To top it all off, Shadows’ EULA also includes a provision that allows the game to monitor your PC’s RAM to ensure you’re not running any unauthorized programs like macros, cheats, or hacks, a well-intentioned clause that nonetheless feels a touch out of place in a single-player game and could potentially scare off some of the more suspicious players who aren’t comfortable with their hardware being monitored.

For a single player game by the way

    What the actual fuck? Is this game some kinda developer revolt? Are they trying to sink the studio?

    Weren’t they supposed to be in damage control mode after the broken Torii gate incident? Why are they trying to make Ghost of Yotei stronger? Are they stupid?

      They have ram monitors? I know they have denuvo and such but this is first time I have heard of a ‘ram monitor’

        I thought they did and that was one of the reasons Windows updates where breaking their games, but might have been a mistake on my part. Denuvo and mandatory Ubi link have been their standard for quite some time at least.

          Maybe, I have no idea… I do think we would have heard about it if it was in mirage for example.

      On the steam deck 3rd party launchers are a major pain in the ass.
