Secure Boot is ridiculous.
Requiring PC players to potentially brick their motherboard by enabling Secure Boot is a slap in the face. It has seriously lowered the chance that I will buy the full game on release. Why should I b...

To be clear, my understanding isn't necessarily that Secure Boot auto-stops cheats from working, but creates a permanent hardware ID for the machine and OS, which makes permanent bans signficantly more difficult (and/or at least expensive) to go around as it requires new hardware. Unfortunately, this comes at the expense of many legitimate folks needing to change settings in their BIOS, and many (not saying you, OP) which are not technically inclined end up breaking their OS install due to needing to switch from Legacy/BIOS to UEFI in the process (which will not let Windows boot)
I doubt that there are many users with Legacy BIOS on the system. Especially a system that can run a AAA game in 2025. Intel discontinued support for legacy BIOS in 2020. Thats 5years ago
Understood, but note that the minimum spec I believe is the Intel 8xxx series [and AMD equivalent] which dates back to 2017. While that's now 8 years ago, I can fully imagine that there's folks that have upgraded their GPUs but not CPU or whathaveyou. Granted, many of these folks will be required to turn on SecureBoot and such in order to upgrade to Win11 (as it is also the minimum CPU required for it), but that's tangentially related.
