| Stakeholder | Common Stance | Actions Taken | |-------------|---------------|----------------| | Casual Players | Mixed â some enjoy âchill survival,â others consider it cheating | Private modded servers with explicit âgod modeâ labels | | Hardcore Survivalists | Overwhelmingly negative â âdestroys the genreâs soulâ | Server-side anti-cheat (BattlEye, EAC) flagging detection-radius tampering | | Mod Developers | Divided; some create âinvisible strain liteâ (e.g., only vs. bugs/annoyances) | Whitelisting certain detection edits as optional difficulty sliders | | Game Developers | Generally oppose in multiplayer; tolerate in single-player if not achievement-breaking | Patch notes often include âfixed exploits allowing player invisibility to NPCsâ |
