    The only major roadblock is some anticheat software requiring highly invasive Windows rootkits to function, which Linux doesn’t really work with.

    I consider that more of a feature then a bug

        But good would we go about getting rid of those invasive species? They can just use a VPN making any societal pressure we put out pointless.

          I think alot of people just want to muck around, let them host the game themselves and play against AI or friends. I’ve heard of some games unknowingly putting cheaters in special rooms as well. This would hopefully get rid of the majority of cheaters. For the remainder we need to look into how we can disincentivise cheating (making gameplay interesting) as well has some moderation on the server side.
