Semi related: I don’t use VRChat, but EAC is the worst piece of anti cheat software I’ve been subjected to.
It’s opaque, unhelpful and constantly crashes my computer. There’s a whole stack of stuff I can’t play with friends, but EAC politely sends my computer into a boot-loop every time I try to play something that uses it. Apparently it’s my choice of hardware, because even clean windows installs aren’t enough to avoid its ire. And of course it won’t tell you, and epics help amounts to “uuhhh update your bios lol?”.
At least Valorants anti-cheat has the dignity to tell you what it doesn’t like, and how to resolve it.
So good luck to all the people who will effectively lose access to vr chat because of epics awful piece of software.

- Cloudef 4y agoClient-side anti-cheat has always been anti-consumer. It's more of a invasive DRM.
- rebane2001 4y agoThere exist different levels of invasiveness. I've had issues with EAC multiple times, forcing me to reconfigure my system just so it'd let me play games. Something like VAC might not be as good at catching cheats as EAC, but it rarely causes problems and works great on a wide variety of systems and setups.
