What do you guys feel about video game hacks?
Like to skip levels, zero difficulty, and get a lot of in game funds to bypass the actual game play for enjoyment. Basically cheat. Children I met who do these things don't enjoy games as much as they used to and seem to develop the telltale signs of nerd raging.

I feel good.
I don't really like hacks that make the game easier. Just the ones that add extra stuff.
Cheating in online/pvp games is awful. Messing with single player games can be kinda fun, kinda boring.
I've only cheated during the story on Kingdom Hearts.
It's impossible to beat the 3 bosses from Neverland, Agrabah, and Olympic Colosseum without them.
Online games= No. Never.
gta cheats are the best :O
I only use cheats in games I've already played through (example, pokemon) but I don't in online rpgs (because playing for fun is better than playing for the most godliest stats and weapons to fill a void that was made because you were called a noob that one time).
And kids these days (the ones born in 2000, aka the not-90's kids) are, well, the majority of them are total idiots, to put it mildly. They'd rage if they don't get their way, a lot of them have smartphones and are spoiled to hell. If I was a game dev, I'd make a game SO strict on age that there's going to be a randomly generated quiz to make an account using highschool material as a basis (like solve for x if y=50 and the problem is like 2x = 6 / 2 + y^19 or something like it).
Immaturity leads to people using unfair advantages in a game. And there's not a lot of game out there that DON'T have some sort of hack or cheat in it that can be a safe haven for legit players.
Beat the game first, then have fun with cheats.

Pretty much my golden rule. After the story is beat and side missions, I'd possibly hack my way around to see things I couldn't see before. Like in GTA3 the cheat that makes your car jump really high, I used it to get on top of buildings. There was this funny message hidden behind a building saying "You weren't supposed to reach here". Fun stuff.
As a personal ROMhacker and heavy Action Replay user, I can tell you it is pretty fun to alter the game to your needs
You can make it harder or easier, faster or slower, change the gravity, change the engine
I love to make kirby games harder and reduce the grinding on RPG games.
Right now I am working on Legend of Mana
So far I made everything faster, challenging bosses, weapons balanced and made magic useful
on any online game, it shouldn't be done full stop.
On non-online games, after you have finished the single play story then cheats are free reign.
on a game like maple its all fair in a fps game no I usually rage call them nerds/trolls.
some cheats are great like unltd ammo
but skipping levels is kinda stupid
Noclip = fun.
I would only hack/use the console command in single player.
