Why the fuck is there an anti-cheat in a single-player game? It's baffling.

So they can turn around and sell you the cheats through an online store.

Don't want to just giving yourself everything, gotta fork over even more if you want that pretty sword, or a collectibles map.

That makes sense now, and I'm slightly less perturbed; thank you. It's just grifters grifting, as they do.

They've been at it with this for a minute. I think Assassin's Creed: Syndicate was the first one I really noticed it in when it was pushing a map that showed you all the locations for one collectible.
