I'll put it like this: I am against the concept of cheating, since I primarily play adventure games, I mean cheating as in consulting walkthroughs,

Having to "give up" is something I generally hate to do and that is what you're doing after finally getting a hint after having been stuck for hours (or days).

But SOMETIMES the puzzles just seem illogical and when I read the solution and think that I would not have thought of that in a million years.
It's worse when I read a hint and realise how obvious it was, then I just feel stupid for not having figured it out.

The point is I guess, that solving games on your own gives you a great feeling and cheating, well... doesn't?
