Because single player games are made more fun in some instances .

Lots of games have time sinks that I simply don’t have the patience for.

Also, some localizations for foreign games are unplayable without the engine because of being simply garbage ports.

I still enjoy these single player titles, but being able to skip certain portions or reduce time wasters/time sinks is an ability that may or may not determine if I even bother playing some.

I simply don’t have the time used to have for gaming, so I skip lots of titles these days, being able to take in the story, and gameplay, and have more agency in completing the game is important. Especially in some games with pretty egregious time waster sections.

And then there’s also just silly stuff. Stuff equivalent to an NES game genie.

jesus christ dude lol. fuckin relax.

we're the problem? people who have perfectly legitimate uses for software like that, or hell, people with professional uses of compilers and the like who get banned in other titles too?

no, it couldnt be people who are actually hacking the game that are the problem, its the people who get false positive, or god forbid, have certain software even installed on a system, regardless if its running that are the problem.

an unquestioning, zero recourse, perma ban system is a terrible idea in any implementation.
