But the challenge in a game's difficulty often comes in one's ability to do a series of button inputs with minimal mistakes in an established window set by the game designers. You say saving mid boss fight is cheating, but before a boss isn't? Perhaps the game designers intended the full stage AND boss to be part of the same challenge window in which your skill isn't allowed to falter, and saving before a boss when you normally couldn't would be seen as a form of cheating.

So you'd say that since the Mario 64 speedruns that use glitches don't beat the game the 'intended way', that they aren't really legitimately beating the game?

And on the other hand, a game like Far Cry 4. You can beat the game by doing almost nothing. A way the developers actually intended a means of victory. You even see the credits!
