Unlikeable asshole entity tries even harder to get people to like them. Results are mixed
Just stoooooop FUCKING T A L K I N G
Hello, fellow kids
What a fuckin’ crock.
Makes me want to buy Denuvo games even less, but I’ve already learned my lesson. Shutout to the only worthwhile Steam curator: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/26095454-Denuvo-Games/
Is this a business entity wearing the skin of a human, or a clown wearing the skin of a business?
Surely the former because at least clowns try to be funny and entertaining.
Personally, I’m okay with Denuvo and other similar DRM when it’s used for the intended purpose - to prevent launch day hype piracy. The first few weeks/months are crucial for sales, and I can understand why developers do it.
But after that, especially after the game is cracked, remove the fucking DRM, it did what it could and is now useless, and only makes the experience of legitimate customers worse.
Only Denuvo has reported that it’s better for sales, the rest of us don’t have data on that and I’m not trusting the wolf with Hen House design
Denuvo is an interesting one, as it’s both very hated, but also rather effective - in the last four years, only around 25 Denuvo games out of a hundred have been cracked. So with that, pirates can’t even rely on waiting as something you want to play might get cracked next week, or it might take years or simply never get cracked - poor Tourist Bus Simulator, nobody loves you.
So it turns in to a fairly simple math problem, though one with both variables being unknown (to me at least) - how many people who would buy the game don’t because it has Denuvo, vs how many people that would pirate the game buy it instead when they can’t.The only people who surely benefit from this mess are let’s players and streamers :P
Because as we all know, being a gamer means you can’t also be a fucking moron.
… Wait.
One experience with other people on Xbox Live voice chat can disprove that.
“Denuvo manager also stated that he slept with all the moms of their product’s detractors, and that they were ‘ezee’”
I bet he plays like it’s Call Of Duty in multiplayer games which require team cooperation.
Arrogant cunt. Fuck you and your shitty “product”.
Grifter attempting to explain his existence…
Denuvo profits off game developers fears of their game not being well received by gamers for reasons such as performance issues, bugs, or at its foundation is just a mediocre game.
I like to believe that the narrative that piracy hurt sales is only true for medicore/bad games because the average pirate is broke and they are not going to buy your game just because of denuvo and those who can afford to buy will choose not to after getting to try it.
On the other hand good games will always be commerical successful with or without denuvo.
As a gamer, I know that gamers don’t actually know a fucking thing except how to play games.
The only positive thing is that they are SUCH GREEDY FUCKS that companies often patch out the protection after release to stop paying them.
There he is.
Was looking for em
God, hard to read more than half of it, this guy’s a total idiot. He really thinks he sells a solution, fucking wake up off that dream. It was nice, you enjoyed it, now wake up, go do something else, or just take the money and retire, idk, idc.
Fuck DRM, what a shitty way of screwing up content.
What makes you think he’s an idiot as opposed to lying through his teeth?
