There’s so many games I haven’t bought simply because they used/ implemented Denuvo. I see Denuvo and it’s an instant lost sale/nonbuy.

Worse. Paradoxically, it encourages piracy.

If it has Denuvo it’s basically asking “please, get a pirated version if you want this, because the official version sucks”.

Yup, I was going to grab Like a Dragon last week but saw Denuvo on the sidebar & quickly changed my mind.

Denuvo is at least understandable when it’s added to a game on launch to curb pirates for that crucial moment. But like a dragon has been cracked for over two years now, it has no business still having Denuvo.
