Denuvo hurts performa-

anon doesn't know what margin of error is

introduce overhead

program becomes faster

on the hard r matter

Stellar blad had rape?

you add a second layer of copy protection that causes the game to slowly shit itself if the bloatware isn't detected for security reasons - with the goal of fucking over repacks and making them look incompetent. Especially if you add it further into the game so the cracked version runs 25-50% slower but only after 10 hours total or 90 minutes of continuous play.

An incredible lie that defies any logic, and you believe it because the devs said so...

This is within the margin of error you could get by running the game the same. Subversive stuff.
But if anything, this means there is a non denuvo exe that runs the full game and might be leaked.

This is so stupid, but holy shit would it be funny if the game has denuvo removed in some update and it actually does end up running worse.

Doesn't this only make sense if they outright built the game around Denuvo in a way that it functions worse when it's not running?

if(!denuvoDetected()) { runWorse(); }

Glad there's DENUVO
And i care nothing about what trolls will answer me, why?

Because they're crying for the game already, blaming SONY, when the game is made by Shift Up, the company who created NIKKE, their next games will be multiplatform

The real reason people is crying about the game having denuvo this time, is because they expected "A Sony game won't have Denuvo, we will be able to crack it soon and play it for free, mod the character with thousands of mods since it is Unreal Engine and everything for free"

But no, Shift Up decided to protect their IP, their effort, and being their first ever game being sold, i'm glad no one will be able to play it for a time, because they deserve the money, because this game is worth every penny, and they deserve to grow as a company, so they keep making awesome games like NIKKE, which they should turn into a game like this in a future, as its story is WAY better than most AAA games released on the last 10 years

Better to lose some sales
Better to have review bombing by kids crying
Better to lose some frames

If that lets them grow as a company, as they deserve everything, for not falling into censorship like everyone does this days

Review bombing matters nothing, everyone already knows the game it's just fire

PS: You can save your points, i care NOTHING about what you'll say about my post
PS2: The game works in Steam Deck even having Denuvo

too long didnt read

- Denuvo has successfully stopped Piracy (If used), at least on PC Games
- Pirate scene like CODEX, Baldman, Steampunks is Dead, only P2P crackers remain, but no single one of them can crack Denuvo. They can only analyze it.
- There are no relation of Denuvo Games causes Bad sales
- The rumor that Denuvo causes performance loss are mostly false. Pirates always uses bad PC port with bad Denuvo implementation (+ Outdated Denuvo version) to argue this rumor.

so why dont they optimize the game properly then?

Companies wasting even more money in Denuvo when it doesn't boost the sales at all is funnier

The police investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing moment

No, it had random grafitti sprays on the backgrounds. And there where a spot where the "Hard" and "R" grafitti were next to each other. People argued that it means "nigger". Even tho I have never ever heard a racist say "Those fucking Hard Rs!!"

This is quite literally impossible and an absolutely retarded claim to make. Morons will create a billion threads about regardless

WaitCHADs will simply wait the denuvo out, they've already waited a year for the PC release, what's another 2 or 3 more.

I don't care about performance hit, I just hate DRM.
I don't get how faggots can defend something that actively hurts them.

No, they [HEADCANON]

You are a fucking retard, "minimum FPS" is a meaningless meme that schizos bring to the table when they want to win an argument. I don't even know why it's mentioned. Most video benchmark about denuvo have the comment section filled with arguments about that because normalfag brain see big number = better.
If you think about it for a second it was always retarded to think that a well developed anti tampering softare meaningfully affects performance, i don't know about the early implementations, maybe they were poorly made, but it's obvious to anyone with double digit IQ that the denuvo hate is driven by coping faggots that either want to play for free but have too much cognitive dissonance to do it without coming up with excuses or they are just mad they have to wait a week to consume their slop.

For everyone who thinks they're having a conversation, the devs are saying it runs better with Denuvo than with their other multiple layers of DRM instead. It is not Denuvo vs Normal, but Denuvo vs other shitty chinky DRM.

OP is a disingenuous cunt and everyone who thought they were discussing the core argument was being taken for a ride.

*without double digit IQ

I was going to buy this game. Was.

yes goy, the game runs better with literal extra overhead!

no, its a second layer of denovu that makes the game run worse if its not active. all of empress' cracks had these hard, otherwise inexplicable stutters that only make sense if there's several callbacks to denovu. like pause for 40ms if denovu not found.

So, may we see that version without denuvo? To confirm the claims of course :^)

Isnt this the guy that said the Sony mandated censored outfits were his trve vision?

That is the most retarded claim ever.

i care nothing about what trolls will answer me, why?

Didn't read beyond this. You're an ESL third-world shitstain.

Did you realize Anon Babble going to shitter when more and more Games starting to get uncrackable in starting 2022 when there are no scenes available to crack Denuvo ??

as always and ever will be, draconian copy protection is a vote of no confidence in the game's quality

The game already released though and was a success on the PS5, you can literally just watch a play through or even play the demo on PS5 for free. I think that only applies to titles that are releasing for the first time not rereleases.

but enough about steam

They know the masses aren't going to think twice about a retarded statement like that

No i mean instead of discussing the game you shitpost about the innocent DRM instead

I boughted on Steam already so I don't care, just give me Eves boobs NOW OR I WILL SEND A TRUCK TO KOREA FOR PROTEST.

running a test once gives shit data, and that looks like shit data

If the game is good it sells by itself. Denuvo is for greedy companies that fuck their costumers in the ass while pirates dont give a fuck about their shitty game.

punishing paying customers worse than pirates

innocent

You should call the entire industry evil then no?

Denuvo.

Welp seems that Im getting forced to play it 2 or 3 years in the future, when this shit don't have Denuvo and I could download it for FREE.

Denuvo has been the subject of false shitposting by schizo piratefags from the beginning. Originally the lie they spread was that it was going to kill your ssd. Then it shifted to performance and now recently people claim that games with denuvo can't be modded despite that literally never being the case for any game with it. They've been wrong at every turn. It turns out it's just butthurt poorfags mad they can't pirate the game.

I don't care, I'm not buying intrusive, useless malware that fucks up my SSD

executing more instructions makes it faster

claim devs

fake and gay, nothing any developer says matters
we get the game and EVERY SINGLE TIME we immediately see performance problems for ourselves, that miraculously clear up substantially a few years down the line when they remove denuvo, impressive coincidence that this happens at the same time in EVERY CASE :)

hello denovu employee
