I don’t want to spark another XIM debate. I think most of us have a pretty similar opinion, even if different reasoning for it.
Anywho, I saw this comment saying Xbox has a dedicated API to detect XIM specifically, and just refuse to implement it, but couldn’t find much about it. I’ll try to keep looking, but I was wondering if anyone else has heard about this.
This is pulled out from an article on Windows Central. Their claim seems a little bit strong. I don’t see how Microsoft would benefit from people XIMming. Game developers and publishers? Sure. Console makers tho? Idk man, they stand more to lose. Anyways, here’s the link https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/as-microsoft-blocks-xbox-fighting-game-and-disability-accessories-xim-cheaters-will-escape-the-ban
“As-of-yet unknown reason” aka they dont wanna lose even more players by losing the higher ranking players lol
