I've built hacks to undermine recurring payment structures in games. It has very little to do with cheating, and everything to do with fighting a corporate trend that I would like to see abolished in games.

Gaming companies care far more about these kind of hacks, but frequently lump them into the "cheating" category for better optics.

When I see a game that sucks on purpose, my solution is to simply play a good game instead, rather than spend hours trying to work around the suckage.

Bad games don't deserve your time any more than they deserve your money.
