Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.
Now that it’s much harder to crack they’ll sell more. So many thiefs out there with plenty of money to burn who choose not to because they can get away with it.
Are the thieves with plenty of money to burn in the room with you, right now? Can you point them out? Where did they hurt you? Was it actually EA or Ubisoft but you’re scared to let us know? Was it Paradox’s DLC scheme, or Total War? Are they the ones who really hurt you? It’s ok. You’re in a safe space. The AI generated loot skins can’t hurt you, here.
The rumour going around, back then, was that Denuvo went under the table and paid crackers who had the ability to break their DRM to like – Stop doing that. And that this was the reason EMPRESS (actually insane woman) was the only person left who could crack it.
I think it is mostly due to it being difficult to hack and those with the skill are well employed and don’t want to risk legal action or spend the time to crack games.
There are no groups currently cracking Denuvo.
In that case, request a refund and just forget about the game. It’s that little bit worse for the publisher who chose Denuvo.
Doubt it.

Is anything worth cracking? GTA 6 will be. But what has come out recently is worth the effort?
Yea I would think anyone who has a workaround is keeping it quiet, otherwise it’ll get fixed before then. Then it would be harder to break it for gta.
There are several individuals though. Fitgirl and Empress come to mind.
Doesn’t fitgirl just repack stuff (compressing the game for smaller download sizes) rather than doing the actual cracking?
Oh I get it, fitgirl will Make It FIT! Huh.
That’s a repacker, not a cracker.
Cracker? I barely know her?
ahh heard
I think Empress is too busy ranting about trans people to crack games anymore
And men in general.
Empress has not cracked anything for a long time and Fitgirl has never cracked anything
Is it because companies tend to strip denuvo from the games after some months?
The rumour going around, back then, was that Denuvo went under the table and paid crackers who had the ability to break their DRM to like – Stop doing that. And that this was the reason EMPRESS (actually insane woman) was the only person left who could crack it.
Of course, there is no way to prove that.

Yeah, didn’t Denuvo themselves hire a few of the former crackers?
