Topic	If you use rewind/save state to finish a game, did you beat it?
Lopen 12/31/19 4:29:44 PM #311:	Leonhart4 posted... I mean, yes? The person doesn't necessarily have to care about the attack for it to be an attack. When I say I don't think someone really beat a game it's not an attack per se. It's just an observation/statement of belief. It doesn't really matter to me except in the case of particularly difficult games. If someone beats Battletoads on the Switch I'm not gonna give them any props for it unless they explicitly say they didn't use savestates/rewinds. For a game like Battletoads that'd probably be my first question too. On the flip side, a game like Mega Man 4 or Super Mario Bros 3 I'm probably not opening with that question or asking it at all. You don't really get any gamer cred to me for beating that as it's not particularly difficult so how you did it is not really important. We can just both say yeah we beat it, good game. I might ask if you played all the worlds in SMB3 because warp whistles are easy to get and some of the worlds are memorable experiences that would suck to miss (the giant world for example), but we're not gonna throw down about that. Like I feel whether someone has beaten a game should not be considered an unwarranted attack in general. If you're not the type who has some sort of pride about gaming cred or whatever it shouldn't matter at all to you. If you are then you should take some pride in what you're doing and beat the games 'legitimately' and deserve to be attacked if you're cheaping through games for 'cred' --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! <cite>Lopen posted [p:932292637] in If you use... [t:78290078]...</cite> <quote>Leonhart4 posted... </cite> <quote>I mean, yes?
