    I wouldn't bother logging in anymore if they did that. Huge pain in the ass.

    One time password is a whole lot less a pain in the ass which s what a compromised account is. Accounts secured by just a password are net entirely secure, two factor authentication is neither inconvenient, nor a pain. It's also very effective at protecting your account.

    That's why there are hardware keys like the one I have used sinc the ARR launch.

    As for running the app in an android emulator, I've not seen anyone running an Android emulator alongside a major cgame, running an app within the emulation and dynamicall requesting a new code from the app and automatically copy/pasting it into the game. I'm not saying it's impossible, but there are challenges. I don't believe is trivial to do.

    Ok. Do you expect the company to send those out for free to every player that needs, no matter how long they intend to stick with the game? Do you expect players to wait a week or however long it takes to ship (presumably longer depending on country/continent) after purchasing the game to actually receive these items?

    If there's one thing you learn after spending any considerably bit of time online, it's that botters always find a workaround. Like fighting any hacker, or counterfeiter, spies, etc. That's just how these things work. One side develops a countermeasure, the other makes it obsolete. The best thing to remember is not to inconvenience everyone for a brief advantage over the problem.
