Basically, yes. Bloated shit that requires it's own launcher and kernel based anti cheat software. Maybe with some tweaking it would be possible.

No game requires kernel access regardless of OS

Chinese Spyware might need it but then no one should use it anyway

Doesn't Valorant use kernel-level anti cheat (Vanguard)?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Yes…and it’s owned by a Chinese company

Did I say in my original post that the game I want to play requires kernel based software?

Lol
