Would have bought so many times now but for Denuvo

[Thandius]

It's ironic: I would have bought this game and all its DLC 3 sales ago if it weren't for publishers trying to ram Denuvo and similar custumer unfriendly practices down my throat.

As it stands though, I am a grown up with self control and thus spend my money elsewhere.

have owned the title since the day it shipped (ubi only copy )

NEVER HAD A SINGLE ISSUE with Denuvo

so really your loss ..it is a fun game

also if you are referring to the 5 times activation limit .. read the EULA

that's 5 times in a 24 hour period ..you will only need to activate the game once anyway
from then on its tied to your UBI and steam account anyway

and no i do not see performance problem with denuvo in the game .. runs great with my old i 5 7600 K and a GTX 1060 6 gig vid card

[-=SOF=-WID99]

oh and also no one here on the steam forums cares if you hate denuvo

its been in many games i own .. never had an issue with it to be honest

as it has never stopped me from playing any game i wanted to play

So, my reason for posting was to give a company feedback on their product.

If you guys are happy with your product, that's great for you. And while I think that every time someone accepts these needle pricks, it encourages companies to treat their customers worse, that's just my opinion and you are free to differ from it.

However you already voted with your wallet by buying the game, so imho, you aren't exactly adding anything new to the conversation. If you disagree with me, just let my post sink to the back of the forum unanswered, hm?

and ubisoft will not read this or see it or care

they will use denuvo or any thing they can to protect a ip or product from getting ripped off

and your on a steam forum ...>> and ubisoft has left steam ..as of the summer of 2019

no new ubi games have been released on steam since then

the only reason the older games are still here .. like far cry 5 , is valve still has a digital digital licence to sell the older titles on steam

far cry 6 will not be coming to steam as well as many other new ubi games have also skipped steam

i always buy my ubi games direct .. as i can use ubi points for a discount as well as yes many many online shops other then steam sell the games at a discount deeper then steam sells it for on the day it ships

and again denuvo has never been an issue for me with many other titles , or this one to be honest

so i do not understand you post or thread other then your trying to say you hate games that yes

try to protect the dev team that worked for years to make a game from being ripped off

i can tell you now no far cry game comes out off hand ..they take years to make and produce ..heck far cry 6 has been in the works since 2016

so yes they have a right to protect work that has been done by many UBI studios to bring a game to market .... and pay all those workers that still work on the next game why one ships ..and yes it takes years to make a decent game

you have to pay for a ton of things

but gamers like you do not wanna hear the real world facts , as you have never worked in game dev jobs you only wanna play your game ..

i get that

sorry you feel that one small bit of software will inhibit your ability to enjoy a game as it was developed ?

also remember please STEAM itself was is and was always intended to be a form of DRM

so if you use steam ... your in favour of added DRM

Meanwhile, Valve was building out Steam. The storefront was initially designed to streamline the patch process for games like Counter-Strike, and also make it easier for Valve to implement anti-piracy and anti-cheat measures. Steam was built to be a DRM machine.

so if your so worried about added DRM you may as well delete your steam account

and purchase only OLD drm free games on GOG

Man that tirade of yours really doesn't mean anything. I 100% understand and agree with the concepts of DRMs and anti-piracy softwares like that, except there are 2 main problems here -
1. Once the DRM has been cracked, it is useless. It literally serves no purpose anymore as it failed at its job, and keeping it on the game means nothing. FC5 is a few years old now, it has been cracked, and Denuvo does nothing anymore.
2. You sound like a pretentious ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ by saying "I have no issues with the game, so you shouldn't either." Do a simple google search. The amount of evidence pointing toward Denuvo having an effect on gameplay and performance is staggering. Just because you don't experience issues doesn't mean others won't. That's like saying "I ate today, people shouldn't be going hungry." Get off the high horse son. There are other DRMs that exist that don't have such a reputation of affecting performance that they could have used. Or, since the game has been cracked, they could do like other developers that recognize the impact of Denuvo have done and patch it out in a later update.

tl;dr
I respect DRMs. I don't respect Denuvo. Think before you say ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Have fun never playing this game!

Denuvo is fine. Stop being paranoid.
