A lot of hardcore RPG'ers believe they are and praise games that disallow them opting for "save only in specific locations".

>saves states every 2 platforms like a faggot
at least beat a game right.

>RPG's
>hardcore
that's an oxymoron. RPG's are the casuals genre of choice

They are if you load a state more than once (ie. using save states to make the game easier for yourself instead of simulating a "leaving the console on overnight" scenario).

>old school PC player
>physically incapable of playing games without save states

theres a difference between easier and less tedious

This so much

Wew, you love RPGs that much?

>speedrunning is cheating

You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.

>*Savestating every 2 seconds*
Then what’s the point if there’s no risk? Might as well play on Very Easy Mode.

Saves states ARE cheating, they're cheating death by saving yourself time and frustration, letting you experience more during your youth and preserve your health

Ironman mode you scrub

Save States are fine if you use them to save time.
Like if you've mastered a section but have to repeat it over and over cause you're stuck on the boss.

I'm fine with them if it's a long ass rpg but for a shooter or platformer? naw dawg
