I do care, I usually play retro games (Drakensang, Oblivion or Dragon Age Origins are retro today lol), so when I buy good new games to have in library to play later or whatever, I usually don't pay attention to those multiple new ways to destroy games: Denuvo, empty servers, day 1 DLC, bad plots, political correctness, etc, etc, etc.

It's very helpful to have these kinds of posts warning us about those things. Thanks OP!

Dude. It's perfectly OK for people to be upset by a very intrusive software that is known to cause actual hardware failure on consumer PCs.

Not for folks ripping software at all. Because Devs need to get paid for their time.

I will still get games with this, but I still am vocal about it, because I would rather this software not be used. It doesn't stop the cracks at all.

Folks ARE allowed to speak up about issues like this.

there's nothing intrusive about it, instead of buying into reddit armchair fearmongering, do your own research

It is massively intrusive, logs all kernel level activity on your system and reports on it, and has been shown to stress hardware in a way that can cause actual failure of components.

yep, that's how i know that you're just parroting misinformation spread by crackers and pirates

The people who know more about Denuvo than anyone except the people that coded it are the crackers and the pirates.

They are also very intelligent people who are skilled at reverse-engineering programs and coding in general. You could have way worse sources of information. Like some guy named breadman on Steam forums, for example.

they also have an agenda

show me proof where that it "logs all kernel activity", i'd be amazed to see it seeing as how denuvo anti-tamper doesn't run on ring zero

also show me proof where it "stresses hardware" and causes component failure

As I said in that post with very few words, there are multiple ways to ruin games, and it's tedious to search everything, even things you don't expect or understand yet. It is easier to just read the titles, and if there is a big issue, in the first pages you will find something, or closed messages, etc.

If people read well the posts before replying, this task of look for useful information would be twice as fast.

If only.

[breadman]

it takes literally two seconds to see denuvo on the store page, far less time than to make posts about it

[boytype]

I dont feel the need to get in a mud slinging competition over Denuvo that ends up getting someone elses thread locked and results in bans RN, I am only about 2 hours from finishing leveling my rogue,

Over the last decade or so, I think people have seen enough cases where Denuvo has degraded performance of games, caused incompatibility, and been one of the things that may have contributed to the degradation of CPUs and HDDs because of overactive call protocols in certain products.

They can decide on their own what they think of it (while I start to go get my pvp gear).
