I don't think it can be considered malware unless its doing something malicious that you don't expect. I don't want or need it on my system, but people who want to play these multiplayer games have a valid use-case and can make that decision themselves.

Of course, you may have just intended to snarky and I'm just being tedious.

It is literal rootkit, what do you mean nt a malware?

but people who want to play these multiplayer games have a valid use-case and can make that decision themselves.

They can't in most of cases. For them it's either installing or not playing.
