Sacred Haven of Debauchery

the concept of cutting through complex locations and exploring through shortcuts

Isn't this gameplay?

But I didn't know that so many players express themselves incorrectly; well, that's it.

If you played, you would understand what they and we are talking about. But since you haven't played, you won't understand.

In general, I could have immediately written that evaluating a game based on the poor execution of exploiting a difficult spot by two unskilled players is not entirely objective, but that's obvious anyway, and there wouldn't be a conversation then.
