Sounds like they added a pretty invasive anti-cheat technology on top of everything else.
I'm getting really tired of game devs thinking that it's ok for them to give themselves kernel level access to my machine. It's getting to the point where I'll just skip a game if it demands that level of intrusiveness as a requirement to play it. There's plenty of other games bro, I don't need to play your malware.
And conditioning the populace to just passively accept having their machine hacked and backdoor access installed for state level actors to later maliciously exploit.
Note that 50% of those state-level actors will be "hackers" or "4chan hacking group"s for plausible deniability, since, after all, you willingly installed commercial access to kernel access for anyone to take.

Kernel anti-cheat in a PvE game... what the fuck.
It’s never been about snuffing out cheating. It’s about data collection and selling.
