100%. Cheat Engine is an excellent tool for working around old odd mechanics that don't quite work right or were balanced against gamer expectations from an era that was very different from today. Or just as a tool for bypassing game design decisions that you happen to disagree with.
Sometimes you get games that have a fully feature dev console and you can do it all in-game, but that's sadly much rarer these days.
- Andrew_nenakhov 5y agoI mostly used it in Rome: Total War to keep enemy settlements population high. With Huge army sizes, computer players quickly deplete their manpool and can't field a decent army, leaving you with no opposition once you survive the first onlsaught. So I locked in their cities pops to the max. Or I do it to fight boring grinding, because at my age I don't have time for such meaningless activities
