So Internet is required at all times?

[FireFiend]

So I will need Internet at all times while playing because of the DRM, correct?

[Tim Timsen]

No.

[gingerbreadman]

No, denuvo does not require a constant internet connection, it has offline tokens

[look at the clown]

no

[Digby]

Huh I wonder how it will respond to me moving between deck and desktop

[RaIk0]

many people with boxed version already playing it, sadly, so no internetconnection

At least read the topic before replying… this is a denuvo specific question, which consoles do not have

[Mr Andersson]

When starting a denuvo game for the first time you need to be online. Denuvo then creates an offline "ticket" that lasts for some amount of days, and then it will require another online verification.
Exactly how many days? That's up to the publisher. The default seems to be 14 days, but some games differ from that. Until the game releases we really won't know.

It does however need to verify online every 24 hours, if it fails that, it wont accept (wont let you run the game)

Both your Deck and Desktop will have separate tokens. It works fine as long as you don't do things like repeatedly change the Proton version on Deck which makes it think you are switching it to a new machine.

This is false. I have played Denuvo games offline for at least a week.

No, you could play doom eternal offline when denuvo was on it. Its going to be the same here.

No you need to verify it every 24 hours by standard, some games have this removed after a year or so, maybe that is your case, a few select games also have other criterias, but the standard is 24 hours.

The biggest issue with denuvo, is that we allow 3rd party (that is not under any control) access to our systems and our information.
The performance hit is so abysmal low, that it wont matter for 99.9% of people.

Sorry, this is false. You need to verify it every time certain things related to your setup changes. I can say this from personal experience (I just finished Persona 5 on Steam Deck offline for a week at a time), also see:

Why do you use that, when you can just go and watch the information I provided on their actual homepage.

So... You linked this and there is no mention on what would be the default time limited for the offline token. Unless I'm somehow missing it, I'm not exactly sure why you would say its 24 hr default.

Hell, according to their marketing spew. It says that players can play offline and only need to be online to update the game or if they changed hardware recently. This actually argues against you lol.
