Avoid Because of Kernal Level Anti-Cheat (nProtect Gameguard)
The truth is, this game's anti-cheat, Nprotect Gameguard, is the cheapest and most unsafe rootkit anti-cheat on the market.
Since it's kernal level the anti-cheat has kernal access to your PC, meaning it can go through all your files and control hardware. Some reported that even after uninstalling their games, people still can't get rid of the anti-cheat as it lurks in your PC.

The decision behind using this anti-cheat is because, the developers don't want cheaters to steal microtransactions like they did in the first game. Which is absolutely fair, but they have chosen the wrong anti-cheat.
It doesn't even make sense for a PVE Game to have such a strong rootkit anti-cheat that gives it access to your entire PC.
To protect their profits, the developers have chosen an anti-cheat that put players at risk.
Many people have been turned away from this game, due to their decision.
I hope the developers read this and consider using one of the popular anti-cheats like EAC, at least that anti-cheat has a good reputation unlike nProtect Gameguard.
