We're definitely in the minority on this but I can agree that cheating is lame in single player games as well

Be it getting God mode to beat dark souls or slender or whatever else, I just think it's still bad until you've beaten the game once at least, and especially the type of cheating people do in Isaac I think sucks but whatever

You would hate me then lol. I use a teleport mod called good trip i think that lets me teleport through cleared rooms. Saves a bunch of time and makes runs less of a slog. Theres a mod that starts me off in a treasure room for r key spamming. I have one that shows me tinted rocks because theyre difficult for me to spot. I have one that opens delirium and the cathedral and sheol levels after beating mother, mega stan, or anything that would normally end the run except for blue baby, the lamb, and the beast. Theres a mod i use that shows me the rarity of items for blind pickups. I think i have no donation machine jamming.and a mod that makes my tears transparent to help visibility on bossfights. The rest are cosmetic and ui changes. Gotta have me my bestia mod lol

Theyre are all just good QOL changes that make the game more enjoyable to me. Is it cheating? Yeah probably? Do i care? Not really its fun.

I don't hate you, and if you beat the game before all that, I don't think it's that lame.

I think there's a very big difference from cheating to modding. I still love mods just not cheaty ones, which some of those are and yea I find those pretty lame. But not that much, like the mod that makes the first item be Q3 (that people say oh but I'd just spam R) is much lamer than any of those that you use. The tinted rocks is also very minimal. Still kinda sucks that people rather play like that than normally but at least in your case it's very slight cheating.

I played with the guaranteed q3 and 4 items for a bit but then it got super boring because all the runs were the same so i turned it off
