Stellar Blade has Denuvo

Stellar Blade has Denuvo

Damn, are you buying?

(Serious thread)

Based. Poor people and leeches shouldn't be able to enjoy the things I do.

No

already boughtened it for PS5 on release so I don't care about poorfag problems

I shan't be buying it.

No. Fuck denuvo

a year old game

70€

denuvo

no chance
either I'll get some denuvo activation for a dollar or wait a year or two when denuvo is removed

Paying money to run malware on my PC?
No.

oh no

ZASED
poorfags lose again
Another game Anon Babble will pretend to hate for a few months, then when the denuvo license expires, everyone will suddenly start singing its praises

kek
Anon Babble really do be like that

It's $70 so I'm simply not buying nor pirating it.

I already have.

Are you angry because of the performance hit or because you are poor? please be honest.

Keys are already available for around 50 bucks

i got money for it, nah i ain't buying denuvo shit, i'll wait for them to remuvo the denuvo and then i'll buy

I haven't bought a single denuvo game. I have no intention to start buying them now.

I'm not paying for stolen keys either. It should've been $50 max to begin with. It's a year old game and not even AAA.

Whenever i get a key from my usual reseller sure, i ain't buying full price for a year old game

I bought one and I'm still salty about it. They didn't put the disclaimer on the store page and I only found out it had denuvo because the game started throwing some error and when I looked up people were saying "yeah it's denuvo just wait a while". Fuck this piece of shit and fuck every publisher using it.

Let’s say the performance is the same, if not better with denuvo (as per the recent thread that compared the two), what about denuvo turns you off from purchasing? Or were you never going to pay to begin with, regardless of denuvo?

Or were you never going to pay to begin with, regardless of denuvo?

That's everyone here, only buttblasted pirate faggots are mad when games get denuvo

BTFO brownoid poorfags!

Anyway, I won't be buying, but that is because I already played it in PS5. It is a pretty good game, despite the fact the culmination of the story is rather weak and the controls are sometimes unreactive.

Another game Anon Babble will pretend to hate for a few months, then when the denuvo license expires, everyone will suddenly start singing its praises

Every single time.

Wastes resources (every cracked/denuvo removed game performs better, specially 1% lows), wears SSDs with absurd writes, imposes arbitrary limitations (5 activations per 24/h), not to mention the multiple random issues, depending on how it's implemented. Also not friendly to mods, specially anything beyond asset replacing (can't even do that to some denuvo'd games due to how they are programmed)

Not paying full price for a year old game. If snoy wants me to pay full price they can release it same time as console otherwise get fucked.

I will honestly just forget about this game, I wasn't willing to pay more than $40 or $50 for deluxe anyway. They are nuts if they think they are selling hotcakes with these prices.

I have already bought it,

every cracked game performs better

This is nonsense, because it is impossible to crack Denuvo. It can only be bypassed with an emulator layer, that acts as a Denuvo server. The Denuvo copy protection itself is still completely intact and running in your system.

Pea-brained pirate faggots just like to believe that """cracked""" Denuvo games run better, because they are stupid poor fag mongrels.

Yes. Because it encourages Sony to put more "exclusives" on PC

I will not buy censored slop, I don't care if it has denuvo

I'm waiting for the crack.

It *is* possible to fully remove denuvo, its just so goddamn difficult that nobody does it. Only 1 guy did it, and only once (if you don't count the easier-to-crack .NET version of denuvo as being denuvo)
I am simply not buying software infected with near-malware crap just so the Jews can hope to have 1 more sale from Nigeria. I am not buying software that limits me in what I can do. And no amount of Indian astroturfing such as the other pajeet that replied to you will ever change my mind or force me to do anything.
t. rtx 4080s and ryzen 9 9950x owner.

Can't
Even if they remove it I still can't
I just don't trust a company that willingly installs malware from China on my machine
I paid about 5k for everything. Not having it bricked because China wants to go to war

Because it kills SSDs, not worth wearing it out for a game

literally no one cared about ff16 or jedi survivor once denuvo was removed
shit games

Nope. Not because I wasn't interested in the game, but because fuck Denuvo. I bought FF7 Rebirth and E33 specifically because they weren't infested with it.

Just imagine the poor fag melt down, when GTA6 is released on PC with Denuvo copy protection. It will be absolutely glorious. KEK

No.
But it has nothing to do with Denuvo.

