Stop complaining about always ONLINE and Denuvo

[Superman]

Really... even poor countries in these days has very good internet. I read reviews and 50% negatives reviews are about always online and Denuvo thing. And people knew before buying this game that its always online. Why people buy this game and then saying that they dident know that and now they give negative review becuase it asks always online????

First, pirates who are playing Hitman 2 are not able to play ghost mode, are not able to play different missions, not able to earn stats, ratings, ranks which means that pirates can only complete single-player mission kil killing the main target but nothing else. I say it is the best anti-crack system i ever seen because other games that has been cracked pirates are able to play 100% of the game but with Hitman 2016 and 2 they get only 50% content.
Second, Denuvo does not take away your frame rate. People claim that if game dident have Denuvo then frame rate would be 60fps but thanks to Denuvo they get only 20 frame rate. This is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Hitman (with Denuvo): Avg FPS – 71.6
Hitman (without DRM): Avg FPS – 72

Abzu(with DRM): Min FPS – 89, Max FPS – 112, Avg FPS – 101
Abzu(without DRM): Min FPS – 90, Max FPS – 113, Avg FPS – 101

Agents Of Mayhem(with DRM): Avg FPS – 51, Min FPS 41
Agents Of Mayhem(without DRM): Avg FPS – 51, Min FPS 41

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3(with DRM): Avg FPS – 71, Min FPS – 47
Sniper Ghost Warrior 3(without DRM): Avg FPS – 75, Min FPS – 44

With Hitman games, DENUVO does not effect Hitman frame rate, only 0.4 frame rate.

I know friend(steam) who was playing Hitman 2 and he said he gives a positive review about this game, runs well, game is good and fun... and when i told him that this game has Denuvo then after that he suddenly changed his mind and started to talk how badly this game now runs and how everything is so bad.

People should review game, not giving negative review because this game is anti-piracy. People work hard to make game and you tell people to steal developers salary and give them nothing. Its sad world.

No one here was even complaining about the timebomb or the Alway-Online system for a while now.

well in review section people even crying that they got free game and now they found it its just prelouge and not full game.

Like:
"FREE VERSION IS A DEMO AND SHOULD BE MARKED AS SUCH.

Of course I wasn't expecting a free game, but if I see free I install it. It lets you play the prologue mission then tells you to buy it. It was impossible to figure out that was the case before installing."


-------

"HITMAN™ 2" is/was free. (WARNING. MISLEADING/FALSE MARKETING.)
I downloaded it, only to realize that it is basically just a launcher and I only have access to the prologue.
The name of the game was not "HITMAN™ 2 DEMO" or "HITMAN™ 2 Prologue" or "HITMAN™ 2 Launcher".


-------------

"Don't be fooled by the "FREE" part of this game. It's basically the 2 tutorial missions where they tell you what/how/where. No freedom, no chance of exploring the game. It's a very short demo"


And almost another 50% reviews are about demo but not game. They play demo and give negative review because it dident give full game or more levels.
Crazy uh? I give movie negative review because i saw movie trailer and they dident give me free movie.

People IQ goes lower and lower. Sad world.

Tell me about your good internet next time dev servers fail and you can't access the game, or in 10 years when you'd want to remember that one good game and there's no way to properly play it cause servers are dead.

And then applaud how devs attempts to punish pirates do not affect pirates at all and only make your enjoyment harder.

[Bashfluff]

It's not about the reliability of your connection, but the developers. Hitman's servers were notoriously spotty, and Hitman 2 isn't looking much better on that front. Not to mention, it's the principle. People paid for the game, they should have the ability to play it whenever they want to. Restricting content to people with an online connection is a way of maintaing ownership of something that they've already sold.

Games should be products, not things that you rent from a publisher to use under the conditions they want with restrictions due to their own whims. I am able to separate the art from the artist in this case. It's a good game, so I bought it. Boycots are not effective in this industry. Complaining is, so I bought the game and complained.

Where were you for like last 5-10 years?
That's PC gaming since steam started to be serious thing.
Only instance when you buy the product is on console, on PC you pretty much buy subscription/rent a game (sauce: TOS).

Also, some people go way overboard with "you have no access/ability to play" stuff. Even when servers are down, you can still play the game. Afraid of not getting some hard unlock? Just do save and come back later. After all, it is a game that is all about replay value, right?

Some make this always online like they never have seen Blizz game like Diablo 3. Now that's a case where you really can't play the game at all when servers are down.

It's about principle, but a certain kind of person doesn't understand these things until it's too late, and then they expect someone else to come along and clean up the mess. I, for one, do not enjoy being treated like a criminal for making a lawful purchase, but I guess for some people being felt up by the TSA and otherwise having your privacy invaded and your inherent human dignity violated is as close as they get to feeling another human's touch.

You know that game will save your rewards and stats when you offline and when you come back online then you get all the stats?
When they gonna shut down servers, then they will remove offline mode as well. 2016 they said that.
After all, you are playing online game. Online game needs internet.

You understand that DRM gave no effect to FPS and you still talk ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥? Just like Trump. You give clear fact and evidence and you still keep saying crap.
Its called poor port. Some games has amazing graphic and runs like 100fps and yet some games has bad graphic and runs very bad. And both of games has DRM.

So you keep ignoring link i gave? Wow... you trust modded game more than pure facts and reviewers. WOW. Also they did test Hitman with and without DRM and it showed no difference. But Americans and Australians (which are same) has low IQ. I dont speak with low IQ persons
