In a single player game no one should give a shit. Give yourself a million dollars. Mod in a gun that does 50,000 damage. A car that does 350mph.
It's pvp where people notice/care you're cheating
Yeah, I'm reminiscing because I was reminded of that particularly fun period in my life. Nothing to do with the main topic.
Have you tried gtao with mods/cheats? Its the only game that I happily "cheat in" because when I play, I just want to have fun with the new things. Also keeps you safe from other modders, and I've made quite a few friends just being able to enjoy the game and not grind.
I haven't played GTAO, but maybe I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip.
