whether or not you play this game is irrelevant to anyone.

looks like a man with good standards

They should remove it soon. They removed it from both RE2 and RE3 remakes after a while.

Denuvo prevents games from being pirated on release, so impatient people who would pirate the game on release are "forced" to buy the game instead.

They won't remove it anytime soon. DLC is still coming.

The game was cracked many months ago, so what is the purpose of Denuvo at this point? Oh yea, NOTHING.

That's not true? RE8 was cracked like a few weeks after launch. In case of RE2 Capcom even leaked the DRM-less .exe for the game in 1.02. Wanna know what happened? Game was insta-cracked and then Capcom updated RE2 to include Denuvo again. So pirates played for free and had the better experience. RE8 not only had Denuvo on launch, but also a second anti-tamper that caused many issues. Denuvo doesn't protect sales and it doesn't help anyone. It's a horrible piece of tech that has no use other than ensure investors that sales are "protected" during the time where it matters. Ignoring that people who pirate games aren't a lost sale anyway, since A. the majority of them never buy SP games and B. those people tend to be well stocked on games, to them waiting a few weeks doesn't matter. So in reality Capcom and other companies are throwing paying customers under the bus, so they can get the few percent of pirates who are impatient. Ignoring the fact some real customers then won't buy because of Denuvo. Sounds like a swell business plan, right? I'm personally looking semi-forward to RE4 this year, but with Capcom's track record there's a 0% chance I'm buying any of their games at launch now. Way better off waiting 4-6 months and paying $17 for a key, once the game's fixed and is close to having Denuvo removed.

If it wasn't for that certain group you'd all still be playing a version of the game with bad stuttering and massive fps drops, they only bothered to address the issue when they got exposed by that 'group'

It's sad to see this game on 'overwhelming positive' when consumers were treated this way

Almost as if the majority of people who buy games these days don't care.

RE8 release date: 6 May, 2021
Empress crack release date: 9, Jul 2021
That was over 2 months.

I don't know the story behind RE2's crack status so I can't comment on that.

As you said, the issues weren't related to Denuvo, but people like blaming it for no apparent reason just because.

Denuvo not protecting sales is just a excuse used by people who like to bash Denuvo.
It's been years since Denuvo was first used. You can bet that companies have done their own research since they keep spending a significant amount of money in order to have it in their games.

People who pirate games are a lost sale anyway ==> This lame excuse is being recycled over and over, without taking into account the simple fact that there are impatient gamers would buy the game on release if no cracked version is available.

Denuvo haters are a vocal minority, and "Real" customers do not care about Denuvo, since Denuvo's performance impact is minimal when implemented properly. The evicence is that the game has an overwhermingly positive score, even with the performance issues caused by Capcom's DRM, which is not related to Denuvo at all.

As if the problems are related to Denuvo...

The game having an overwhelmingly positive score means one and only thing: You are making a big fuss out of it while most people are enjoying the game.

The empress crack only stopped the poorly implemented Capcom DRM checks. Which was causing the issues.

Denuvo is still in game.
