But yeah, no matter what the anti cheat measure is, all it takes is one person cracking it.
Best case is they get it as good as DRM for pirated games. Last I looked into it there was really just one random woman who clearly had a couple different mental illnes (not an insult, literally unwell) who was able to crack a widely used type of DRM.
But she could, and if she ever stopped, someone else would quickly learn. Because for cracking games the difference between 1 and 2 people is negligible, it’s a lot of work and if not working together your both wasting time on the same game. But the difference between 0 and 1 is incredible. Lots of people with the skill simply has no reason to learn when someone else is already doing it
With cheats, there’s a monetary incentive because you’re selling to people who will keep needing to buy a new account, and new cheats
Reminds me of a Trevor Moore song:
