It was cracked for singleplayer offline, same with shit like sim city.

I wonder what makes Sonyggers so fucking autistic. Some kind of fumes from their console? Just buying Sony stuff instantly damages your brain?
After Bloodborne shilling threads died off (they lived much longer than game itself, though, huehue), plebs came up with idea of trolling ppl with Denuvo shilling
I guess that happens when you have no games to play on your gookstation 4
>>
>>344435446
>copyright protection program that costs a billion dollars to license

Denuvo costs 100,000 eur for a AAA dev, which is fucking nothing. The cost is recouped with less than 2000 sales.
>>
>>344435810

Why even pay to license it and risk pissing off everybody, when you could use a far more commonly acceptable DRM like always online, which also doesn't require outside support to keep secure?
>>
>>344431294

>>344437263
>risk pissing off everybody
Literally nobody even knows what Denuvo is. The only people that get pissed are a tiny minority of forum dwellers and pirates that wouldn't buy the game anyways.
>>
If Denuvo is so good, how come there is no demonstrable evidence that it boosts sales of games using it?
>>
>>344437737
because people pirate games as a demo to see if they like it, and if they do they'll buy it. but no demo(pirate) then no buy

atleast this is what pirates told me
>>
>>344437737

The evidence is no publisher is stopping to use Denuvo after they use it once.
>>
>>344437737
Because there are other games to pirate that don't use it.
>>
>>344434618
You mean
>It's been 8 months
>>
>>344437737
>how come there is no demonstrable evidence that it boosts sales
Because it doesn't. All Denuvo games sold like shit. Like utterly depressing sales numbers.
New Hitman for example, sold like 250k. Rise of Buttraider sold like 2 mil, just cause 3 1 mil. Just shit sales after shit sales.
>>
>>344437737

It doesn't boost sales, much like starforce before it. No one likes it when devs put a literal lock on games. It's insulting.

But people are used to less obvious locks, like always online, steam, and origin, so those are largely okay in the public's eye.
>>
>>344438207

That is not evidence.

Evidence would be sales increasing for games that use Denuvo. To date every game that has used Denuvo and has been a sequel to a game that didn't use it has not outsold the older games in the series.

FIFA is by far the best example. It sells almost the same every single year, and the most recent one which used Denuvo sold the exact same amount as every other FIFA game. Wasn't Denuvo suppose to boost sales? Because it sure didn't with FIFA.
Infact, one could say EA literally wasted money using Denuvo, and if they'd simply not used it FIFA would have been more profitable for them.

Denuvo is literally losing developers/publishers money when they use it. They're paying lots of money for nothing.

Probably because they've paid to use it for the next x many years and since they've paid to use it, they may as well.

Alternatively, publishers have been trying to convince us piracy is bad for decades now and how it's literally killing everything and going to cause the death of every relevant industry. Yet these same industries piracy is killing are increasing on a yearly basis.
Publishers have been spouting this shit for so long they actually believe it now.

Denuvo offers a useful tool for the developers because it removes one variable that couldn't be kept track of.

Which is pretty cool. If a game sales poorly its down to advertisement or game quality. And if the marketing budget is already bloated, they will understand finally its because of poor quality.

>>344438982

An incredibly niche series expanded it's audience by basing their game off of something that has millions of fans. Of course it was going to sell better, before it was "Total War who cares", now it's "Total War Warhammer" and got access to the huge Warhammer fan base.

That isn't Denuvos doing. That is the developers expanding their fanbase.

Anti-piracy measures are needed because without them software would lose its value. You can argue that cops aren't needed in a small peaceful town, but chaos and lawlessness would grow without the arm of the law; piracy is the same.
You guys talk like every single game before Denuvo was free to play and things like "cracks" weren't needed.

Indie devs don't have the 100k+ dollars on hand to license this shit. They just put their game on steam straight away instead.

Yes, but everytime I like a game, I buy it afterwards. This was the case witch Cities Skylines. I tried it out, played with it around 2-3 hours and bought it immediately. However I dodged many-many bullets with pirating.

>"It's been two weeks and I still can't pirate it. I can't wait any longer so I'm going to buy it"
I bought Total War: Warhammer because of this. I wanted to like it, but it was shit. I wasted 60 yuros on it and promised myself, that I'll never buy a game again I can't try out before.

>>344439704
If that reddit thread was true, then Denuvo has different fees depending on the game, developer and publisher. They don't ask $100k to everyone.
>>
>>344439704

Its been confirmed that 100k dollars are for AAA publishers only.