90 euros

GOD DAMN

If Denuvo is your breaking point, you probably weren't going to buy it anyways.

denuvo offline now exists. you can now play many denuvo games, for only $3-5 each. i finished ac shadow for only 5 dollars lol

paying for piracy

Wait, Denuvo is chinese? FUUUUCK

What a big load of bullshit. No, it's not bypassed, the only time it was just bypassed was when 3DM used some hacky loader emulator, which only worked on some early denuvo versions. But even Empress cracks aren't fully "cracked" either, if your metric is having the DRM fully removed from the executable, which is a waste of time and was only accomplished once by CPY. It instead NOPs the denuvo calls in the assembly. So the code is still there but it never runs to begin with.

I wasn't going to at first. But now that I know it has Denuvo and will block all the pathetic pirates, I'm all in baby!

30€ is about as much as I'm willing to pay for that game. I usually never pay over 50 smackers let alone 70 for a new game, and this isn't a new game.
Call me when it's been deeply discounted. I've waited a year, I can wait some more.

That's just what happens when you delay a game for this long. The hype is dead and I've lived this long without it so my brain feels no pressure to get it.

even if it didn't, I wouldn't even pirate it because my pc is too shit to run it

No. I expected it to be $50 max, maybe one day on a sale. It's simply not worth it for a 7/10 game, denuvo or not.

This doesn't affect me so, yes

I bought buyed, yes.

If you want sexy games you better vote with your wallet. If you want Shift Up to stop releasing PS5 exclusives, you better vote with your wallet.

90 euro for complete edition

lol nah, these gooks must be on some heavy shit if they think this is how they'll recover their losses

Special edition doesn't seem worth it.

nice try marketeer, now remove the DRM, remove PSN and lower the prices
and uncensor the game while you are at it, we didn't forget

I'm not giving greedy gooks money for their overpriced sloppy seconds.
You either put the game on PC day 1 or you don't ask 10$ above regular PC game prices a year and change later.
Fuck off.

i wasn't going to buy it anyway, but a game having or ever having denuvo is an instant never buy

I'm not buying because I refuse to support the move to 70€ and if you want the entire game you have to pay 90€.

$80

AA game

1+ year later

denuvo

PSN

good one

Nope. Price is not much of an issue. But I don't buy denuvo games. Even if they remove it, I will pirate it out of spite, for having launched with it.
If they want me to give them money, they better remove denuvo before, or immediately after launch.

sexy games

censored

Lmao

PSN is more egregious and I'd be willing to ignore it if the game was like $40. If they want to treat PC as second class users, they don't get to charge $60+ for their games. Hope it flops.

i finished ac shadow

why would a nigga do this?

PSN isn't required.

I don't like that style of vidya, plus I ain't no way I'm paying 70€ for a fucking game.

yeah, just like it wasn't required on Helldivers either.

maybe in a year or two when it's on sale for like 15 bucks

Having it as an option at all is already cancerous since it makes the game be banned in certain regions regardless if it's mandatory or not.

No. I would have pirated it. Now I will actively discourage people from playing it.

They are pulling the exact same shit they did with Helldivers 2. PSN isn't required but there's some content locked behind it, and then it's updated and suddenly required.

Denuvo

Damn, are you buying?

Yeah, the last like 5 Atlus games that had Denuvo hasnt fucked me. I've hard to get over my Denuvo hate because it is hard to be picky these days for new releases. Unlike Atlus games, it will be removed in a year probably.

I paid $5 to chop off my testicles

Damn, I'm way jealous.

nah sony will not pull that shit again after the last shitstorm that bascially killed helldivers 2 as a game because everyone left

I simply don't trust them anymore.

The content is an outfit that isn't worth typing in a free key to get. Sony probably asked them to make a PSN exclusive outfit and they were like here's your outfit(fuck you Sony)

They said that for helldovers too then changed their minds after a few months, get fucked

Damn, are you buying?

looks like many are
Why do people hate denuvo again?

and uncensor the game while you are at it

Modders will do that.

there's some content locked behind it

That will be one of the first mods lmao.

I shouldn't have to mod my game, specially not my $80 game, to get some content that should be there to begin with.

B-BECAUSE

regurgitates decade old, disproven information

are you buying

I will, on ps5. So then that way I actually own the game. I guess the joke's on me for fucking waiting a year.

