Hacking...

[Mentality-]

So i wanted to ask how did PC hacking came to life? Like how did it become a thing to hack on games?

[Dab]

I think it's because of ZZT, people would make mods for the game and from there "hacking" the game became apart of modding it until later on when we had other people hack the game completely to make editors and stuff for the game.

Somebody wanted to be better than others? I mean, hacking as general since 1945 when first virus came out i'f I'm right, wasnt malicious though, first malicious virus was 1957 I think.

If you are asking, "How did hacking games become popular?", then your answer is simple; people always want to have an advantage over others, and cheating is almost always an option.
Just like people have the tendency to lie, steal,etc.
It is part of human nature to want to "cheat".
Who doesn't want to be the best in the game?

It's already been said; Some people wanted to be better than others. Unskilled gamers needed a way to be the best.

Game hacking is just an extension of hacking, which is just an enthusiast form of displaying one's interest. No different than modding a car, or rooting a phone. It is it's own form of inventing and has been since man has existed.
