Totally fine to do so. At the end of the day, who am I to judge how someone plays a single-player game in their leisure time? Sure, I can offer perspectives as to how I would deem a good playthrough to look like, but does it really matter?

I’ve had games that I played with a guide alongside playing which I wouldn’t have been able to finish by myself otherwise. Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask, for example, were among my first ever Zelda games after A Link Between Worlds and I just wasn’t familiar with this kind of freedom and problem solving in video games up until that point. If it weren’t for guides, I wouldn’t have been able to finish either of them at all
