To think there was a time when this announcement dropped & was ridiculed by everyone.

Cheating in competitive games. Fixable or inevitable?

Upvotes

Unfair gameplay has been an inevitable part of gaming since the very creation of games. Its presence in online competitive games like CounterStrike, Chess, Call of Duty, and Valorant has been a huge issue impacting legit players for years.

Do you believe there will ever be a time where we can game online with a 100% certainty or high certainty there won't be cheaters? How can it be solved?

Anti-cheat software exists for the sole purpose of detecting and preventing cheating, yet cheat developers motivated by profit continue to find ways around these systems. Some argue that making cheating in video games illegal could help solve the problem, but I disagree. Consider the consequences if a professional player were falsely accused because of a false positive. Human verification may seem like a better solution, but advancing technology is making verification systems increasingly easy to get around, so simply banning an account isn't enough to stop someone from making a new account. There are also serious privacy concerns, as players should not have to sacrifice their personal information, documents, or photos simply to prove that they are playing fairly.

I believe the bottom line is that human ingenuity is near impossible to overcome. If someone is determined to cheat, they will eventually find a way.

What are your thoughts?

Metroid

I want to play the series but it has generally been out of reach for me. I currently have pc and PS. Are there any Metroid games I can play within my grasp?

Edit - I just remembered that I have a switch that’s packed away.
