@fleckenstein @lutris not gonna engage with you on this - itโs a bad take @gamingonlinux @lutris how dare people have fun in the way they like in within their own, dedicated spaces @fleckenstein @lutris ๐คฆโโ๏ธ not the type of game being talked about, read the room @gamingonlinux @lutris you never gave any more context than "online games" and "lutris game pages". online games can mean a lot of things and i don't agree that "cheating in online games" in general is unethical. You can't expect me to guess context that you don't provide. Would be nice if you did tell me what you're talking about. @fleckenstein @lutris games with anti-cheat, clearly not any of the type of games youโre talking about Destiny 2 @gamingonlinux @lutris I mean, games like Minetest, Minecraft, Veloren etc. have anticheat measures as well. I would know because I have literally worked on improving Minetest anticheat code as well as having made a cheat client for Minetest. In general I'd agree that games that have centralized infrastructure and don't allow you to set up your own servers usually do not have opportunities for ethical cheating. |
@gamingonlinux @lutris false. cheating in online games can be ethical depending on the context.
