Why did cheats (like big-head mode for example) stop being a thing in video games?
>>
because dad walked in while you were watching ebony porn

Did anyone even care about those?
Like, why would you need shit like big heads?
Cheats were nothing more than debug mode leftovers.

It was all fun to play around with it added to the charm of a game

graphics became so good that creating new assets became cost prohibitive

it was fine when your big-head looked like shit in NBA courtside for N64 cuz fuck it, the game is in 240p anyway

people are faggots

While, that just explains everything!
>Companies want to sell cheats as DLC, just like everything else in the game
>Nobody cares
>The companies stop caring
Boom, there you have it. Why make it if you can't sell it as DLC?

Does COD still do this? I've only played 4, BO, and BO2 and they all had neat stuff like this. Zork was my favorite Easter egg. I haven't played one since though.

They stopped making video games with fun as the main priority and started making them primarily for money instead.

Cheats these days are called DLC.

Ratchet and Clank still does it

Thanks Lori!

You don't even need cheats anymore because the game already gives you best armor in whole game in 10 minutes of gameplay.
