about killing cows for no reason number fourteen branded as a thief the legend of zelda links awakening this is a classic Nintendo cheat that many Zelda fans are aware of in the legend of zelda links awakening it is possible to snag a free item in one of the game shops simply walk in grab the item you want make him face the wall and run out of there before he can turn around you'll be able to nab the item for free but beware the game knows all NPCs will start to refer to you as thief instead of your character name for the rest of the game and the next time you enter a shop you'll pay the ultimate price cheaters would you rather link go out as a brave hero or a petty crook either way it'll be on your guilty conscience [Music] number thirteen a lengthy lecture Animal Crossing series speaking of a guilty conscience animal crossing will certainly put you through the wringer because animal crossing relies on activity in real time the game doesn't like it if you try to manipulate your save file by any means including air quotes forgetting to save you know who you are those who did so got to resume the game with an insanely long lecture from mr. Resetti you won't be able to do anything until you talk to him either as walking away will get him even more irritated this only gets worse in later titles when he may ask you to type out specific phrases like Heil resetti or even threatened to wipe your save file best not to get on his bad side number 12 botany bay runescape I would have believed you are more likely to emit the sound of grinding gears you clockwork demon there are many online games out there that will do anything they can to utterly humiliates runescape players will certainly know this for a fact due to the existence of an island made specifically for cheaters botany bay a historic reference to the british prison colony that eventually became Australia cheaters that are caught red-handed after two warnings prior will have their characters teleported to the island of botany bay where their character will be put on trial this cheat was presented with a contract of rules to uphold while they stayed in our lands and they broke them cheaters can watch helplessly as their character is humiliated and brutally killed off before being permanently banned from the game in moments like this we can't help but think of a certain scene from Avengers infinity war bust number eleven banned for over seven thousand years Monster Hunter Tri sometimes you just need to specify how long a lifetime ban can be Capcom was nice enough to provide a length of time before cheaters can play Monster Hunter try again cheaters will be presented with a message stating that their account has been banned until the year 9999 if you are somehow still around and the earth hasn't been obliterated by aliens or the apocalypse you can play the game again however if you are found cheating a second time then your account will be permanently banned wait the servers are closed already well that sucks for the people who cheated number 10 dirty hacker undertale it can be challenging for some players to see every ending a game has to offer for example undertale has almost a dozen different endings one of which requires that you hack the game in doing so the player will be greeted by sands who expresses his confusion in how the player got his error message he will go on to advise the player to contact the developer before indirectly accusing them of hacking the game and calling them a dirty hacker way to make a player feel guilty sands number 9 deleting your save file Banjo Kazooie cheating is a huge problem given how much technology is accessible to the public it almost kind of makes you miss the old days of using cheat codes with no consequences well one exception to that was banjo kazooie players could use cheats given to them by cheeto and bottles but there are also illegal cheats which allow you to unlock a world you can use a code once for free after the second time grande tilde will threaten to disable the save file enter a third code and she follows through you can keep playing but the next time you boot up the game your previous save file won't be there number 8 the serious room the Stanley parable in fact this is my serious room it's where I come to be serious if you were ever sent to the principal's office as a kid this punishment may be familiar a little too familiar although if you have a conniving friend that cheats a lot this might be a good joke to pull on them when playing the Stanley parable typing SV underscore cheats into the command box will put you in the worst environment that has ever existed the serious room you just tried to activate servant cheats which of course runs the risk of breaking the entire game you'll be forced to sit through a lengthy lecture by the game's narrator coaxing you about the mere thought of cheating cheaters don't ever win and the Stanley parable has certainly made its stance clear I'm going to the store to look through more tables to flay I find one that conveys how wrong what you're doing is number seven enslavement Ark survival evolved as with many online games Ark has had its fair share of cheaters and griefers thankfully the community has found ways to counteract jerks by capturing and enslaving their characters by doing this cheaters and griefers will be forced to either stop playing the game or serve their captors until they're set free the offender can't kill their character either as you can force feed them to keep them alive it's a form of vigilantism that seems right for exploitation but the community has shared a few success stories in changing the behaviors of terrible players number six player killer Red Dead Redemption most developers resort to humiliating cheaters in some form but rockstar games decide to get a little more creative with Red Dead Redemption any players caught cheating will find themselves unwelcomed in every town law enforcement will begin shooting at cheaters if they are within the area regardless if the cheater did something to provoke them to encourage a bit more vigilante justice the game will also label your account as player killer which can draw unwanted attention from other players hey if they're cheating for an ego boost why not just give them the spotlight by making them the biggest outlaw in the West number 5 game score reset and branded Xbox Live if you care about how impressive your game score appears to other players you best avoid cheating on xbox in April 2009 hackers were discovered to have obtained Xbox achievements in Gears of War 2 through unauthorized means in doing so they soon found their game scores completely wiped setting their accounts back to essentially zero this prompted Microsoft to launch a cheating policy of their own get caught cheating and her game card will be forever branded letting other players know you've cheated before and probably still are number 4 public humiliation and character deletion Guild Wars [Music] as we've seen throughout this list developers are not afraid of putting the spotlight on cheaters in a game like Guild Wars what better way to do this than by a public execution now there weren't ceremonies or hearings held no the executions just happened you could be talking to someone until doom appears out of nowhere and straight-up kills them in front of everyone it was such a unique event that if you ever saw something like this happen to someone you immediately knew they cheated at some point adding insult to injury the cheater would be permanently banned number three bowing an apology h1z1 [Music] demanding an apology from the cheater is nothing new in games h1z1 on the other hand has a very different way of going about it if you're caught cheating your account will be permanently banned the only way to recover it is to upload a YouTube video publicly admitting you cheated then email a link to the developers unfortunately this made many people salty and after receiving so many facetious apologies developer daybreak game company retaliated with a video mocking them I didn't cheat I was out of town in Jamaica on my honeymoon I came back to find my apartment had been burglarized and all my gaming accounts were compromised really was it really too much just to swallow your pride I recently got hacks from a friend and got banned within the day I barely abuse for them I just used them to find friends in the game to group up with well of course he only used him to find his friends he said he would never abuse them to kill another player why would he do that number two lawsuits fortnight Battle Royale it may seem like a petty move from the developer but there's plenty of reason for a cheater to be sued in November 2017 at the games filed a lawsuit against a fourteen-year-old boy for cheating but he wasn't just cheating for himself as court documents revealed that he was also selling his cheats for profit it wasn't an isolated incident either youtuber golden mods was also sued by epic in October 2018 for selling aimbot mods for fortnight on his website both cases were denied dismissal but were both settled for an undisclosed amount in epics favor seriously kids just don't cheat ever want more video game content check out our gaming channel mojo plays and discover games and ideas who never knew existed with more lists breakdowns in our latest series arcade roulette Justin and John are in there's a lot of things being ripped off in this game number one doing time play you're unknowns battlegrounds whereas Epic Games with sueing fortnight cheaters left and right pub G Corp has been sending they're cheaters straight to prison well in China at least in 2018 pub G Corp discovered over a hundred and forty Chinese hackers selling cheating software some containing Trojan viruses all hackers were arrested with some facing five point 1 million in fines cheating is as big of a problem as it has ever been in gaming it can hurt a game's reputation and discourage players from returning so developers won't take cheating lightly even if it means filing a lawsuit or dishing out a hefty fine look just play the game fairly like everyone else and we won't have any problems do you agree with our picks check out
