On Friday, Call of Duty's official update account, @CODUpdates, announced the team's most recent account ban wave, aimed at players using hacks, cheats, and exploits that undermine...
Call of Duty bans more than 14,000 cheaters in 24 hours::undefined
I did that a couple of times, but it was more like “I don’t want to grind all of this stuff, I want to skip to the fun part”. Also, it’s morally different because it impacts nobody else.
As someone who is ashamed to admit that I used to hack in StarCraft: Brood War when I was 12, this is the answer. It’s fun.
Also I was absolute garbage at the game no matter how much I played, so I was trying to level the playing field a bit. Still got my ass handed to me over and over. Hacks can’t replace skill.
I hacked Zelda to because I’m not great at games but enjoy the story and I can progress the game at a reasonable pace without being overly frustrated. Also it doesn’t affect anyone else so it makes it ok.
Single-player games are a whole different thing.
People should be able to play single-player in whatever way they prefer as it doesn’t impact anybody but themselves.
Some games even come with “story-mode” difficulties and such for people just looking to enjoy the story and not looking for a challenge and that’s fine. Games used to come with cheat codes for the same purpose (well, for testing purposes initially but eventually for “play it whatever way you want”).
Indeed it is, no one has to listen to the salty chuds at Nintendo, just make sure you’re blocking Nintendo domains on Atmosphere’s hosts file.
Else they’ll put you in gay baby jail.
I made like 20 of my own amibos and used them with fast forwarding time on my switch to enjoy botw. I’m just shit at games and it made for a more fun experience.
No matter how I think about it, I just can’t understand why anyone would waste time doing this
It’s just the feeling of superiority without actually having to be superior.
Oh hey, that’s why so many of them are also white supremacists and mysogynists
Have you ever used cheats on single player games when that was still a thing developers put in games? I did, it was fun. That’s why.

They absolutely can.

Is it still allowed when it’s a Nintendo game though?

I have put into the jail too. I can’t access any of my switch games that I purchased in the past :(

The banning or the cheating?
I’m pretty sure he means the cheating,
Some people just want to spread their pain onto others.
