totally agree, but there are some things we just cant do. I bought Marauders to play with my son, and had maybe 4 months of excellent fun play with him. Then the dev's enabled EAC... now I cant play it anymore :-( I cant blame the mods, they never wrote the game to work on linux it was just a happy happenstance that i could use proton to play it before the EAC transition. Every game i have in my steam catalogue is at risk of this (except for the native ones obviously)

Why wouldn't you blame them? They should at least provide an option to turn it off like games used to. It looks like it's a co-op game; if you're playing with your friends/family why do you need anti-cheat?

  no self hosted servers otherwise yeah, like 7 days to die I'd just turn it off.

    Why do you need self hosted servers? Most looter shooters are p2p in game, right? Either way, you just need a filter to allow matching with other people that have anti cheat off. Or at least allow private groups in that mode.

      its been a while but from memory the EAC is mandatory. you cant launch or play without anti cheat. its not an option.

        Right, that's the criticism. Games used to make it optional. Why'd they stop (I suppose so they can sell you things like skins that you could otherwise just mod in like people used to)? They used to be about having fun. If you wanted to put gravity at 10% and make everyone use only rocket launchers with unlimited ammo, that fell within the parameters of having fun: https://youtube.com/watch?v=uo7-qyfeThU https://youtube.com/watch?v=uo7-qyfeThU
