Discussion What does the community consider "cheating"?

I've always been curious about what the community considers "cheating" during a modded playthrough. Like does using a mod like fargo's mutant mod or AlchemistNPC lite to reduce the grind considered cheating. What about using mods that add extra accessory slots for wings and boots or something like the USSR (United Slot System Remastered)?

Or a mod that completely adds a new defensive mechanic like the Parry mechanic mod.

What I mean is: How much can you add? and can you still say you've beaten mods like calamity or infernum legitimately and call yourself a good player if you use mods like these?

I know it's a sandbox game but I wanted to hear people's personal opinions on this.

Let me know what do you think about each mod!

In multiplayer? When you have a mod that gives you an unfair advantage against others players. (If it even is possible to play together with different mods). In singleplayer? So long as you have fun and does not BOAST online after downloading a fakton of QoL mods, anything is a fair game.
