A notorious hacker is infiltrating Elden Ring players and ban them from playing sports.
Malcolm Reynolds, who has hacked FromSoftware games since Dark Souls 3, infiltrates worlds before killing players with offensive, practically invincible spells.
However, overwhelming power was not the problem. Equal Kotaku reported, these spells also add “illegal” items to the defensive player’s inventory for use during development only.
When the defeated player comes back to life, the Elden Ring discovers they have these illegal items and gently bans them, meaning they can only play online with other cheaters later.
Reynolds said he is forcing players living in digital exile to have opinions with FromSoftware. Telling Kotaku he wants to get caught, he calls himself the “necessary bad guy” that the developer should take as a lesson to implement better anti-cheat software.
However, despite claiming a noble cause, Reynolds uploaded Videos on YouTube about his cheating, murder, and gentle prohibition while making fun of his victims at the expense of his victims.
If Reynolds infiltrated a game, the best thing to do, according to a Reddit post by Dark Souls 3 from six years ago, is to disconnect or close the software, or commit suicide to avoid being killed by him.
No wonder Reynolds has resurfaced, his history with other FromSoftware titles and the sheer popularity of the Elden Ring.
It has been proven somewhat of a cultural phenomenon, with crazy adsa streamer Twitch chat is playing while he scans, and someone using the Nintendo Switch Ring Fit Controller to beat a boss. It even has its own candy.