Are the devs retarded?

Why do people hate denuvo again?

Older versions had high CPU usage, lowering FPS

People got fucked because of game bugs and reinstalling and getting locked out

There have been Denuvo bugs that blocked access to game you bought legally

I buy games with Denuvo DRM, but Denuvo hate is 100% understandable

Every new release tops the charts because they are competing against f2p shit which don't have a gorillion new players every day. It won't hold that spot for a day against even against Doom Reddit Ages anyway.

did you miss the censorship controversy
yes, they are

They are gacha devs, what do you think?

Niggernuvo is constantly doing read/write operations on your SSD, aka it shortens the lifespan of your storage device.
Plus it shits on performance and I paid $1200 on a 7900XTX so I better be able to milk it for everything that its worth.

I'm not buying this anymore.

Seething brown grooners are the only people who are upset about this.

You're thinking about concurrent users and f2p shit can chart all the time. What you replied to was a screenshot of Steam's Top Sellers by Revenue. That means a game like Doom is likely to fall off the chart over time, since it's not a live service game. By the time Stellar Blade drops, it'll probably gone from the list.

this game has anti-pirate software so... im not gonna buy it!!!!

pirates are retards

I will never play a game that has Denuvo because I pretty much stopped buying games after Sekiro.

just download malware bro

No, I'm thinking of top sellers and that's exactly how it works. F2P always on top until a new release comes, tops the charts and disappears in a few days. Shit like CP2077 and TW3 are exceptions since they are popular as fuck and pretty cheap, so there's always new sales, so they always stay in the top 10.
I still think it won't hold for a lot of days, it's a literal who game compared to Doom.

Damn, are you buying?

No.

No I'm not.

I'll buy it when Denuvo is Remuvo.

I would have modded the game to make the outfits more revealing (or remove them completely) anyways.

denuvo offline

Even if it's legit, it feels like a fucking scam lol.

You enjoy eating shit and rimming nigger anus though, which is free 99.9% of the time.

You still seem like you're misunderstanding. It's not a chart of top sales units. It's by revenue. If CP2077 and TW3 are selling for cheap, that means they're selling a lot of copies even today. Because, by revenue, for those games to rank that high, they would have to sell a whole bunch of copies as those low, discounted prices.

As for Doom, I don't know why you hold that franchise in such high regards. Especially with TDA's seemingly poorer performance compared to the two previous Doom games. It didn't even break Doom (2016)'s CCU. Compared to literal whole games, TDA is getting beat and badly.

There are a lot of literal who games these days that do well. The games that are supposed to do well are the ones flopping these days. Literal who games are the ones going viral while games of long, established IPs are struggling under the weight of their legacy and budgets.

I'll buy it when Denuvo is Remuvo.

Based.

Nope, not buying censoredslop.

m-mods tho!

Sorry, I'm not a consoomer slave so I'm not into being a whipped pussy fixing other people's mistakes. You'll never experience how the game was meant to be on release just like everyone else, you're just doing busywork for something in the likeness of it, but day 1 censor patch is how the game is.

See and keep coping, nigger

Man PC gaming is so shit lmao have to install some root level jeware just for the privilege to buy an old console port full price.

On a discount when they remove denuvo

tops the charts and disappears in a few days

Stellar Blade is almost a month away from release

Why is it flopping?

I know it's by revenue, that's how new games top it by selling lower units than shit like CP 2077 and TW3. That's the point. Anything relevant enough will top the charts for a while.
And reddit Doom might be decadent shit, but it's more relevant than some literal who korean game.

Anon Babble shits and farts day in and day out about le woke menace not allowing hot babes in vidya anymore

Game with hot babes comes out on PC

Anon Babble won't support it unless it's 90% off or oitright free with piracy

And everyone who cares is pre-ordering, because they have been waiting ages for this to come out.

I want games with hot babes, not a game with the main selling point being hot babes. That's some retarded coomer shit and I'm not paying top dollar for it. This game is a 6/10 and not worth whatever they are asking.

GPU temp higher without denuvo

meaning you are a poorfag throttled by a shit CPU

3292 mhz aka an i3 3220 aka a comically outdated CPU that came out seven years before the game and, in fact, does not reach the game's minimum reqs

Nice try, brokie.

