Valve is now reversing VAC bans due to AMD drivers in CS2, according to patch notes (store.steampowered.com)

Recently there was a thing where VAC would erroneously flag AMD's antilag+ feature as cheating, and issue a ban.

AMD then quickly disabled the feature by default but now Valve also patched detection for it and is now, at least according to these patch notes, reversing the bans.

That's extremely interesting, thank you!!

Nowadays the only platform I buy my games from is gog, I made the right choice it seems.

But people who need to play the newest games don't really have a choice.

no one needs to play any game

it's just a matter of how willing someone is to compromise on their principles for entertainment

When I was a teenager I played the newest games too, so I won't judge. Privilege of the young. Today my time is scarce, so I have the luxury of carefully choosing my titles, and I choose DRM free. But back then I would have "needed" to play the newest Assassin's Creed.
