Denuvo? DRM? Adware?

[DRUNK_CANADIAN]

Anything in the game's files?

[God of Time]

afaik Denuvo isnt in Arise. Steam itself is technically a DRM, and idk why there would be adware.

Thanks for the reply honestly you would be surprised what developers often include in games these days.

Stuff like Kerbal Space Program was literally datamining its end users with adware...it was a known thing but people looked the other way

I just don't like to be the average braindead person :)

Jokes aside, I'm just against anti-consumer practices.
As for red-shell, after the upcoming EOS crap which can be blocked through tampering with the host file, I've learnt that you can do the same with red-shell as well:

I don't own/run games with that crap anymore, but better safe than sorry.

If you want to block game tracking, check out this HOSTS list: https://github.com/KodoPengin/GameIndustry-hosts-Template
Plug it into something like Pi-hole, or just your system's hosts. Of course it's ridiculous we need something like this.

Appreciated, thank you.
