Because it drives home what I said earlier.
He can only advocate that the publishers don't add Denuvo.
You have two instances with two very different publishers both requiring Denuvo. If it was only major publishers like Sony/Ubi/EA pushing it that would be one thing. But even whensmaller publishers like 505 are requiring it that should tell anyone how expensive and troublesome it is to publish games. The only way he could circumvent requirements would be if he decided to self publish the title. Kojima may have been around for some years and have some money but he doesn't have self publish AAA titles money.
And besides, you can be apart of an industry and recognize it needs to change and voice your concerns for it. That's how progress starts.
