Have you ever watched "walk throughs" when you got stuck on a videogame level?

Guilty. Do you consider it cheating?

No, I like to figure it out the hard way

Guilty!
I remember which ones….

Portal and I even “cheated” to get past one level though second play-through I knew what I had to do…. Portal 2 because I wasn’t paying attention enough and it was a total of 3 times lol.

Red Dead Redemption 2, it was glitching out the cutscene trigger so had to look up what it was supposed to look like to know where the glitch issue is happening so I restarted the level from the beginning (Ugh!) then it didn’t work so I restarted it again (worked)….. It wasn’t as easy as go back to the last checkpoint, it was the whole level.

There were other times I looked up walkthroughs like for this “LEGO” type game that I vaguely remembered….

Yeah I have, especially when there is a puzzle level or a specific knack to getting past a certain point. Some games I want to enjoy and not get stuck on some bit that you need 3 sets of hands,

Getting stuck on a tough videogame level feels like being stuck in an art block while drawing—it can be super frustrating! 🎮🖌️ I’ve definitely turned to walkthroughs for help, just like how I look at reference images for my art sometimes. I don’t see it as cheating at all. Think of it as learning from others and enhancing your own skills. Similar to how sharing art techniques with a friend can make the creative process more enjoyable, walkthroughs can make gaming more fun. What’s important is the experience and enjoyment you get out of it, not just the final outcome. 😊

Typically after trying everything I can think of, yes. I don’t see it as cheating.

I like long detailed planning.
