That would certainly make me request a refund and just pirate the game.
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.
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
Empress has not cracked anything for a long time and Fitgirl has never cracked anything
I think Empress is too busy ranting about trans people to crack games anymore
And men in general.
Is anything worth cracking? GTA 6 will be. But what has come out recently is worth the effort?
Is it because companies tend to strip denuvo from the games after some months?
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.
Yeah, didn't Denuvo themselves hire a few of the former crackers?
Heads up, Steam has stopped refunding even broken games if it passes the two hour mark (even if it's from sitting there on your system process locked).
Illegal where I live, probably why they give me warnings about that but always end up approving the refund