For indies, it ranges from 1000 dollars to 20000 dollars depending on the game.
>>
Post proof of Denuvo only costing $100k for an AAA release or fuck off.

It probably costs a percentage of all sales. Not a flat fee.

No big publisher will ever admit to having poor quality. They'll find something to blame poor sales on no matter what. At the moment it's piracy, previously it was used-game/second-hand sales, next it'll be entitled consumers or developers not living up to 'company standards'.

The buck will always be passed.

But putting the game on steam, origin, or always online costs 0 dollars, whereas using a DRM company to provide a middleware DRM solution costs X money, and X is always more than 0.

So you'd not be using it.

This could actually be the case if as a hobby playing video games suffered from scarcity, but that isn't the case. There are so many games available (and some are good for hundreds of hours or even more) that you should never actually find yourself in a situation where you don't have anything to play if you don't buy the latest AAA shit-looking game that features Denuvo.

If the game looks like shit and you can't try it out to see for yourself, then you play something else until you CAN try it out or it becomes cheap enough for its apparent quality.

Then you should take a look at for example Far Cry: Primal. No one talks about that game, but according to steamspy, only around 200.000 people bought it on Steam. Obviously the total numbers are a bit higher because of uPlay, but I don't think that it sold so well.. and it was a very shitty game.

Both games are new IPs.
Both games are attempts to plagiarize two popular games (Dark Souls, The Witcher).
One uses Denuvo. The other doesn't.
Note how piracy had no impact on how the public saw both games.

The funny thing is, the Denuvo protected one sold enough to get a sequel greenlited.

The entire point of the bland AAA industry lately is that it sells on their core audience, naturally, and pure hype. The hype generated brings in the wider audience that will buy the game on impulse and due to marketing, but not play it very long/finish the game. Thus they want a preventative measure in place to guarantee those initial sales before people come to a general consensus on the quality of a game.

It's the same reason films have review embargoes; if the embargo is lifted the day of release then you know the company has no faith in it and it will probably be a shitty movie. A good movie will have the faith of the company and a very limited embargo; a good game will stand on its own and sell well without the need for DRM.

>>344442434

It also shows Denuvo has no effect on sales.

Literally every game that has used Denuvo and been a sequel has not has an increase in sales over past games in the series that didn't use Denuvo.

FIFA is by far the best example. It sells about 6 million every year. Has for like a decade now. Want to know how much FIFA 16 sold (that uses Denuvo)? About 6 million.

Infact, one could argue that Denuvo is decreasing sales because most games using Denuvo are selling worse than other games that didn't use it (within the same series). There could obviously be many reasons for this, but a trend is starting to emerge and that trend is use Denuvo and get worse sales.

Denuvo has no demonstrable effect on sales. So why bother using it when using it costs money?
>>
>>344431294
>Nothing is Uncrackable
True and Denuvo knows that too. Their goal is not to be uncrackable but merely to be uncracked for about the first 2 weeks of release.
The impatient kids who want the game on day 1 - that's all Denuvo needs to be profitable.

The one thing I don't understand is, do I as a dev care? What I mean is, what numbers and statistics can they come up with to actually tell me that paying them 5k (or whatever) for their software will net me more profits.

Asking as someone actually attempting to make shit.

If they came and proved to me that by giving them 5k USD I would get an extra 25k, I see no reason not to take it. But they can't, can they? If they simply told me "w-well it can't be pirated!", it seems kinda pointless. From what I can remember, Denuvo games didn't have anything special. MGSV sold a fuckton as expected, but the others weren't particularly good.

What I find most delightful in life are these absurdistic things that happen to the status quo.

All of you were going with the idea of "well they will always be cracked, because durrr hurrr piracy, hurrr durr morals, durrr hurrr ppl ur smurt, hurrr durr hackers and muh socialism"

and then the improbably happened, piracy was actually made impossible. Now you guys are the ones with the shoe on the other foot. Just like the devs who were saying that before. You guys are now the party who will get shit upon.

The status quo was changed once more and I find it to be glorious. I have already accepted this reality and I am fighting all of your damage control and processing of this reality to be very delightful.

Its probably even more delightful than the games that I am missing now because of denuvo. Well who cares, I enjoy them a lot less lately anyhow.

Plenty of games with no DRM at all have sold amazingly well.

