Cheesing labeled as "cheating"

Just read this Gamasutra community member's post from Friday: "Anything goes: How Destiny just went Free-to-Cheat." This is my first MMO, so I'm new to the mentality of "cheesing = cheating." Taking advantage of exploits to cheese stuff is nothing new, obviously, but I'd never heard from the contingent of folks who decry it. As for me, I'm happy to cheese while we can. I've always believed that if you're using the tools the devs gave you—your system and controller—and not hacking into a registry and flipping bits around to make a game go your way, anything goes. So articles like this make me want to dismiss the critics as being butthurt. But I definitely value knowing I can do things legit as well. (Not that we'll have any choice after today's update.) What are your thoughts on the legitimacy of cheesing raids, strikes, etc.?

  • Honestly it's annoying how the raids are apparently not tested for crap like this before release. Like the abyss. If you have lamps that explode with enough force to launch you across the map, how could you not expect people to find a way to twist that mechanic into their favor?
