I would generally disagree. It happens, but it’s still pretty uncommon. Kernel level anti-cheat doesn’t stop cheating, but it is invasive and a massive privacy/security risk.
Maybe particular titles have higher rates of cheating, like cod or battlefield, which I don’t play, but I’ve yet to run into any obvious cheating in Deadlock, SF6 or Guilty Gear Strive.
I put a couple hundred hours into dota 2 without meeting a single obvious cheater.
Team Fortress 2 had a botting problem for a long time that was pretty much resolved without the introduction of kernel level anti-cheat.
