Re: Triggers, scripts, and bots

You can't enjoy a game if you're not actually playing it. Every challenge overcome by your bot is a challenge that you miss out on. Assuming the content is enjoyable (which it should be if the game has been well designed), then each piece of content your bot completes is another potentially enjoyable experience you've lost out on.

Because in order to catch up with the more experienced player you still have to play the game, complete the content, overcome the challenges. You don't have to compromise your own enjoyment in order to compete.
