They fast as fuck. Another W for the pirates.
I really felt cheated that no one was insulted, no rants were frothed, no theories conspiracied in this nfo. All we got was relevant information and kindness.
I’m kidding obvs
To be fair it’s the exact same bypass as any other Steam game. Any steam emulator would work.
Bethesda the publisher does things differently than Bethesda the developer.
As a dev, they know their modding communities keep their games alive long, long past their expiration dates and will fuck with them as little as they possibly can - this takes them from games to household names to legends that everyone knows.
As a publisher pushing products that aren’t intended to be modded, they drink the koolaid.
I disagree about the publishing side somewhat, every now and then the publishing team hits a home run. Like I’ve been playing Ghostwire: Tokyo recently which is published by Bethesda and it’s a pretty good game, and let’s not forget Prey which was an awesome game also published by Bethesda.
So tbey do get it right sometimes.
Lol it was this “https://lemmy.zip/comment/2283511” /\ Did starfield not have denuvo drm. I thought most Bethesda games did. ", I tried to delete it but obviously not lol.
Huh, the game isn’t even out yet. 🏴☠️ stay winning, I guess.
It’s out on (paid) early access. Think that’s how they got the game files lol.
“Cracked” meaning having replaced a dll file
Exactly; this just needed an emulator like goldberg
Bethesda games usually don’t go for heavy DRM stuff (beyond the basic steam DRM), because it impairs modding (especially injection / nonofficial modding, stuff like SKSE for skyrim)
I have to applaud Bethesda for this decision, it is something that is very nice for the end user.
It really is a big move, since it likely cost them millions in early sales.
I probably would have bought it already if I couldn’t find a crack, but now I can pirate and wait for a nice sale.
I’m sure I’m not the only one.
They don’t even replace the DLL file for you! After you run the RUNE installer, you have to copy the emulator yourself
