Time to Remove Denuvo.
Denuvo has been bypassed, and no longer serves any purpose on this game. So it's time to remove Denuvo and stop punishing legitimate users with it.

Runs pretty damn well for a Denuvo title

I still don't know why Denuvo is a thing, it doesn't work, it never has. The models that show Denuvo having a "Positive effect on revenue" are flawed, because they were never normalized against the growth of the industry. (Intentionally by Denuvo PR no doubt.

The anti-gun lobby makes the same flawed argument with the AWB, claiming it "Saved Lives" Because homicides went down after the AWB, ignoring the fact that, even with the massive Homicide surge in the 90's, rates were trending downwards both in America and Globally.

Nah, ♥♥♥♥ pirates. We have the problems we do because people are scummy thieves that don't want to pay. And so the rest of us suffer for it.

The game is $60 and has reviews up and Steam has a 2 hour refund window in case it doesn't work out. You pirate ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ have zero moral ground to stand on other than being a dirtbag.

denuvo needs to be annoying enough for people who could afford game but wouldn't buy and it basically does dat. How much it translate to money who knows but if i doubt some kids in forums will do better estimate is it worth it vs publishers who actually making money

Piracy's effect on profits and revenue is an imaginary thing. This was the entire cornerstone of Steam. "Piracy isn't a pricing issue, it's a service issue." - Glabe Noodle. If people are stealing your game (And piracy is theft) in significant numbers, it's a certainty that there's an underlying issue wholly separate from the question of finances.

Anyone with such little impulse control to the point that they would steal the game, if not for the 3 or 4 days Denuvo stops cracks from appearing, do not have the impulse control to figure out the process that would be involved in stealing the game.

The best DRM is to make a game people want to pay for. Denuvo always indicates to me that developers have no confidence in their product to inspire people to reward them. You literally can't argue with me than in an age where people will pay $170 to watch the same capeshit on <Entertainmentgiant>+ they wouldn't shell $60 for a great game?

Denuvo only works for initial launch window of 1 week give or take.

The game runs quite well, it's not denuvo it's your potato you call a pc....:accat:

I wonder what the cost savings would be if Denuvo wasn’t a thing.

The argument isn't that it's slowing OP's PC down, the argument is that it's malicious software they don't want on their PC. Which is exactly what denuvo is.

It is an extra layer of software that is now unnecessary.
