone has similar tools to you.

Last time I remember cheating in a game was giving myself infinite lives in Sonic Mania. The game is really fun, but I’m terrible at it and I hated having to restart from the beginning of act 1 when I was struggling with the boss. Got really bad with the final boss.

Not exactly an Android exclusive thing, but I like to play GameBoy ROMs vertical so it feels more like a gameboy color.

I just finished Monument Valley 2 and adored it. Short little puzzle game where you kind of mix the background and foreground together to progress. There’s 3 of them.

Zahille7, wczoraj do games w Do you cheat in video games?

In survival crafting games I’ll almost always make it easier on myself through the world settings or something. Getting rid of item and food decay, boosting XP gain, making sure I get 100+ of each resource anytime I go mining or whatever.

Enshrouded is a massive pain in the ass on normal settings, so I make it easier to explore, gather, and fight enemies. Otherwise it’d take me at least twice as long to get to where I’m at in the game, and that already took me over 100 hours.

Palworld I do all those things and increase pal spawn rate so there’s always at least 5 pals in a group at any given time. It makes capturing them so much easier.

Idk the last time I actually “cheated” in a video game though. Maybe one of the Lego games?

cRazi_man, wczoraj do games w Do you cheat in video games?

Depends on the definition of cheating. Here are a couple of ways in which I “cheat”:

I didn’t have the skill to progress beyond 4BC in Dead Cells, so I downloaded someone else’s save file with all items unlocked.

If I hit a wall in Silksong to the point that it starts to put me off the game, then I look up a walkthrough to see where the nearest undiscovered bench is or where to fine the thing I’m looking for.

For any game if I end too frustrated by a boss, I’ll watch a YouTube video to learn the attack patterns and avoid repeatedly dying to learn them. This is especially true for roguelites where I may have to cross 3 levels to get to a possible chance at a boss, and then get killed.

In FTL I used to copy out the save files to allow me to save scum if I died. The game is a roguelite and doesn’t allow loading saves in case of mistakes of death…so this is a workaround to save scum.
