People are losing their shit about EA WRC because there is a new patch coming that uses a kernel-level anti cheat. Seems like this is the new standard. While I'm big into PC gaming, I honestly have little knowledge about anti-cheats and which are good and bad. I have a basic understanding of what kernel level means, but outside the people screaming about how dangerous it is, it seems there are far more games that have it than I realized. Not sure whether to panic, be cautious, or outright abandon all games that have it. But it seems to be a developing trend I'm noticing with games these days. Thoughts?

The persons developing cheats can get around it by using the hypervisor in the computer, basically running the game in a virtual machine that they then have near full control over and can feed back to the anti-cheat software any answer they think it expects. I rarely play online games and even then only with "known persons" (my family) so it's not a large concern for me.

I am enjoying Ghost of Tsushima on PC but at 20 hours I'm wondering if I have seen all the game has to offer. I enjoy questing about an open world but the scenery and tasks seem to be quite similar so far.
Performance is abysmal; I'm playing at 1920x1200 on a 2k monitor with a lot of the graphics setting turned down. This doesn't cause me any grief but I wonder why at proper rez and full settings I get huge freezes and stutters.

Watching JackFrag's video on it. It looks solid. I like the idea of bad guy AI like Ready or Not.
