Ohh and before you jump on it, I'm not saying there are never decisions to be made in auto-scrollers, I just find them limited and not as interesting as the genres I do enjoy.

Also I don't think my prefered games are "better" they just appeal to me and my tastes. People who love Mario, rock on.

There is at least one case where save states both help you learn and save time.

When I was trying to get good at Puyo Puyo I fought through the lower levels normally, but then made a save state at Zoh Daimaoh and the Prince and would fight them over and over until I was good enough that I beat them regularly.

That was because they were so much more exciting than the lower levels, but now when I play I just start from the beginning and use the early stages for more practice on chains and stuff.

But I have no doubt that playing just the hardest enemies for extended periods sped up my learning and made me better at the game faster.

Am I a bad person for using save states to keep playing the higher level enemies in Puyo Puyo? When I sit down to play for five minutes I don't want to play through the boring first stages again, I want to jump into where it's hard.

It would be a Puyo Puyo mod
