Do Cheat Codes Still Have a Place in Modern Gaming?

[lukedorian]

Hey everyone,

I’ve been feeling a bit nostalgic lately and started thinking about the old days of gaming when cheat codes were everywhere like infinite lives, secret levels, or unlocking hidden characters with just a button combo.

Nowadays, it feels like most modern games don’t really include cheats anymore, or they get replaced by microtransactions, mods, or DLC. Do you think cheat codes still belong in today’s gaming culture, or have they outlived their purpose?

Would you like to see them make a comeback, or do you prefer games without those kinds of shortcuts?

For single player games you mean?? if this is the case they are called game trainers and there are sites also dedicated to offer it, just like this one but for single player games, i do use one of the few there are, like for example, unlimited jumps, no damage, god mode etc on games like Hollow knight: Silk Song
