So my friend got busted using cheats in an old FPS we used to play, and it kinda sparked this whole debate in our group about why people even cheat in games in the first place. I never really thought too deep about it before, but now I’m super curious. Could you recommend something that explains the mindset or reasons behind it?

That’s an interesting debate! I’ve been thinking about it too since my buddy got caught cheating in one of our old FPS games. We always joked around about “winning at any cost,” but now I’m wondering why some people go that far. For me, it’s always been about the challenge and the fun, but I guess some folks might cheat to feel powerful or to make up for not having the time to grind. It’s a strange mindset. I found this article that digs into why some players cheat in-depth—it breaks it all down. Here’s a link if you’re interested: why cheat in games . It’s definitely worth a read if you want to explore the psychology behind it!
