The wait continues…

    The DRM is so stupid - now in the era of streaming you can get literally anything webripped day1.

    DRM is obsolete (and it never really wasn’t tbh).

      its the attempt that matters more to investors than the pirates. its why a shit ton of games have denuvo, evem if the version of denuvo they utilized is cracked already or not. its not there for the end user, its there for the investors to show they are at least attempting to fight off piracy.

        Denuvo is actually very effective relatively speaking. Several popular games that use it have never been cracked. They haven’t made it impossible, just sufficiently difficult and tedious that no one wants to bother.

          some aren’t cracked because theres like only one person actually doing it, and said person wont crack anime games because she hates anime.

        Isn’t DRM in games working though. Denuvo only being cracked by one person, to me it sounds like a win for the corporations.

          it’s working in the sense that i slows it down. However how denuvo works is that there are usually are generations of denuvo that get cracked, so once one gets cracked in a generation, theres a handful that will be cracked with it. if a company is using an older generation of denuvo, you may typically see day 1 cracks, which ultimately means the company paid denuvo for nothing, but the point is, denuvo wasn’t meant to stop piracy first, it was meant to appease investors that require denuvo to be implemented.
