Cheating is serious problem for many online games, but equally serious is the lack of ways to get rid of the players that do not follow the rules. Unless you do something radical, like Last Oasis recently did.

Last Oasis is a massive multiplayer online survival game, in which players try to survive in the world that lacks resources and every bit of them is priceless. Even though the game premiered on Steam in March 2020 already it is struggling with the weakest part of every multiplayer game - the players.
Recently Donkey Crew, company behind Last Oasis, took a hard stand against cheaters that abuse their product and literally banned hundreds of players stating:
"We haven’t publicly addressed the issue until confirming that our efforts are starting to be successful, but we’ve been hard at work to eradicate the players who are so bad at the game they need cheats. So far, we’ve banned a triple-digit number of cheaters and continue to improve the tools against them. We want you to know that we take this issue extremely seriously and will not stop until the game is free from cheats."
While it sounds serious and the statement on Twitter also warned that they will not allow any way of appeal against the ban. However, later Donkey Crew reconsidered their decision and opened a channel for banned users to appeal, although they are sure their decisions were 100% valid in every case.
But cheating does not seem to be the only problem within Last Oasis - many users are losing interest in the game because of... the game concept itself. While the game allows users to form clans there are already "mega-clans" formed within the game, capable of overpowering any of the new settlers, so... It looks like Last Oasis could be another victim of their own players, who do not follow the rules or follow the rules and discourage new players from joining in.

Today something completely different, a curious case of a game, which might or might not be published soon. I know it doesn’t sound exciting or interesting, there are thousands of games that exist only as a list of promises and ideas, most of which will never be finished, but this one is a bit different. This one is definitely coming soon!
If you are one of the hundreds of thousands of people who played the recently published Baldur’s Gate 3, you might have missed that you are actually playing a really bad game. Well, not actually bad...
