This happened to me in Roller Coaster Tycoon and The Sims.

The analogy makes a lot of sense to me. Once you have an "easy button", it's hard to not use it. It's sort of like when you're at work and see the "quick workaround" effectively become the standard process.
I remember burning out on games because the cheats made them really fun in the short term, but afterward playing normally felt like agony.
Fun is subjective. Cheese is coded, cheese is allowed to be fun.
I guess I just enjoy the difficulty of the boss fights in those games, so cheesing them feels like I'm robbing myself.
You are not the one that is frustrated at the Nth try though. Your way of enjoying the game is as valid as any.
Are you kidding? The games frustrate the fuck out of me. I've rage quit countless times.
You either enjoy the difficulty or it frustrates you, pick one buddy xD
Or the third option: someone enjoys games differently than you.
I rage quit the final boss of Sekiro (Sword Saint Isshin) after hours of trying, on and off, for days. Came back after a break of a couple of days, and beat him on the first try. The feeling was unmatched. I felt like a god lol
