Do you abuse exploits/cheats in your games to make it more enjoyable?

e.g 2/4x exp/money to shorten RPG games so you can play more of em or do you prefer being vanilla?

Yes. You are never going to catch me grinding the same fucking mission over and over again to get something. I always thought the grind made me cool but no. It was all retarded cope to justify wasting my time. I cheated in Payday 2 to get all the weapons & attachments that I want. No regrets. I could finally just enjoy leveling up and trying different builds every infamy level

Yes, why do I care about impressing people who care too much about an entertainment pastime? I'm not a zoomer or teenager.

>savescumming the horse races in San Andreas

did you seriously save this webm from that mentally ill Argentine? what could you possibly find interesting about this ugly bitch trying to look cute?

I think it gave you a timer after you reloaded to prevent you front abusing it. Rockstar is so jewish it prevents you from getting money in a single player game without microtransactions.

>>715026675 (OP)
yes. if it doesnt involve hex editing or invasive shit like cheat engine its fair game. like getting the enclave power armor early in Fallout 2 by save scumming all the way to San Francisco.

the early time you can exploit it in los santos, the nearest save i think is far enough away that the time limit doesn't matter, if it had one
never tried it in las venturas
i was so pissed they tied the health/armor code to also getting 250K, even though there's not much to buy

I play permadeath roguelikes and make backup copies of every save. I'm sorry, going down a flight of stairs only to get Confused and ganged up by 8 manticores is not "fun"

>>715026675 (OP)
Vanilla first, then make adjustments for future playthroughs.

My grandfather always used to say "Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat." After his death I learned that he stole that line from some boxer from the 50s. It was fitting; he lived by those words

I always max out gold, I like to feel like a god.

Worthless opinions.

>Turn on riot mode
>Can't turn it off
>Never finish game
And I never, ever, ever cheated again. Never ever.

No. I've accepted my fate of never getting married or starting a family, so I'll actually be playing vidya right into old age until the day I die. That means my goal is to do the opposite of finish a game quick so I can play more, I want to stretch games out as long as possible so I don't run out. I'm super picky about games so it's an actual fear of mine that I'll run out of good games to play because I certainly can't rely on good new games being made. I would prefer being able to play any game I like for as long as possible.

I play vanilla, but will use fast forward sometimes if the fights are really slow.

>>715026675 (OP)
I don't call it exploiting, but I will cheese a game sometimes, or find a way to abuse the AI. Most recently an enemy got stuck in a door frame. It was clear that this wasn't supposed to happen. I just sat in the hallway and fed it arrows until it died. It was an enemy that was way above my ability to handle otherwise.
In Dragon's Dogma you can jump on top of a rock when fighting wolves and their pathing doesn't allow them to reach you. Again, it's clear this behavior is not intentional but once you discover it, it becomes hard to not use this feature because of the amount of wolves the game throws at you. I have no problem cheesing AI to win fights, or to take shortcuts, but if I find something in the realm of infinite mana or items I won't use it because it ruins my fun.

beat the first part of dragons dogma and got to the second half, those stronger wolves were brutal and i quit playing

>>715033525
>those stronger wolves
You mean the hellhounds? Just stand on a rock they can't do shit. Same with chimeras. Pays to be a ranged character IG. The ones in the everfall I got past by abusing their pathing and just waiting for my pawns to pick them off.

Playing modernslop without cheats and mods to fix all the broken shit and gameplay padding grind, is like playing with your cock with sandpaper gloves on.

I used to rent games based on the cheat codes in the few magazines I had, so I could hopefully beat them before returning

only in wegs

That exploit has had a negative impact on my real world view.
Where step one was always was come into generational wealth by chance before doing anything else.
But I'll win it big this time lads, you'll see.

I exploit Pokemon games via RNG manipulation to obtain shinies. It's a game in and of itself, it's fun.

>>715034724
i would but once i catch the one i want there's no reason to keep playing. one day i'll get that shiny swablu though
