Can’t imagine a significant number of users ever accepting this solution, there’s too much hassle involved.

Users who are not attempting world record attempts or playing tournaments where money or fame is on the line.. in other words.. 99.99% of the user base will have no incentive to bother with webcam hand recording anti-cheat systems.

They will just move onto another less bothersome game that doesn’t require it, and that game will eat the webcam-required always recording game's market share.

There will always be servers for the players that don’t care about hackers to play on.

For the ones that are sick of having their games ruined by hackers they’ll angle their webcam down at their hands (or use the app on their smartphone) and join the server that supports it.
