I'm going to be banned by one of these. A huge trend in gaminng is to enable kernel-level-anticheats, which allow games to read your system and look for cheating programs on your system. The catch is they don't necessarily have to be active or even for that game. They can just be on your system and get you banned. On my computer I have several versions of CheatEngine. Why? In games like GTA the mouse sensitivity is not fast enough to allow me to play with my disability. So, I use that program to increase the mouse sensitivity. It affects no one else but it allows me to play a game I would be otherwise locked out of. In another instance, I use Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Every time I play Escape from Tarkov the anticheat blocks its hooks and warns me I'm using an illegal program. The only thing Dragon NaturallySpeaking does is allow me to type just like it's doing now to allow me to type this post to you. This isn't a lazy dev problem, it's a lack of hiring security. Using heuristics security professionals can observe metadata to look at your overall statistics and progress as a player. If you are really bad and using one of these programs you are suddenly very good, it's easy to see you are cheating. If a security expert was to look at my gameplay they would see I'm using a cheat program and I am still absolute garbage at aiming and my stats are horrible. But thanks to that program I am able to play the game at all, which means I can have fun being not-gud. I don't have the magic bullet solution to this problem. Developpers have to be able to protect games from cheaters. But we have to be careful not to get innocent people caught up. All I can say is we must find ways of differentiating people who are cheating to win and disabled people who are using programs that could be used for cheating as a way to access the game and play the game badly. pcgamer.com/according-to-exp…
