[General Discussion] Playing with a walkthrough

For the most part, I try not to use walkthroughs unless I'm having a lot of problems with some part in a game. I really don't like to use them to solve puzzles or other things in a game that make me think, since I think that doing so sucks a lot of the fun out of games...Super Metroid would be kind of boring if you didn't have to think about how to use your equipment to get through all of the traps and stuff in it.

That said, I do pull up guides if I'm having trouble with menial, boring parts of games, like RPG boss battles. Even then, I usually stick it out unless I'm getting utterly creamed for some reason.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
