Denuvo 1 machine activation limit

[rodrikes]

What does this actually mean? If I ever change my hardware to the point where Denuvo no longer recognizes it; i'm boned?

If I ever want to play it on a different pc, I'm boned?

If this is the case i will not be buying the game.

Edit: they just changed it on the steam store. It literally said that it had a 1 machine activation limit. Think about this before pre-ordering the game.

I think it would be linked with steam account.

Yeah, since I'm buying it on my steam account. That's what Steam's DRM does. I'm talking about Denuvo here.

That's exactly what I was thinking, hence this thread :)

That means I'm cancelling my plans to buy this game, sadly. Good job, 505. See you in a year or something, when this limitations will not be a case.

It'll be another beautiful case where pirates get a better experience than people who actually buy the game.

To be clear; not advocating for piracy, just stating a fact.

That's literally how Steam's DRM works. Nothing changes on that front.

We're talking about Denuvo here.

Lol and now I'm not seing 1 machine activation limit warning, only regular "just Denuvo" (still not buying, thanks)

[rodrikes]

yeah well spotted.

For those who missed it; it literally said the game had a 1-machine activation limit through Denuvo. They ninja-edited it out without giving any statements on here.

Hi - Little update from our side. The 1 machine activation limit was a store listing error and has now been corrected.

May we know what the activation limit will be?

[rodrikes]

Because a poor implementation of Denuvo, including insanely low activation limits, can lead to severely poor user experiences. A clarification would be great :)

If there is one it might be 3-5 different machines PER DAY limit as most other games that have this limit use it.

Probably, yeah. But it could be a listing error on the grounds that they weren't supposed to reveal it yet (while still having a 1 machine limit). Without clarification we can't really be sure.