Infact, the GOTY last year didn't even use DRM.
>>
>>344443278
Yes.
I personally liked the game, but I'm not very optimistic about the sequel; the publisher fired the original developers to make the sequel themselves.
>>
>>344431294
All that is available is a bypass that requires you to obtain a ticket from a legitimate copy (must have access to the Steam account that owns the game). Thus, unless you have the proper credentials to an account with the game, the bypass simply won't work. Pretty fucking pointless if you ask me.

No DRM can be compared to a door to a house without a lock.
Just because you can just enter there without any problems like the owner does not mean you own the house and can just go in and do whatever you want.
It's still not your house and you are there illegally but there was just nothing stopping you from entering it.

Those are people who wanna play multiplayer games. How old are you buddy? Piracy exists since humanity created digital goods. Look around you, no apocalypse. Piracy is irrelevant, music business threw a fit agianst it, learned that isn't worth it. Movie business threw a fit against it, learned that it isn't worth it. Videogames are the infants that actually already passed the phase of throwing a fit about it, but there are some who still holds dear the idea they can make money fighting piracy.
Been there, done that. You'll learn with time.

There are only two valid complains about Denuvo (and to be fair they're tow big ones):
>A third party software hogging resources from your machine
>A third party software being required for you to access your games so the very moment a publisher tanks the game you paid for is lost forever.
Those two are a legit reason for a paying customer to refuse to buy a Denuvo-protected game

Any other complains come from mad pirates asspained that they can't steal software anymore.
The funniest one is "they wasted money licensing some DRM software!"

And they're still throwing a fit against it, because it's still hurting their sales. It's like you're too retarded to remember SOPA, PIPA, and the hundreds of lawsuits they file every year.
>>
It's not that this is a technical impossibility but a lack of motivation and manpower.

Many more people buy games and the old pirate disc selling market has shrunk dramatically so there's very little monetary and rep incentive for cracking games now.
>>
>>344447168
>A third party software hogging resources from your machine
This has been proven false a hundred times. Denuvo doesn't read/write any data.

>A third party software being required for you to access your games so the very moment a publisher tanks the game you paid for is lost forever.
A very real concern. Since Denuvo only works through Steam you'd hope they signed off on something in the contract that allows Steam to remove the Denuvo activation, but nobody but them knows that.

It's how I started pirating games.

The death of demo-disks did it for me.

I haven't bought a game since Denuvo's bullshit, but that's also because the triple A landscape has been dominated by like 6 fucking franchises.

There ain't' shit for diversity in vidya now a days.

Or it's some Indie Smorgus board.

This. Honestly, it sounds like denuvo is giving these crack teams a percentage of every sale made. And since 3dm stated that they will be taking a hiatus for about a year I think it is safe to say that this contract that denuvo has with the crack teams will last about a year.

And just from personal experience, yes, it does. I loved The Witcher 3, but I never paid for it because I can get it literally for free. I loved the demo of DOOM, and bought it because I couldn't get it for free. I have dozens of pirated blu-rays in my collection I surely would have bought if there were some means to enforce me to.

Antidenuvo isn't family sharing, it's an offline installation. You can't go online with that steam installation, and also can't update the game, but it should work indefinitely as long as you don't go online

3DM is taking a break to stock pile security vulnerabilities

By releasing a crack for each and every game they're basically bugtesting Denuvo's software for them

>release game> 3DM cracks> denuvo fixes crack> better version of denuvo for next game

That's moronic and you should be able to realize why. When 3DM's hiatus ends every Denuvo game will be cracked, and they'll have done it by burning only a single vulnerability

Nothing is uncrackable, the stakes have just gone up

Yeah, but for PC gaming it doesn't matter. Very few pure exclusives other than indies or strategy games/4X games.

Multiplats, while being ported the PC way more than in the past, still just slowly stream out. I like Dark Souls so I knew I'd buy Dark Souls 3. Witcher 3 didn't even have any DRM attached but I bought it because it looked good and I liked the others.

Sure, I might be an exception but there's no need to pirate anymore. So little comes out in the AAA sector. If anything I just see this fucking over Russians or BRs. A global piracy issue. Not a domestic US one.

Not really.
I've only bough three Denuvo-protected games: MGSV, Doom 2016 and Lords of the Fallen.
MGSV ran great (bizarrely it ran better than Ground Zeroes).
Doom ran great, but I had to do some tinkering with the settings.
Lord of the Fallen ran fine, but it had some slowdowns in open areas.

