So that we don't cheat the game?

How can I know? Should I avoid those games?

That’s why this new feature is so great.

Take for example: Monster Hunter Wilds. It’s not popular AT ALL to mod/cheat the game. It never has been in any Monster Hunter. But the anticheat kept me from playing for about an hour on release, while I had to wiggle my way around it.

For whatever reason, they’re showing up everywhere now. It’s disgusting lmao

Sometimes it's so they can sell the "cheats" to you as microtransactions instead.
