You entirely missed the point. It’s the speed at which the meta game develops that’s ruined by cheaters (among other things, not to mention how unethical it is), their meta game moves faster than that of non cheaters, thus when they compete among us they very much do have a quantifiable advantage.

Those are technically illegal, as they rip assets and IP from the games, not to mention harm the game’s sales; I know people who just play that, and don’t bother with actually buying/playing the games. I don’t condone any of that, I feel it’s wrong. For people with a looser conscience though, fine, but then don’t go…

For me time is a problem too, because by the time online competitions start, cheaters have had more time to try things out and learn, which gives them a leg up against real players. The meta game thus ages faster, and much of the fun and mystery is killed long before the next game, leaving a void.

YES

Tingly. You know what used to always do this for me? That scene in Hook where the kid feels Robin’s face, just before saying, “It is you, Peter!”

I like to play Lizard folk, so I can lick my eyeball, and then tell the meat other party members their soft fuzzy bodies disgust me.

I know, right? It is funny!

That’s a mighty thin line. So alright, you always “win” something in a loot crate, but that’s a dumb, unconsidered argument.

These days there are more games than I can keep up with anymore, and I’ve taken a new philosophy of letting go and playing less games, but more of the ones I really like, so in that regard, I’m totally down with kicking the price for a complete (COMPLETE) AAA game to like $80-90.

Gameshark, no, but they eventually cracked it all the same. In a way, even worse, because the hack utilized the camera on the system and the QR reader, so anyone could use software on their PC to hack Pokemon, than just go to one of the hack websites, upload and generate a QR code :( It’s terrible, and they should be…

All the normal people have stopped playing online, and now it’s full of rampant cheaters, need ultra sun/moon to come out and revitalize the player pool.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but the big change I’m waiting for is the use of real names and no handles. Like, I get we gamers have strong bonds with our handles, I certainly do, but often times they feel uncomfortably out of place in a professional setting, IMO. I mean, Taco? Fallen? It’s like watching an NFL…

Continue that test. Make a list of about 500 games, then go find the cover art for them all, you can even use your smart phone if you like. Then go buy a printer that can match the quality from the game, because for the sake of the test as it applies to me, you don’t have one. And again, this is all at no additional…

Minutes, on average, would be more accurate, due to having to google them, create a folder, name each image as I shift through a stack/list of games, the actual printing, and what not, etc. And again, I’m talking about hundreds of games here, so now we’re talking a task of hours. I also successfully sold all of them…

Oh no I agree with that entirely, I meant more in terms of large collections, I literally had hundreds of games, and with the games I’m actively playing, as well as the continuous flood of games coming that never ends, most games in my library are there just to be memories. Sure there are few I keep around that I do…

Takes extra time/effort, plus money for all the printing, paper, and ink. With the result being obviously printed, lower quality images. What I have now is a quality, pleasant to look at, coffee table piece that suits my nerdy memories. So IMO, I don’t understand why I wouldn’t just chop up the cover art that’s…

Ok but really, someone unscramble Regi’s lips.

You do it you’re way, I’ll does it mine. ;)

People I’ve met in my sale of hundreds of artless games are split pretty 50/50. Some are OCD about the art, the rest don’t care in the least, just wanna play; I told them all the audience for my sales are the latter.

So really, we can cater to the emotions of others, or our own. Sooooo... *scissors smoothly slices into…

I got you. I had a huge collection, just recently finished downsizing for my move this month, here’s my advice:
