I use save states, but I try not to use them too much. Even though others don't think it's cheating, I think it kind of is. I usually just save right before I make a yes/no decision just so I can read all the text and go through that path or whatever and not have to play over again.

I never use them. I don't like cheating on games I havent beat yet. Now After I beat it I go crazy with it.

i use save states once in a while, when i'm stuck on a boss or something. but most of the time, i don't use save states. i don't like cheating that much, i'd rather do it the boring but honest way

I use them constantly when I'm playing FE, or any other SRPG. Other than that, I try not to use them as often.

I use save states in place of saving with the game, so I use them a lot.

I like to play games that tend to have save points very far away (don't know why, I think it's just my luck). In short, save states are my heroes...

I only use them when there's something big on the next event or I just want to see an event again and again or just to save for backup.
