I want you to know that I literally work in this space and you are handwaving away an incredibly complex problem space that hundreds of smart people have been trying to solve for decades now and it's only getting harder (good cheat suites use hypervisor mods and direct memory access kits these days). I would love to educate this community but I'm under NDA (in addition to not wanting to provide information that attackers can use to better understand how we approach this problem space)
Cheaters are preferable to your proprietary kernel-level anti-cheat and whatever sneaky plans you may have for users and their computers. Good luck winning an arms race.
If I ever do multiplayer (I hate networking) I plan to explore treating cheaters as a service problem, like pirates are to piracy.
