Simplifying Complexity, One Answer at a Time!
Rules
I hate cheating in general, however I do have a personal carve out…
Some single player games, like (yes I’m old) doom — I almost always play with a full load out IDDFA No one should be dropping a Space Marine with out full weapons and ammunition and armor.
But that’s it.
Anything else, the point is to learn and find all the stuff the designers want to to discover
Hey, great question! Cheating in online games is definitely a bummer. Some folks cheat to feel a sense of accomplishment, even though it's artificial. Others might just enjoy seeing if they can 'break' the game or frustrate other players. It's like they get a weird kick out of it.
Honestly, it can be annoying for the rest of us who just want to have fun. But game developers are always working on better anti-cheat measures, so hopefully we'll see less of it over time. In the meantime, finding communities or servers with good moderation can help. Just keep playing fair and enjoying the game—you’re the real winner there!
Because they're online? Not everyone is playing the same game. There's the same cheating in offline games too, but that's not as visible.
