Why are we ADDING denuvo a year after release? How does this make any sense.

[JonJaded]

Seriously, this is ridiculous. This is not okay.

I'm not gonna reinstall but if that's true that's insanely dumb and anti-consumer of them to add in a year after release when many wouldn't have bought it with it, especially at full price.

Doesn't say anything about it on the Store page. Loads of games have it, but it does seem kinda weird to add it after most of the game's sales have already happen.

If you scroll down to the bottom, you'll see:

"Modified – Snowfall/Binaries/Win64/GWT.exe (+263.42 MiB)"

Which quadruples the total of the executable size, a hard indicator of the addition. They also aren't obligated to change their store page because of it either.

Im not anti d, I own DEATHLOOP and Forespoken as of recently but it doesn't feel like my game especially if I can get locked out at any point. Definetly a huge dissapointment.

So you dont actually know they added denuvo, youre just guessing?

its 100% denuvo.
and it baffles me why they added it with the release of a FREE content update(i seen other devs do it with the release of paid dlc). what a waste of $$ a year after release.

Executable size is a 100% sign of addition of denuvo. It's not a "well maybe." It's quite literally a 4 times increase in one update.

But if you want certain proof, since they won't show it on their steam page, I'll get you some.

Is this why I'm suddenly getting a Snowfall fatal error today and can't play the game anymore?

[Mr. No_Effs_Given]

Oh no, Denuvo strikes again. Yeah OP, I would understand if it was a brand new release, but this game is kinda "old" already.

What the hell. I bought this game years back and I feel like I deserve a refund after this betrayal. Updating my review.

[Mois]

Not touching any Denuvo games.

It just doesn't make sense... Why would a publisher OPT to add drm a year after it's release. That's just money burned that doesn't need to be. It sort of makes sense at the beginning of a release if you subscribe to the pirate jargon (I don't believe it, but a lot of people do) but why opt for a protection subscription a year after, and not mention anything about it... It's just so odd.

Fantastic! now who bought the game because didn't have Denuvo getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥ because the company choose after one year to put in the game.
Well! Enjoy LONG loading time and stuttering from now ON!

Flipped review to negative, Tango Gameworks not seeing a cent from me ever again if this is not reverted.
