    I watched this video yesterday. Holy fuck it was so good for someone who only had 3k subscribers.

    I actually believed that kernal level anti cheats stopped all cheating. I had never considered the lengths people would go to.

      This is what allows AC devs to continue working on their useless code that only makes a mess out of everyone’s PCs and getting money with it. Same with DRM devs.

      All software has bugs, so you’ll never have a 100% effective anti-cheat. It’s going to be an arms race between cheaters and game devs, and the cheaters will always find a way.

      All kernel-level anti-cheat does is introduce security vulnerabilities to your system and delay the inevitable.

      There will also always be external methods to cheating, like screen recording based.

        MSI is releasing a monitor, with cheating built in… Granted it only “highlights” things but still.
