I'm asking to please allow hyper-v/microsoft HV hypervisor to work there are games like Pavlov VR that do have EAC and work perfectly fine with Microsoft Hv I'm asking that you allow this as it will make it easier for linux/vm users to play the game

To address Tupper's comment on the developer stream directly ( https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2750638358?t=01h31m43s >"...or lessen the security capabilities of eac on virtual machines which we also cannot do" )
the current method to play on
any
virtual machine solution is to spoof many devices in the system to appear as real hardware via hacks and patches. This is not a "security" thing VMs get wrong, this is simply necessary evasion when an application is trying to block the execution in virtual machines. I am still very much interested in a direct addressing of whether or not VRC can simply no longer try to detect and block VMs.r2f2
It's blocked on all platforms and requires settings that hinder performance to work at all now. It works now by tricking EAC into thinking it's not a VM by disabling all hw accel with the hypervisor extension disabled.
