It’s probably unlikely to happwn soon but in that case the only right answer is piracy once they found a way around this shit again!

I think we’re down to only 1, maybe 2 people that can crack Denuovo. One of them is a raging psychopath lol

I think in the end Denuovo is going to win. :(

Honestly, good. It’s made devs want to release on PC again.

It’s now the price of GPUs that’s really holding it back.

Dev’s don’t want Denuovo. Publishers or more specifically Investors want Denuovo cause they don’t understand or care what the end users want or how it negatively impacts them to have intrusive DRM. On their little power point, it says Denuovo saves them money, and that makes them happy. Even when that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Nah… in the end, indie developers and people who don’t want to blow 70+ on an unfinished poorly optimized pile of shit with Denuvo icing will win.

The price of this game makes it one you should definitely be a patient gamer on. Not only will you save a ton of money but it’ll probably be Denuvo free eventually too.

seems like a great way to punish honest people every time they try to play your game and mildly inconvenience pirates for about a week

Fwiw, Denuvo is actually really hard to crack. There’s like one well-known person who is capable and she’s incredibly unlikeable. Agreeable sentiment though; Denuvo sucks and harms legitimate consumers (arguably more than it inconveniences pirates).

If one person can crack it and is willing to distribute it then everyone can get a cracked copy. Such is the nature of the internet.

I really doubt pirates or even any average person are going to worry about the beliefs of the person cracking the game.

Eh that’s not really true. When she was working on Hogwarts Legacy that’s when her really crazy side showed and she got a massive cult following as a result.
