It's all about the "S" in YASDs. You show skills by avoiding them and adjusting to whatever you get on the next level. That shows that you can handle (almost) ANYTHING that waits for you out there. Reloading a save only shows that there is ONE situation on that level that you can deal with.

Subjective. I think of it as repulsive.

I just said that there is no need for a protection.
--- Quote from: ZZ on November 06, 2008, 13:24 ---I've cheatet for only purpose - to post a topic(which is right now not posted). I wan't to make a solution of "How to beat the N!".

That's research. Seems to fit more into the "Discussion" subforum and should doesn't make a single mortem helpful - it should rather be filled with your thoughts and/or stats you got from the game.
The stats, BTW, more fit the Wiki than the forums.

It's like cheating on your wife. It might be fun, but it's wrong and not something you want to talk about in public ;P.
Just a thought...
ZZ:
And what about really making it. I konow how to do this. And about savescuming - it shows the skill, but is much below the score. Whenn I was savescumming,I have been killed on lvl appr. 8 17 21 22 23 24( now I can beat them).
And about N!, I'm not sure about all of material, I want people to post their thought on topic.
Titt:
Savescumming and various other ways of cheating can be pretty important for playtesting the game and making sure everything works properly, but part of the point of a roguelike is that the balance and pace of the game is very particular and carefully designed; in my experience, any degree of cheating throws off the balance and pace, and makes the game completely unfun (for me, at least).
ZZ:
For you of course! Not for me. When you're cheating you MUST forget all of the basic rules and do your own. Like "demons can only be killed by themselves" or any other crazy thing. I've ompleted the wall with using only 1 phase devise(I mean without rockets). If you should think about just winning the game with cheatinng, you sould remember that "every foll could win the game with cheats". It's fun when YOU make it fun. This is the rule to cheat in ALL games.
PS: And should I post a Global Highscore topic(another), on which not the discussion, but scores will be?
Thomas:
Eh, scumming is horrible. Especially when I can already do silly challenges like shotgun-only games without scumming.
Well, I did scum my full win, but only level 24. I did level 1-23 without saving and I didn't save before the final boss.
Also wait a second, how did ZZ scum N!? There's supposed to be no saving on N! and if that got changed in some version then I demand it gets changed back in 0.9.9 BETA 1.