My PC is a FX6300+660ti toaster and still managed to run those games without too much hassle. Meanwhile launch XCOM2, now that was a game that ran like shit.

There's no need to back it up.

The butthurt rumor that Denuvo read/writes data has been proven wrong a hundred times. It's not hard to check this yourself.

It's just pirates justifying not having any disposable income.

Nah, fuck you, anon.
If you do a claim you need to present the evidence to sustain said claim.
"just google it" isn't enough.
>>
If you're going to pirate games, don't even bother with the, "I'll buy it if I like it" bullshit. Most if not all of you don't ever end up buying the games and stick with your free version.

I couldn't give less of a fuck if you pirate it, just don't keep up the paper thin disguise of "muh honoraburr piracy." If you're going to do a dubious act, own it.

It's the same reason I'm voting for Trump.

>>344453574
I don't have to justify piracy. I do it because i can and it's free.
But i have a bunch of games on Steam which i pirated first. Games i can't pirate, i don't buy, because i wouldn't buy in the first place anyway. The innability to play for free, doesn't make me buy it.

Check Evolve for example. Goes f2p, now there's 40 thousand people playing it. There was 170 last week. Same rule applies, those 40 thousand people are playing because it's free and they can, they weren't 40 thousand purchasers. It's a whole different public. Pirates are not people who wanna buy your games, just deal with it.

I figured Denuvo was made by crack-makers in the scene who wanted to play for the other side and make some money.

I'm curious, does Denuvo require online authentication?
>>
>>344454728
Unverified claims that are very easy to test for yourself if you aren't some kind of retard unable to even google for himself.

Here's off the Denuvo homepage, though.
>No. As mentioned before, Denuvo Anti-Tamper does not constantly read or write any data to storage media.

>B-But they're lying!
Nah, it's easy to test, and a lie like this could bankrupt them.

>>344454854
Only once during the game install.

>>344454962
So how come they aren't bankrupt then?

>>344454962

>>344455285
That's a really obvious problem. You'd think Steam would make sure they have some way to remove that or move the servers over in case Denuvo goes under, but nobody knows.

I can't really see why a multi-billion dollar company with a monopoly on an industry would just lock their games away behind a 3rd party with no safety measures.

Most if not all of CD keys are bought legally but in regions where games are cheaper. Sorry buddy you're not fucking anyone over.

But you do save a couple of dollars so that's good!
>>
>>344457564
Why would I support them?
Piracy died for me, that much is true, but because a lot of games nowadays are not even worth pirating.

Let this industry crash, burn, let companies like EA, Activison, Ubisoft, etc die, let the indie market dissappear since it's 99% shovelware, and then maybe we can go back to another golden age.
>>

Exactly.
You're still supporting those "corrupt companies". They're still getting money from you.

>>344457875
>Most if not all of CD keys are bought legally
Not true.
There's no region in the world where, for example, Arkham Knight was $10 at release, which is the price I paid for it.
The less money these companies get, the better.
Much better.

There are undoubtedly people who have bought games that they really wanted to play if they aren't available for free.
>>
>>344458036
>Because you want to play their games?
I may want to play one game every now and then.
Problem is, 99% of the games released nowadays are garbage, so it's not worth supporting this industry.
There's many games I haven't played, I could do fine playing those while the industry dies and is reborn for a decade.
Seeing EA, BioWare, Ubisoft, Naughty Dog and all these pretentious talentless hacks in the indie market out of gaming would be worth it.

Maybe they were selling at a loss for a promotion what do I know. The idea that somewhat serious companies who sponsor esports tournaments and "pro gamers" have access to seemingly unlimited amounts of stolen key and no one can do anything about it is frankly inane. Just think about it for even one second and you'll agree.

>>344458314
Why do you kids always try to politicise fucking video games all the time? I'm pretty sure you don't do it about other stuff.

Want to play a video game? Then buy it. Don't wanna play? Don't buy it. If you unironically think that the business of making video games is significant enough that your "gamer duty" to exercise to maximise your non-existent consumer power then you are fucking deluded.

Luckily you're probably somewhat sane and it's all just excuses to pad over how mad you are over not being able to pirate games anymore.

It's not a rule just because you say it is, and your stance on pirates is purely anecdotal.

>>344437737
Publishers would never produce the evidence (and really, they're the only ones with the evidence) because that means that they would have to have a dialogue about piracy. It's better for them to quietly give pirates the middle finger and let their normal customers not be any the wiser.
