Topic	If you use rewind/save state to finish a game, did you beat it?

That's the issue at hand People that feel the need to dictate what is and isn't "beating" a game feel the need to make it a competition in order to try to feel superior to others for some reason. They don't want to feel on the same level as somebody who used rewind or savestates, thus they want to insist it's not beating the game. That way they can continue to look down on others. And just "Oh they used rewind" isn't enough, they feel the need to insist the other person can't say they beat the game at all. That's the only reason that makes sense for people that are bothered by others beating a game differently than they did. EDIT: And I'm not saying this to be insulting. I'm just saying that if you are truly bothered by somebody else saying they beat a game when they used rewind/save states/whatever, then you have some subconscious desire to feel superior/make it a competition, because otherwise it has no impact on you or your life whatsoever. but aren't you doing the exact same thing? the only difference is that you have decided that it 'is' beating a game, while your opposite side has decided that it 'isn't' beating a game. you are acting superior to mike matei. he is acting superior to people who use rewind states. and if the point is that you don't care, then why do you seem to care so much what mike matei or random people on board 8 to consider to be not a valid way of beating a game? how does this affect you in any way unless you value their opinions? --- now I only see your dull imposter https://imgur.com/BYYr6fn <cite>MariaTaylor posted [p:932254070] in If you use...
