Cheating hacks have long been a problem in many games, but they remain a persistent part of the gaming world today. From FPS and MOBA games to MMORPGs and even open-world titles like Genshin Impact, where direct competition isn’t the main focus, cheating still exists. Recently, the Genshin Impact community was shocked and angry when a hacker confidently showed off his cheating achievements online.

According to this player, thanks to a plug-in tool, he managed to beat La Hoàn Thâm Cảnh, the hardest challenge in the game, in an incredibly short time, smashing all existing records. Using hacking software, he exploited it to max out stamina, remove cooldowns and transitions, boost attack speed, and max skill levels.

Normally, this kind of self-promotion wouldn’t be a big deal since Genshin Impact doesn’t have direct PvP competition, and his cheating didn’t affect other players’ experiences. But bragging about it online rubbed many the wrong way.

What’s more, he happily claimed that Mihoyo hasn’t taken any action to ban him. In reality, the Genshin Impact publisher has been slow to respond to third-party software and cheating issues. While they will eventually fix these problems, it will take time for Mihoyo to catch up.

The post quickly drew heavy criticism from the online community. Many argued that even without direct competition, exploiting game bugs like this is unacceptable and creates a toxic environment in the gaming scene. Others expressed disappointment with Mihoyo’s management, noting their recent lax attitude toward cheating.
