It just takes a little bit longer to crack.

Nothing of value was lost

they already used it with god eater 2 i hope other developers don't use it

I hope you like toobie locked down with this shit.

/thread

Poorfags can't afford a fucking 1060and a decent rig anyways.
Entitled fucks that pirate even if they have cash to buy will miss out, so what's the problem?

>CPY cracked Resurrectionbut not GE2
>meanwhile they've cracked 2 Ubishit games in a row

I just want to complete the fucking story

Denuvo is already dead

eat gas

Fuck u i don't want to be stuck only playing shitty pew pew fps only i need my jrpg fix man

oh no someone think of the pirates!

Buy the games you like, user.

why does everyone hate denuvo?

serious question

>start using Denuvo when it's getting cracked left and right

It had bugs and stuff, dunno about now.
Said bugs reduced performance and sometimes screwed legit users.
On the pirate side, ofc it is harder to crack apparently, so much harder that groups mostly don't bother unless people is really desperate for shit.

From what I can tell it appears to be a FUD campaign. I have yet to find a legitimate reason. Maybe it's there, but I don't know what it is. Can't find it.

Denuvo is, for some reason, one of the most shilled pieces of software in Sup Forums ever.
Although no one really cared, obese virgins force threads about a DRM for no reason at all.
You won't find any thread about someone mad at Denuvo, all you find are threads saying
>HAHA U MAD

At first it made sense if you were a shitposter since it wasn't getting cracked, but now it's only a matter of a few weeks for a Denuvo game to get cracked, and that's without a 64-byte compiler, which would make cracking it a very simple process.
On top of that, no Denuvo game has remarkable sales, and there's quite a few flops among it, so Denuvo has actually proved that piracy has no effect on sales.
If your game is shit, it will sell like shit, and if it's a good game with a good port, it will.

>Bamco says Berseria uses Denuvo because it's "proven to be effective in protecting their games"
>except for the fact that God Eater and many other games got cracked

I'm in no rush and will gladly wait to get the game for free instead of paying $60.

Then wait some days until it gets cracked.

There's no reason to.
Hell, Doom got cracked so fast they did something no other company has ever done: they removed the DRM with an update.

Which is funny because God Eater 2 hasn't sold that much on Steam.

That's actually a good idea, keep the DRM in the game until it gets cracked and then remove it.
Fundamentally the DRM isn't supposed to do much beside delay piracy.

Both God Eater games are completely dead to the point that it's difficult to play multiplayer. Also, the fact that you could get the game for ~50% off only a month after release says quite a bit about how successful the game was.

>Fundamentally the DRM isn't supposed to do much beside delay piracy.
It's actually supposed to PREVENT piracy, it just never works. EVER.

>caring about denuvo when games plummet in price only a couple months after they come out

If it works or not is irrelevant because it doesn't do what the devs seek with stopping piracy, which is more sales.
If you deliver a good port, the game already has a big chance of selling well.
Unless it's something like Mafia 3 where it's repetitive as fuck.

Fuck off you stupid weeb

Get a job nigger

Yeah the denuvo love threads make me sick. Not because I am ok with pirating, I used to be poor, so it was either pirating or not buying food (obviously games didn't require more than a p4 back then, the ones that did I couldn't play).
Now I have been slowly buying all the games I pirated and enjoyed.
Feel sorry for the poor kids in shitty countries that can only pirate though, paying $60 for a game is impossible if you earn 5 usd for an entire day of work.

I'll care when I can pay in rubles or rupees and buy new games for ~$8. The fact that I'm required to pay far more than they do is just plain stupid.

Mafia 3 isn't a good port either. Not a good game, not a good port. Not even worth pirating. Full of bugs.

>Said bugs reduced performance and sometimes screwed legit users
Source?
I remember that Russian making up a fake conspiracy about SSD's getting thrashed which was proved false.

I'm ignoring the part of it being a technical mess, but about the repetitiveness.
If your game is shit, but it's a good port, it may sell plenty, but not too much.
If it's a shit port, it will have mediocre sales no matter how good it is.
If it's a decent game with decent performance like Dying Light, it'll sell a shitload.

The DRM here is irrelevant.

They get to have lower price range because they live in Hell.

They have already cracked Deus ex, Watch dogs, etc, denuvo is barely a threat anymore.

That is a good thing because a large reason for JP developers not porting their games to the PC is piracy. This might convince them to move to PC platform.

So what, those italians have cracked so many Denuvo games that they have already run out of decent ones, and have started with crap like Watch Dogs 2 or Far Cry Primal.
Denuvo is irrelevant.

It won't because Denuvo has zero effect on sales.
They didn't use to port games to PC because PC gaming is borderline non-existant in Japan save for a few MMOs.
A lot of Jap games used Denuvo and sold like shit on Steam anyway.
Not that I care because the Japanese industry went to shit years ago and are incapable of delivering good games anymore.

>Claims started to surface about terrible game performance, hardware faults [due to excessive data writes] and claims that Denuvo had stole information on players computers. Even to this day, none of the claims have being linked to the DRM and even “Denuvo Software Solutions GmbH” themselves came out and explained that their protection method was incapable of causing these issues. One major concern regarding earlier Denuvo games is the lack of information for the player to notify them about what kind of security was installed with the game and how it could affect them in certain situations.

Who the hell knows the truth.

>Denuvo comes out
>proudly mark ''X DAYS WITH NO CRACKS''
>at first ignore cracks saying ''D-DENUVO WASN'T CRACKED, THEY JUST BYPASSED IT''
>in the end had to remove the ''DAYS WITH NO CRACKS'' shit because of how often their games are getting cracked
>yfw Sony is getting btfo by a bunch of bored macarronis

>why does everyone hate denuvo?
It's always online DRM killing performance.
It was the last nail in the coffin.
Made me return to physical games again. Thus dropping PC which has been a DRM experimentation zone for more than a decade now.

>Japanese developers feel safer in porting their games to PC
>more games come to PC as a result
>All Denuvo games eventually get cracked in the end anyways
I forsee a positive future

CPY doesn't like God Eater. They said so themselves

It has servers it has to connect to, and should those servers ever die, there may come a time where the games people buy will no longer be able to be played

87% of Denuvo Has strange 'memory spike lag' problem.

>They get to have lower price range because they live in Hell.
Wrong, they get lower prices, because publishers actually have to compete with competent pirates.
The second you get competent pirates distributing cheap copies in your country, your country gets low prices too.

Servers don't need to die, losing your own connection to them for various reasons is already enough.

It didnt sell much because it didnt have JP audio whereas successful jap games like Naruto and Xenoverse have dual audio.

But these games can be played offline, which says they at least don't need to be ALWAYS online

Wrong, they get lower prices because they live in Hell.

Are you retarded?

Wait, Denuvo games have been getting cracked? Has Just Cause 3? I already own it, but I want to get it without the DRM, and I want the DLC, but I'm not paying for that shit after they fucked up the game with the DRM and shitty performance that never got fixed.

>putting denuvo on niche games
why?

They need to phone home every few days. It's the same ass fucking other DRMs like it do, except it only uses a couple of fingers instead of the BBC.

Have any of the accusations against denuvo ever been backed with actual evidence? Nobody ever found evidence that it wrecks SSDs, nobody ever found evidence that it decreases performance. What gives?

good, nobody will talk about it here then

it sure wrecks sales though

I google image searched "Denuvo memes" and did not get what I expected.
