Denuvo...

[SecondLeaseGamer]

to hell with this.

[Solo]

bye. we going to support our loved franchise (so maybe more games come) you wont pirate it.

[Sir Pencil]

i'll buy it as soon as Denuvo is removed

[Yílõng Má]

Bought the game few days ago, finished playing the demo just no. Holy ♥♥♥♥ it was good!!!

Even if they put 100 Devunos, Denovus, or Denovos, I will still play.

Happy for the ones that buy it, but honestly I can understand where the ones that do not like Denuvo are coming from. and yes I do own some with it. But extra protection that does not really work is annoying to some. leave them to it and let everyone enjoy what they want. Oh and Jean the pirate argument does not really work because they always find a way around it. Not like it effects me I buy what I want to play. Have a good day everyone.

The protection work. For niche (SO2 is kinda niche) games its either denuvo on PC or console only release, because most people going to piracy it. And I want to play it 4k@120fps on my PC. Its not Witcher 3, that everyone just buy.

Want to have PC dark times again (when 80% x360/ps3 games werent on pc)?

Compared to having Denuvo in it, period? Sure. I'd take a Denuvo free PC market. Pirates have, and will, figure it out (again). In the meantime, if those people really wanted to, they will just emulate the Switch version with added perks, like 60fps and higher resolution to just match the PC version.

I will pick it up when/if Denuvo is taken out. If the company would rather spend the money on something that is only an inconvenience to us (such as the performance rate and when Denuvo servers go offline), then I will not touch the product. Simple as.

There's no way around it except licking Empress' butthole and hope that she cracks it.

Read my comment above. Why every publishers is pushing Denuvo because currently filthy pirates are at Empress' mercy.

If Empress doesn't want to crack it, then that game can't be pirated forever (at least until another Empress emerges, but no one knows when would that happen).

[Stephen White]

Denuvo does what it's supposed to, no DRM is meant to protect a game forever, just inconvenience pirates long enough that the people on the fence about buying a game buy it rather than pirate it, and if it didn't serve that purpose it wouldn't be used.

Would I prefer all games be DRM free? Yep you bet. Will I ♥♥♥♥♥ and moan when a game has DRM? Nope, because that does nothing. Companies will continue to use DRM, just be glad they aren't still doing it like in the bad old days. "Please enter word 32 of page 126 of the included booklet." Or even better, the dreaded dongle that connects between your GPU and your monitor and if it's not there the game will not display. That was a fun one.

Simply complain all you want, you not buying the game doesn't out weigh all the people who will end up buying the game that would have pirated it otherwise.

[Spoonardo]

All that people like the OP are doing is depriving themselves of a great game. Nobody cares if you like Denuvo or not. Enjoy your mediocrity and need to announce things to a world that could care less...

Except almost none of the Denuvo games are cracked anymore, for several years in fact. Only a few high profile titles are by a single person, so the protection definitely works. It also protects updated versions (bug fixes, optimizations, new content, etc.) as most of the time they have to be re-cracked.

The bigger issue is the piracy woes of the Switch which has this game, too...

As for Denuvo, itself, as a consumer I couldn't really be bothered since it has no negatives on me. I really don't mind if developers protect their financial interests and no inconvenience to me.
