The ongoing fight between crackers and DRM has reached a truly massive moment, as reportedly Denuvo DRM has been fully broken open in all games.
Denuvo DRM is generally pretty hated. Not just because of the limits it places on systems, but because of many reported performance issues that could be as a result of its inclusion in various games. In the past, Denuvo DRM was a pretty strong choice for publishers as it was difficult to crack open so pirates were always playing a long game of catch-up but it seems that’s no longer the case. Enabling publishers to feel like they’re protecting their initial sales revenue.
I didn’t know that if you change Proton version in a game with Denuvo they can lock you out.
What a distopic world we live in.
Last year I was a sad penguin because all denuvo crackers were retired.
Now I’m a happy penguin.

God it frustrates me. Like I get wanting to put it in your game for release, but once it’s cracked, why bother keeping it in there? All it does it eat performance and your own money to maintain it. Just let it go.
Apparently paying customers often times wait for the crack and the thing to be removed before buying.
This is pretty much me. More or less with consoles as-well.
Because then they’ll release an update and no one will bother to re-crack the game for it. Or, in the case of hypervisor, because most people don’t risk it
Containerize the game somehow so that it thinks it’s the same day every day. That way it never knows when to reach out and check. Groundhog Day hack.
Yup that’s what they did, article is out of date
I was taking a shot in the dark, so it’s cool that that was their approach lol.
This is just a very late report on the hypervisor thing, it sounds like nothing new has been discovered.
its reporting on studios experimenting with adding online check-ins as a reaction to HV
Strange how Denuvo being cracked doesn’t change how I feel about it at all.
I feel slightly better for a second before remembering that these companies will find a more aggressively anti-consumer method.
Pretty sure Hypervisor cracker team DenuvOwO already bypassed these checks
This is still just about hypervisor, the title is just clickbaity to make it sound like something new has come out.
