/vr/ - Retro Games

Are you supposed to cheat in these games? There is no way to beat it all the way through with the finite lives you get.
>You have to be perfect and memorize every detail of it so you don't get a surprise death.
>This is a commitment that takes weeks, maybe even years.
>Not only that but each boss will require you to memorize their patterns too, only adding to the time that it will take to master them.
>There are no save states for you to actually utilize what you learned. You have to start over from the beginning and re-do all the things you already mastered.

I am just overwhelmed by what the game is expecting of me to be honest.
