Dark Star received positive reception from video game critics.

gollark: Also, if you play it in safe mode i.e. don't launch the driver on boot the game will apparently refuse to run until you reboot.
gollark: Lots of games do the kernel driver thing, but they're venturing into new areas of malware-like "anticheat" by making it run constantly.

gollark: As in, kernel driver thingy running all the time even with the game closed.
gollark: I've heard that Valorant has a *really* intrusive anticheat system.
