I'll tell you a secret) nowadays ALMOST all corporations regardless of what they make business into wanna strongarm the consumer, for quick example look up denuvo and baldurs gate, if product is good then people will buy and denuvo won't be needed

GOG has shown that drms are never needed. More often than not, denuvo causes issues to the player, and gets bypassed by a pirate easily. It is simply there because gamedev companies think they get something out of it, when in reality they don't.

Denuvo isn't easily bypassed, unfortunately. I think there's still only like two people cracking Denuvo and one of them is batshit insane.

Probably referring to Empress

[-] lemann@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Only Empress left now I think, the other one who cracked sports games called it quits, or so i've heard

[-] Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Empress, right? I've seen some things from her (if Empress indeed is a chick) that I thought really couldn't be meant seriously.

[-] Mnemnosyne@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah. I don't even know that much about the whole thing, just what I learned when going to look for a game a while back, and even from that little it was like, wtf is with this person?

Never had an issue pirating a denuvo game.