Yeah

Yeah but from some key reseller

pcfags when they find out they cant steal a game and have to get a job now

There's always some retarded shit at the top of steams best seller list. That's what happens your platform is dominated by third worlders on laptops who only have 3 dollars to spend.

I'll do the same thing I do with all Denuvo shit, which is wait until the Denuvo is removed by the publisher. As a bonus the game's gonna be like $5 by then.

what if they don't remove it

Then I won't buy. It's not I don't have 1000+ games in my backlog.

You will always be a poor little bitch squirming around like a worm demanding brand new games get 160fps on your celleron laptop lmao

This.

i will if they remove it.

I don't know. Is Doom all that relevant? Here are some literal who games that have blown up in the past few years that did way better than Doom TDA:

Black Myth Wukong

Palworlds

Lost Ark

Banana

Valheim

Schedule I

Helldivers 2

Among Us

Naraka Bladepoint

R.E.P.O

Rust

Lethal Company

Satisfactory

Fall Guys

shiftup has gone full woke with nikke in the past few months
the company has been infected by kike investors

already did
I bought it on ps5, but have been waiting for the pc release to play it
pre-ordered on steam and can't wait to play

denuvo

no thanks

buying?

no.

downloading ripped 3d models for my free h-game?

yes.

let's be real the only reason faggots are so butthurt about Denuvo is because they can't pirate the game

He did struck a nerve there huh?

fukken destroyed

ITT seething brown faggots

Nigga I might not even play another video game this year, I'm supporting TITS and women as objects in games

Probably, I hardly see how Denuvo would have much of an impact in a game like this with the specs it asks for.

I'll buy it when they get rid of denuvo in a year or so, yea. I hope they enjoy paying millions in subscription fees to an anti-consumer scam company for my $20 sale purchase.

denuvo shills calling people who don't like their invasive trash malware "poor" is like democrats calling people who don't like their insane delusional social ideology "weird"

These aren't denuvo shills, these people probably don't even understand how denuvo works. They're Nikke tourists conditioned to pay $60 for a shitty skin, so anti-consumer stuff doesn't affect them as long as they can beat their meats.

Nah they're using the exact same rhetoric as denuvo shills always use even in threads that have nothing to do with Shift Up games.

I'm sorry. Never compromise.

I thought this was a third worlder game?

It's like $40 just buy from cheaper region.

HOW LONG UNTIL DENUVO IS REMOVED

1 more year, trust the plan

fuck no i will never buy a denuvo game, you dont own it with this shit inside the game you have to log in online to play it, yeah pirates but who gives a fuck the only people who pirate was not gonna buy your game anyway

nows your chance to support a decent game with a sexy female lead. dont post about how you want more games like this then never buy it

Probably never. Sony signed a new deal with denuvo like sega where they will never remove it.

i probably will buy it, but will leave a negative review for denuvo

what about denuvo turns you off from purchasing? Or were you never going to pay to begin with, regardless of denuvo?

you have to be online to play single player games, destroys fps, its literal malware its just shit for people who actually pay money and removes ownership of the digital game from the person who pays money

this is why i will never buy denuvo games

And there's nothing wrong with denuvo

I mean the game is extremely popular and will be pirated by tens of thousands if not for denuvo. They have no choice.

t. cuck defending enigma added to old capcom games

I will not pay.

I'm not paying for a game made by Shift Up when they don't even have a clear philosophy behind their lewd to begin with, they make all sorts of weird decisions that make it seem like they're conforming to some higher power, and then immediately go back to extreme lewd.

On top of that, I'm not paying full price for a game with denuvo, that was held hostage in an exclusivity contract, that they pretended was just them needing time to make a PC port. Especially when their PC client for Nikke has been absolute dogshit.

when will there be sfm of the less mature members of the game?

pirated by tens of thousands if not for denuvo

More like hundreds of thousands lol. Top selling and trending game almost a month out from release.

Rules for the consumption of digital games:

never buy games with DRM*

never buy games at full price

never buy a game that you don't intend to play immediately, regardless of the price

* if you use Steam, note that you can legally emulate Steamworks and access your games even without being logged into your account, as long as there are no DRMs

remember when people raised such a shit storm about malware drm like securom that companies actually stopped using it. what happened to turn everyone into fucking cucks?

but it's unintrusive

so if I fuck your wife is that ok as long as you don't notice?

