“Victim” is 1a good word for what I’m going to write about. You can know it from the title. In 21 century the online game becomes a very popular activity for many people. Most of those gamer play their game on Video game digital distribution platform. Steam is one of the examples that show the success of Video game digital distribution platform because million of a gamer plays their game on Steam. And every online game that sells on Steam have a player that is a hacker or cheater So to protect the player from a hacker, the game needs to have anti-cheat that ban player, and I not agree with the ban, because many time banning the cheater is not helped to cure any cheater problem and it makes millions of gamer on Steam become a victim of the ban. And I believe that many gamers will thing like me if you have played many online games.
Second, there are many types of hackers such as Script Kiddie, White Hat and more. Make many games companies use many ways to punish hackers players such as a ban, kick or report, but many innocent players still get a ban. In my opinion, a ban does not just disrupt innocent player but it still not a very good fix to the hacker problem. You can still see cheater every match you play even the game ban it. Apex Legends is one of a great example. The big new games call Apex Legends, a hero shooter game develop by Respawn Entertainment have at least one cheater in every match. They have banned over 355000 players after releasing theme game for 1 month. Apex Legends add many ways to stop a hacker such as a reported or anti-cheat bot, and latest they added was a hardware ban, which bans players from the computer they play, but hacker problem still not get a fix until now. I think a ban does not fix the problem. Come on! those hacker don’t even afraid computer IP ban.
Next, for me, a ban is not a way the I gonna choose because sometimes you do something wrong you gonna lose it. Popular twitch streamer Shroud, he had spent his time playing Playerunknown’s Battleground (PUBG) with the strange hacker. He rode hacker flying car and scored one kill make he got banned for a month, and it becomes the reasons why Shroud stops playing PUBG. That why game admin should check the player carefully so they don’t make a mistake on banning because a random ban leads to a loss of player and the fans.
Next, I think everyone has something that you love but what it gonna feel if that thing broke. Nine years ago Valve the owner of Steam has randomly ban massive of players because there is a lot of cheater in Valve games. However, after that massive groups of a gamer show their disfavour to random bans. They were given after playing Modern Warfare 2 and receiving a ban. The only way to play online again after receiving a ban would be to buy the game again. Made the gamer adamant for their innocence. You know, to get ban for something that you enjoy, love or related to is not fair for those gamer who is a big fan of the game they love.
To sum up, I disagree with a ban because banning people from the game is not helping to fix any hacker problem, and It also makes a massive problem if it bans the wrong player. Some people agree with a ban. Maybe they have tasted the pain from the cheater but if you be the one that got a ban from something that they don’t even know about. If you are the one who very loves the game and you have relative to it but one day you have to lose it from something that you didn’t make it up. The ban is not a good idea to stop a hacker problem.
