Perhaps, but it's far better to have cheaters and bots than to have games require a rootkit to play them.

- Cthulhu_ 2y agoWell no, because they ruin the online experience making people not play the game. (in theory, GTA online has had / still has huge problems with bots and cheats but still earns the publisher hundreds of millions a year)
- throwaway48476 2y agoThey have problems because they're cheap and don't want to pay to host servers. They don't want to let people host their own authoritative server either because of the $billions in fake money.
- bigstrat2003 2y agoI understand that cheaters suck. I'm saying that in this case, the cure (kernel access) is worse than the disease.
- kelnos 2y agoI think that's a matter of opinion. Personally I find both unacceptable: I won't play a game that requires me to install a rootkit, and I won't play a game where cheaters and bots run rampant, ruining the fun for everyone. So hopefully there's a solution to this that doesn't require a rootkit.
- Thaxll 2y agoYou definitely don't play games, this is one of the reasons why people stop playing games.
- bigstrat2003 2y agoI do play games, a lot. I even play multiplayer games. So, you're wrong.
