Denuvo will lock you out of games on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck if you keep changing Proton versions

Denuvo strikes again!
You're viewing a single thread.
That would certainly make me request a refund and just pirate the game.
Heads up, Steam has stopped refunding even broken games if it passes the two hour mark (even if it's from sitting there on your system process locked).
Illegal where I live, probably why they give me warnings about that but always end up approving the refund
What's the law there?
Any online purchase can be refunded within 7 days, no matter the reason. I don't even need a reason other than "didn't like it" or "actually I'd rather use the money to buy some chocolate"
Brazil?
There are no groups currently cracking Denuvo.
In that case, request a refund and just forget about the game. It's that little bit worse for the publisher who chose Denuvo.
Doubt it.
Now that it's much harder to crack they'll sell more. So many thiefs out there with plenty of money to burn who choose not to because they can get away with it.
Are the thieves with plenty of money to burn in the room with you, right now? Can you point them out? Where did they hurt you? Was it actually EA or Ubisoft but you're scared to let us know? Was it Paradox's DLC scheme, or Total War? Are they the ones who really hurt you? It's ok. You're in a safe space. The AI generated loot skins can't hurt you, here.
There are several individuals though. Fitgirl and Empress come to mind.
Doesn't fitgirl just repack stuff (compressing the game for smaller download sizes) rather than doing the actual cracking?
Oh I get it, fitgirl will Make It FIT! Huh.
Fitgirl
That's a repacker, not a cracker.
Cracker? I barely know her?
ahh heard
Empress has not cracked anything for a long time and Fitgirl has never cracked anything
I think Empress is too busy ranting about trans people to crack games anymore
And men in general.
Yeah I think Empress got caught \ found by police? Or maybe that was just them being a little internet shit whining about "betrayals" 🤷
I followed her telegram for a while then it became too cringe
Is anything worth cracking? GTA 6 will be. But what has come out recently is worth the effort?
Yea I would think anyone who has a workaround is keeping it quiet, otherwise it'll get fixed before then. Then it would be harder to break it for gta.
Is it because companies tend to strip denuvo from the games after some months?
I think it is mostly due to it being difficult to hack and those with the skill are well employed and don't want to risk legal action or spend the time to crack games.
Yeah, didn't Denuvo themselves hire a few of the former crackers?
The rumour going around, back then, was that Denuvo went under the table and paid crackers who had the ability to break their DRM to like -- Stop doing that. And that this was the reason EMPRESS (actually insane woman) was the only person left who could crack it.
Of course, there is no way to prove that.
