    @playnewworld @Steam Not sure if you guys know or not, but there's a bunch of us who can't get into the game because of an error. Started about 1 hour ago, after a steam app update. "Steam must be running to play this game. Make sure you are logged into steam, then try again."

    Hey @playnewworld , are you aware your anti-cheat software is detecting @Steam as a malicious/hack application and blocking us from getting back in because Sean is open; #NewWorld requires Steam to run. Can you please fix this so we can get back to playing?

    Oi! @steam @Steam_Support your client update has broken pretty much every game that uses @EpicGames Easy Anticheat making them not load/start. Please can you rollback or fix the update at least, whatever the quickest option.
