And now they have more fun working with hardware than software. No needing to reverse engineer the game either since you're just processing display output and executing inputs on separate hardware like an Arduino or Raspberry Pi
With DMA based cheats I disagree as if you were developing a DMA based cheat you would still need to understand how the game works so you can figure out what memory adresses are for what part of the game.
You're assuming the anti cheat won't refuse to run if a DMA device is installed.
DMA devices are capable of spoofing their hardware IDs to legitimate hardware IDs to get around that.
