Atomic

I were the schoolyard legend.

I knew basic English at the age of 7 and advanced english at 12. so I was the only kid that could actually translate what they said in various games

I also knew how to duplicate pokemon in 1st and 2nd gen for Gameboy.

That's all it took. What is now easily obtainable information was a black hole of forbidden knowledge back then.

let's make sure we keep them to that standard then.

Can you easily farm SC in the game? Yes.

Just because others have it worse, doesn't mean you should settle for slightly better than terrible.

If it's war and combat you want there is absolutely no shortage of that going on...

You're born just in time.

Dude, they're not racists for disagreeing with your reasoning.

Racism, of various levels, are built upon hundreds of years of mistrust, inequality and misinformation.

It's not as simple as just "cmon can't we all just get along?". And they are trying to explain this to you. And inform you that it's a difficult and long path that has to be built slowly and carefully, and each place on earth will have to build it in a way that works for them, because all places experience racism differently.

Them trying to explain this to you doesn't make them racists. None of them are saying discrimination is ok. Not a single one.

I read your comment. I didn't downvote.

I'm using the "you" in the colloquial sense, i see that wasn't apparent to you. (You as in you the singular individual)

I understand you are against kernel level anti cheat. That's ok. That's an opinion. But your argument that it's some kind of secret which games have it or not, is not a matter of opinion. It's verifiable. And It's just not true. It's not a secret. You can easily find out if you want to.

You can make the argument that platforms should make publishers divulge that information on the games page. And I say sure, why not.

But it always will be your responsibility to make sure you know what you're installing.

Unfortunately. It is an armsrace against cheaters. And 1 single cheater can easily ruin the entire experience for hundreds of players. I understand why games might want it. I hope they can find more clever ways of detecting cheats without it.

As a final word. Lemmy is a big place. It's utterly ridiculous of you to assume I'm the one who downvoted.

People need to take responsibility of their own machines.

While they might not hold out a sign that says "KERNEL LEVEL ANTI CHEAT". There is information available to make an informed decision.

Your cake and fork argument makes no sense at all. The game company isn't telling you what you can and can't do with your hardware. But they are telling you what you will be installing. It's there if you know where to look. And if you don't know where to look. You have the combined knowledge of the world at your fingertips for guidance.

I don't know what you do. But when I buy a cake. I look at the ingredients to see what and how much it contains of various things. If I don't like what I see, I won't be buying it. Because I certainly won't be eating it.

And I'm also not going to buy a plastic fork to eat it with. See how I made that decision. The cake company didn't make me buy a certain fork, and the fork company didn't make me buy a certain cake. I decide.

It's ultimately your responsibility to understand what you are installing. Information is available.

No one is forcing you to install their game.

It's so easy to look up what kind of anti cheat games use.

You can't eat the cake and have it too.

They don't have a right to install anything without your consent. However. You pressed the "Install" button. And you boxed in "I understand" and clicked "I agree".

You know what also isn't done by a significant part of the world? Eating insects. But im not gonna go and call their eating habbits weird just because it's not something I grew up with.

It's called being tolerant and accepting of others culture.

Russell said that Max said.

Seems to be par for the course. Doctors have for some time now spoken about the vast number of children that have been shot. Not just shot. Shot in the head.
