Will you get banned on steam if you use cheatengine to increase your lvl and get currency?
As title.

(SP game so I think no harm to use it??)

Steam only bans with Valve Anti Cheat or for community violations. Everything else is up to the developers/publishers of the game and/or their anti-cheat provider that they've contracted out to.

As this game is not under Valve Anti-Cheat's jurisdiction, if you are 'caught' then expect no further repercussions beyond the hammer of WB potentially denying you access to current and future services.




But for real it's single player premium currency I don't think anyone gives a ♥♥♥♥

thanks for the reply, I was interested on this since I saw a post on reddit about cheatengine.

Seems silly to do so..

You probably will get banned, that's why you should not accept the TOS or cheat in such case.

There is genuninely no need, dont risk it. Loot boxes are completely pointless. I have gotteon one spoils of war loot box from multiplayer content and the pre order stuff, i have used literally none of it and am on stage 9 of act 4.

You actually have such easy ways to get mirian that cheating makes it pointless.

EULA have been shown over and over in court to be unenforcable, especially when poorly written. if they mass banned people for this and someone with enough money (or a lawyer wanting to make a name for himself) noticed then you'd likely see it overturned.

When publisher revokes your key, I'm sure you feel warm & cozy in knowning that it's not legally binding when you're not able to play Shadow of War any longer.

Don't forget to take WB to court so that you can get your subscription back, because most gamers don't have enough time & money to do so...
