    Most of the fun for the people breaking anti-cheat is the actual breaking of anti-cheat, not the cheating itself. It’s the script kiddies who use the already completed work with little to no effort involved who are doing most of the actual cheating.

      Most of the fun for cheat devs (that sell cheats) is the thousands they get off of children and neckbeards paying stupid amounts for their cheats.

        Ironically enough, those that sell cheats are more often cheating the cheat devs that wrote the script in the first place, not being able to do so on their own.

      Yeah I could see the appeal of breaking the anti-cheat code. But the actual cheaters find the cheats, often pay for them, install what could easily be malware, and take the risk of getting banned for using them. I don’t get the appeal.
