Cheaters want to dominate other players, feel like they deserve to dominate other players and are perfectly happy for other players to suffer as long as they feel good.
- drdaeman 7mo agoThat’s provably not universally true, although I have no idea about the exact demographics. Best I’ve ever seen was some online discussions about motives, but I never compiled any statistics out of random anecdotes (that must be biased and probably not representative).
- Marazan 7mo agoIf they weren't motivated by a toxic sense of self regard and a desire to humiliate others they wouldn't cheat. This is axiomatic.
- jasomill 7mo agoThat's a gross exaggeration. Some people just want to play the game, but lack motor skills commensurate with their other abilities. Are players who take advantage of developer-supplied aim assist and other assistive technologies "motivated by a toxic sense of self regard and a desire to humiliate others"?
- Marazan 7mo agoAre people who play the game as the developers intended using the tools the developer supplied cheaters? Wow, deep philosophical questions there. Gonna have to ponder if people who aren't cheating are cheaters.
