    No, that is how you expect to play a game.

    Not everyone plays games the same as you or even for the same reason.

    If I get frustrated with a game, because I have to repeat the same part over and over, I just quit and go play a different game. Doing the same thing is boring. And life is already frustrating enough, I play games to relax and enjoy myself.

      I am not on a quest to prove you wrong over me being right.

      Do as you will, it is your life.

      But it is through learning from small, inconsequential things like games, of any kind, to deal with controversial or unpleaseant feelings that many kids acquire coping mechanisms to handle real life situations. Situations with no cheat code, dificulty setting or pay-to-win mechanisms.

      Wanting an escape, a tension release valve is fine. Just pick the right one.
