I’ve used ‘cheat codes’ and mods on single player or teamwork vs environment games for decades after playing a game long enough to want a different experience. Depends on what kind of fun I’m looking for.
I kinda stopped cheating in games when cheats stopped being button combos or console commands. I never cared enough about using them that I am gonna go out of my way to modify the game or use a 3rd party tool to be able to cheat.
If the game has them built in, I might partake. Tho even back in the day, the one I used most just made everyone have a larger head (idk why this was even such a common “cheat”).
Only in single player games and typically only when it’s too challenging like that mission/quest that is just really frustrating.
Or if I’ve already beaten the game and lost progress and just want to quickly get back to where I was.
Other than that, not really much. Maybe once in a while just to fuck around, but that’s about it for me. I don’t think it should be that big of a deal for single player offline games and you’re not trying to hit a leaderboard. It’s annoying seeing those on some games’ leaderboards and it’s obvious they’re there just because they cheated.
I am fascinated by all the morally questionable experiments and I always wondered if it was really necessary. So I am very curious about your project. And if it ends up causing sleepless nights, I still can go the lobotomy route.
