I have no idea if the gamers installing it are "unaware" (I never played such a game), however it's still a shitty practice. The average Joe has no idea what the hell a rootkit is and it's predatory to exploit this. Also, no game should install rootkits. For the love of god, it's a videogame.

No game is installing rootkits, you guys just keep misusing the term, as I've attempted to explain like five fucking times in this thread.

The average joe clearly doesn't understand what a rootkit is, as you've well established.
