This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's a "cheat code" kind of thing. Are games more fun when you're invincible? When you have the best weapon?
I used to play games with cheat codes. They don't make the game "more fun" outright. They allow you to condense some fun into a shorter chunk of time, then the game subsequently has less replayability.
Deactivating weapon durability might make the game "more fun" in the short term, at the cost of reduced long-term playability. So it's no surprise that people who activated this particular cheat code had an experience like that of most cheat codes, reduced long-term enjoyment.

Ok, so pc gamers have a lower tolerance for setbacks than Switch gamers?
Lol sorry I insulted your personality... I mean this video game made by a corporation. Sorry, easy to mix up.
Who's insulted? You admitted that an element of difficulty made the game too hard. I don't think people will be lining up to insult me about that... except perhaps people in denial about finding a Zelda game too hard. But why would I care what they think?
Too hard or too tedious?
What exactly is it about having to go fight the same enemies over and over again to farm weapons from them that makes it more challenging or engaging?
