Just ignore all games that have Denuvo. It's actually working I don't see much good games with denuvo lately.
As far as I can tell, Doom the Dark Ages has it, and many reviews are quite good. I don't know if they're good enough to convince me to install it though. Maybe I'll wait until they remove it months or years later.
Base or premium?

Ouch
That's before sales tax as well (5%-15% province-dependent)
