it’s a bunch of loose files, basically. If you wanted it actively hosted, you’d just need to put them into a web server, basically.

Close as “won’t fix”. Easy. That’s what their customer service does to your ticket, too, if it’s too much to handle, so…

How can this be damaging if you ain’t trying to sell it to us in the first place?

Yeah, no. Just no. Absolutely no. Faster than everything else.and higher than everything else and all of that by burning less energy? Come on people, stop falling for this kind of crap.

Hey, 'Muricans, how come we need to pressure every company into compliance for you?

Denuvo has become a very strong indicator to me that not the game devs are calling the shots during development, but the Excel-sheet-business-suit-monkeys are.

Only some business-fool would look at a proposal to buy that piece of performance-guzzling crap and go “Hey, then everyone who’d be a pirate otherwise will buy my product and spend money in muh cash shop, that’s totally worth the investment”, ignoring the immense drawbacks for paying costumers.

especially in a frickin’ coop-shooter where piracy will never be as big of a deal because people want to play together with others on your frickin’ servers anyway…

Here in Germany, we once had a hardware store called “Praktiker” which advertised their regular 20%-Off-sales with the slogan “20% on everything except pet food” (the joke was that they didn’t sell pet food).

We once needed a very specific type of screw for an old Fender Amp and went to Praktiker when they didn’t have their sale on, so we decided to come back when they resumed the sale again, which they did regularly. When we came back to the store, the screw would have been more expensive than before even with the “20% off” (which was a fucking lie). This opened my eyes to all black-friday-prime-day-whatever-day-sales from then on.
