Denuvo AND Epic Games? Just how many anti-consumer practices do you need, SEGA?

[Rings]

It's bad enough the game uses Denuvo. But why oh why must it install Epic Games, too? We want less of this, not more.

Straight facts. They are invasive.

This is what makes me worried for future sega games.

Gamers never learn. Games companies are always trying to screw you over. Stop buying games at launch. It's literally the only way these scummy practices will stop.

if game companies were always trying to screw us over there wouldn't be much of a video game department. Making a stand against evil corporate acts is necessary to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Probably seems it's better to add anti-drm pfp since most your post that I have read are anti-drm things.

For EOS I don't enjoy reading the same excuse -privacy- for 9999th times when most users here 99% using Google, discord, reddit, Twitter, Fb , ig, YouTube but somehow epic is bad lol.

Chinese bad? Yeah let's talk about others governments are clean and didn't do something bad, besides FPI can hack any computers without any warrant but somehow when china is using the same approach its evil bla BLA BLA.

Hmm Gmail that beings used for steam registration can be used as spyware under governments pressure.

There isn't such as -privacy-on internet.

EA or Activision Blizzard try to literally steal all of your money and crap out the same game on repeat every year, but Sega asking you to use the Epic Game Store is just too far apparently.

Konami locked Kojima's staff in their headquarters, while disconnecting them from the outside world and monitoring them constantly to make sure they were working on mgs5.

Sega locked Arin in a room to 100% Sonic 06

While SEGA is bad, the statement "is literally the worst" has been used too much that it has just about lost all meaning.

Edit: Thinking about it, it's really sad that among gaming companies, being the worst is such a hard fought crown to obtain.

It is (or will soon be) DRM-free on skidrow

Actually, Epic Games is an American company, headquartered in North Carolina.

However, it gained a lot of distrust since its partial acquisition by behemoth Chinese conglomerate Tencent (that now holds a 40% share) which was accompanied by a small exodus of key people. The majority shareholder is still its founder, Tim Sweeney, whom not everyone is a fan of either, to put it mildly.

40% is close to half witch may effect a lot of decisions, and Epic have "Cross play" services and API as free which give them a lot of players data.

Last I looked Denuvo wasn't even listed on the Store Page which pleased me a lot. Come launch they decided to add it, a ♥♥♥♥ move for sure. I have an Epic Games Account which I've been using since 2018 so tbh that doesn't really bother me that much, that being said I do find it strange as well as stupid why Steam users are forced to use it here. There should be a means to stop it popping up permanently so it stops pestering you everytime you launch the game.

They also didn't mention the requirement of Epic until after they included a disclaimer about Denuvo.. Which happened after the game launched. They literally submitted a denuvo-free version of the game for steam review so that they can hide its inclusion until after release. That is straight up evil.
