    I remember when it came out people were saying it’s anti-cheat was basically malware. Denuvo, I think?

    Anyway, it’s disappointing because I hear it’s a truly great game. But between this and that, I think I’m soured on the idea of playing.

      An hour after this announcement was made, a tiny update was pushed via GamGuard to steam players and now there’s a .DLL file that’s being flagged by antivirus as a malware. My AV detects and cleans the file, making the game completely broken. There a Steam discussion about this issue and, surprise surprise, the file in question is used by GameGuard.

      I’m sure it has nothing to do with Sony’s recent announcement of their patent for biometric harassment detection.

      That’s exactly why I purchased the game on ps5 instead of PC. And now I also don’t have to worry about this issue.
