I was thinking the same thing. If the de-obfuscation tools are already out there, it might cost them more money to keep that layer. Their developers also have to use it to read the crash logs and the like from the sounds of it. Less layers = less maintenance = less cost. More mods = keeps the game relevant.



I had to delay mine by about 2 years waiting for GPUs to come down. Ended up building the system without one until I got something slightly more reasonable (kept 2015 card for a while since that was still newer than the rest of the system core [2012-ish]). It does suck knowing that nothing of value was the reason (crypto at the time).
