Can you remove Denuvo already? I would like to buy the game...
edit:
I just found out CAPCOM decided to join the bandwagon of "we don't want to sell our things in Russia", so I take everything back.
No longer interested in buying this game.

Just saying, don't have high hopes for Denuvo being removed, it probably won't be. So, again, it's your choice, so either buy and enjoy, or just don't play ever.

It was removed from RE:VII and RE:2 Remake, so I don't see why they shouldn't remove from this as well...

Again, don't have high hopes. But it could soon.

Because Denuvo in the past was linked to bad performance. Hell RE8 probably would run better without it, but if an older machine like mine can run it while looking fantastic then I would imagine most comps would as well.

The fact of the matter is that you don't have a good reason to not want Denuvo. Your reasoning is effectively, "I don't want Denuvo because I don't want Denuvo on my computer"

That's not a reason, you just don't want to be wrong.

The only thing Denuvo in RE8 hurts is pirates.

The game has been available for illegitimate consumption for a while now: If they wanted to pirate it, they could do just that right now so have a bit of common sense, please. You want reasons to not support Denuvo that doesn't include piracy? I'll get you some.

Apathy is a perfectly normal reaction. Most people don't care until something happens to them. Here it is derping out in front of a 60k audience.[clips.twitch.tv]:clickbutton:

You can have the best computer and the most stable connection, you can't do anything about Denuvo if the problem is on their side. I used to not care too but a customer's trust is hard won and easily lost. It only needs to happen once to make a player fervently anti-Denuvo. In return for the resources and time the developer has to waste on its implementation, you get Unplayable games, performance issues and incompatibilities.

There are also a few trust issues regarding the company making the solution and its parent which I won't delve into here but you can get the details in this post if you're interested in boring yourself to death.

All of this for only a hypothetical benefit against piracy. Most publishers do not use Denuvo (only 23 games last year) because in seven years, they haven't been able to prove their claim that delaying piracy helps selling more games. By all means, developers have every right attempting to curb piracy, but not when the expected standards of quality have yet to be met for paying customers. That obsession with non-paying customers is getting counter-productive.

The DRM issue has been fixed and Village has shown to have same performance, if not better than cracked version since it has been patched. Plenty of videos illustrating this.

You didnt want to buy the game anyway. Just an excuse to justify pirating game.

OP has like 5 times your games, a 16 hours/day average playtime on Steam alone and you're accusing them of not wanting to support the gaming industry... Any windows left in that glass house of yours? They are literally bulletproof to your ridiculous accusations. :lunar2019crylaughingpig:

When did I say they dont want to support game industry? I was only replying about Village. :steamfacepalm:

Am I supposed to be impressed that OP barely leaves their house? Lmfao.

Besides. As i have stated and many others have illustrated. Performance in both cracked and patched version of Village has no performance difference.

So there should be no reason to stop anyone from playing if they like the game and want to try it. using Denuvo is an excuse and argument is so old now.

Dude, you've just blatantly accused OP of piracy. And then doubled-down by badmouthing him. Sheesh!

Better I don't tell him how I gift 3 copies of 40€ games paid full price to friends I want to play with, and then we play one time and never again (looking at you, GTFO).

You know, if Village's DRM hampered performance still I would understand. I mean. If OP made thread within 2 months of games release I'd probably agree the way the game ran for people.

Since July, game has been patched and runs fine. It was also Capcom's own DRM which caused issues. Denuvo did nothing to performance.

So to have a gripe over Denuvo still when game runs the same as cracked version is a flawed argument. Even saying Denuvo takes up more space is dumb. What, your system cant afford an extra 150MB of space. Come on now.

You will buy a game made by ex-Overkill employees who lied over and over to players about Payday 2. Who than go on to make that same game again except cops are now aliens but wont buy Village? I guess it makes sense now.

No, I don't know. I see you've attacked a person with groundless accusation out of the blue. And instead of making an appology, you are switching topic like nothing happened, and keep pushing people. Do they pay you for attacking people on the internet like that?

Considering what it does to performance and animations in this game... Yes.

The last gen console versions have better animation than this version and that's just sad.

I'd buy this in a heartbeat if they fixed it or removed denuvo which would fix it but until then I can play it at 4k60 on my series x with no issues

Attacked who? I cant comment saying Denuvo has no affect on Village? Just because you dont agree its an attack because you dont like what I have to say? Give me a break. :steamfacepalm:
