What is the point on Expensive toys when you can

IMO, Cheaters are to gaming as criminals are to society.

So you're saying that anyone who ever uses a cheat, even one that developers put in, should be permanently banned from gaming or something.

 

Well, that's how extreme your comparison seems.

You could simply not use weapon and money cheats so you have to work for good stuff.

What's the reward in cheating through a game?

 

I mean what's the point of playing, if you just use the cheats to get the cool stuff?

 

I play for the story, and for the challenge of beating the game. I only use cheats after completing the game to poke at fun, but it's always a short pleasure, because it gets boring very quickly.

You don't even know what 'toys' they are talking about. and besides a lot of people don't use cheats and like to earn things. It's much more boring to use cheats in my opinion.

This.

 

So you're just going to cheat the game till the end? Sad.

I don't think the fact that he's using cheats is bad. I use them all the time, even during the story.

 

It's kind of stupid to bitch about things being too easy when you use them though.

There are cheats and then there are cheats. There is nothing 'wrong' with using the fun, silly cheats such as the beach party or slow-mo cheats from SA at any time, but spamming the money and full health/armor cheats whilst playing through the story is pretty cheap. But each to their own I guess. Personally I wont be using any cheats at all on my first play-through.

Comparisons aren't verbatim, I wish people would realize that. Comparisons/analogies are typically done to compare one common aspect between 2 things. In my case, I was comparing the tainting such act does to one's experience.

 

Its really hard to look at life the same after you've robbed thousands of dollars from a bank... Doing normal work may seem pointless now, since you actually have to work now, and you're making much less money in doing so. The same idea with GTAV; once you cheat for money & weapons, do you really want to give that all up and start earning money the hard way by picking people up in a taxi, or earn weapons fairly by skillfully killing enemies wielding the desired weapon?

 

Now do you understand?

This. I cheated in GTA 4 after 100%ing it. It got too boring in GTA 4 afterwards.

I hope, this time GTA V won't make cheating so easy. Like there are some "hard to get" toys not available through cheats.