You just want to jerk off to Stellar Blade without paying. Nope. Pay up.

id like future games to be playable not shut off when one company has some fuck up and has to be shut down.

unfortunately DRM or kernel level anti cheat are my number one red flags so no

fuck
nah, I will never support products that use that garbage

I was gonna pre order but Im not gonna help a company that dont believe on its products. If your game is good you dont need denuvo it sells by itself ex. Cyberpunk, witcher, expedition 33, hollow knight.

Sadly no

Like I understand that denuvo helps initial sales.
I just don't like denuvo

I don't buy games with malware. I have bought several drm free games from gog and mangagaymers. I will not be buying this one until they remove denuvo. I am a patient person. I've been waiting for 7 years for sega to remove denuvo from valkyria chronicles 4. I'm pretty sure it's been on sale for under $10 since then but I don't care. I will not install denuvo even if they make the game completely free.

I don't think it will be cracked anytime soon, empress (the only cracker of denuvo that I at least know of) has disappeared off the face of the earth it seems

I mean even if she was present in the scene it wouldn't matter because there are like 15 other better and more popular games people want to see cracked.

Much like the idea of you having sex, Denuvo's so-called problems are purely imaginary.

I haven't bought vidya since like 2018
I'll play your modern shitware for free, but otherwise, nah

yep, Thanks TIM for the free vbucks!

unlikely
First of all im not super interested in the game(ive got nier automata if i want 3rd person action game with good looking fem characters)and pricing and region lock just cements this
things might change in the future and i might find affordable regionfree key but in the mean time im not buying.

It doesn't.
There are literally studies that came to the conclusion

DRMs of all kind are waste of money and piracy has no effects at all on digital sales, in fact piracy in many case had effects of boosting sales (explosive viral marketing effect)

But alas Jews gonna Jews, if anything a drm like Denuvo hurts initial sales (turns people off buying, the very expensive license cost for the drm force an hefty price tag turning more people off) so you need an exception release like Wukong to make people suck it on denuvo and games like that usually don't come from AAA publishers these days.
They can literally see with their own eyes how many drm free games makes a shitton of money, wins awards, become cult classics, etc. and still they seeth at pirates but it's all cope for making a shit game.

why do piratefags feel the need to inform people they're not buying the games they weren't going to buy in the first place?

poor pirates, nothing personal I will fap in your name bros

Poorfags that made piracy a lifestyle instead of just something you do when you are a broke faggot.

Are you Albanian, or Congolese?

100% some slavshit from the european butthurt belt

buying stellar blade

why would i do that when i could play the game it rips off?

denuvo works and the small amount of whiners dont matter anyway
i am in favor of removing denuvo after a month though since thats when the majority of sales occur

I'm buying it

I was already struggling to justify it because I already bought it on console a year ago but this just seals the deal desu.
The game wasn't even that great to begin with so I never bothered with the dlc either.

If they're going to put denuvo in everything then I hope they keep making Sony exclusives and go bankrupt

I paid $5 so I could eat feces lol

Anon Babble is here for every body to make their voice heard simple as

first reply just disregards what OP wanted

I'm not really interested in the game to begin with. Power to everyone who will or has bought it, but there's this one blender animation of the protag taking it from behind and that's more than enough to satisfy me until the next time I'm reminded of the game.

I'm starting to fucking hate stellar blade, it should never have existed.
It was supposed to be "the savior of video games" and show the current era that you can release sexy games without censorship/wokeshit.
Then the censorship debacle happens and the game became a laughingstock right there and never fully recovered from it, and to this day no one knows exactly what or why the fuck it happened.

The comes the denuvo shit + the PSN wanking faggotry, the game is starting to become such a shit-stain on the company's name, it never should have existed at all.

And to top it all off the actual game itself is mediocre as fuck, but now because of all the aforementioned bullshit the game has even more shitposting ammo to use against it, so even if you genuinely like the game and want to discuss it you fucking can't. And that was already impossible BEFORE denuvo got announced.
Concurrently if you criticize the game in any way, shape, or form, you'll immediately get called a poorfag now.

It. Never. Should. Have. Existed.

More like hundreds of thousands lol

While I agree it is true but it is not like those people were going to but the game anyway
maybe 1% of them
Pirate=/lost sales
