Is GE3 gonna have denuvo?

[hotaru251]

I know 2 had it.

I am curious if I wanna get it on steam or on PS4 (i realllllly hate denuvo..)

[playtechAqua]

Who knows, they can just put it up when the game release if they want, just have to wait and see.

[Endarion]

well the other 2 games had it right?

personaly i think it's a waste of money for the publisher since now even with denuvo most games get cracked in about a week from release but they still insist in using it

[Yak]

its not them insisting on using it...rather them not knowing about how ♥♥♥♥ Denuvo is at being DRM...it destroys performance...doesnt "secure" a product...and once that ♥♥♥♥♥♥ company dies out, any game with Denuvo will lock up since there are no servers for that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to authenticate the game with.

you should since Denuvo destroys the performance of a game and when the company dies in the future? Denuvo will lock your game since it has no servers to authenticate. Thankfully, Bamco seems to be moving away from that ♥♥♥♥♥♥ software that doesnt even prevent piracy as they claim...

i played games with denvo games before and my pc been fine with it.

the only downside using denuvo in my experience is that if the game has update, it trying to download the fullgame again

The downside is that when denuvo goes out of business, we'll have to either crack the game or hope developers remove it (Unlikely for games with an age higher than 2 years old.)

That's true, developers/publishers have to issue a patch removing denuvo. But it's an eventuality far into the future. It should be trivial though, as long as the publisher is still in business.

Near and immediate future, people will suffer a tiny performance degradtion if they are using within the install limits for their personal PC. For commerical exploitation in shady internet cafe who uses just a few licenses, they suffer more due installation limits.... The most notable of this happening is in the monster hunter world PC steam forum. Since a lot of people plays it and strange issues related to using internet cafes are discovered after probing said reluctant gamers for PC setup.

Being digital (not denuvo related) is already bad for consumers, you can't loan it out easily or re-sell them. Basically you are buying stuff that has zero resale value. (Sure you can sell your steam account but it's against ToS and eventually be banned. Then it's a liability for the buyer and you pray that the buyer don't find you for a "refund"). Even my ancient but pretty looking mug for drinking can fetch me a few bucks if I sell it. Heh. Even oldcardboard boxes can be sold for a few cents to a recycler :)

On topic:
Doesn't Steam show on the games store-page if it has Denuvo as a Third Party DRM?
I don't see anthing like that for GE3 so it probably doesn't use it, you should probly still wait until a few days after Release to be sure (which also has the advatage that you'll know if the port has different issues again, BNE is not exactly known for great PC-Versions after all).

Vesperia came out from Namco a few weeks ago and doesn’t have Denuvo. Possible this wont either.

[DRUNK_CANADIAN]

Knowing BamCo even itf it doesnt it will have some other cancerous DRM

Didn't seem to be the case with ToV.
I was surprised too, but since the few games ago BNE seems to have noticed their DRM policy caused them more trouble than what it's worth (which according to a EU-study is a negative number anyway).

[Ralen]

Probably. Bandai Namco uses denuvo on most of its games, as do many of the major third party publishers.

Do I care? Nope. Doesn’t impact my performance and I’m not changing my hardware every other day where it would be an issue.

No. Denuvo will never go out of business. Most PC gamers simply do not care about it to make a difference.

Well I haven't kept track for the more recent releases but from the sounds of it, they don't have Denovo (correct me if I'm wrong) so in that regard, the same will be for GE3 in not having any. Though in general I fined that a lot of companies are using Denovo less and less as of late.
