Wonder what Denuvo is going to do about this

Fitgirl's statement:


Yes, I know PRAGMATA release files have been leaked. Yes, I know that PRAGMATA was Hypervisor-bypassed. No, I won’t put my repack before an official release date and time. I don’t support leaks and I don’t like when people do something for hype only. Legit users, who paid for their game deserve to play it first. Not the pirates. It doesn’t matter how much you hate Denuvo or Capcom, those games are there because people buy something from developers and publishers. And when those who don’t pay get an Advanced Access while legit customers suck their fingers is just plain wrong.

Of course, not every releaser share my principles and you’ll see releases popping here and there, but I’ll keep my stance. Leaks are bad. Don’t do leaks. Don’t use leaks. You’ve waited for years, you can wait a few hours more.

I'm pretty sure that the CEO salary alone can cover any money loss that a leak like this can cause... Laying off devs because of something like this is unjustified.

Never said that wasn't the case. And as I mentioned in another comment - I don't think there's much damage from leaks like this, because you have to REALLY want to play it if you're willing to go through with the hypervisor bypass. I was arguing against a general statement of "who cares, they've already been paid, just pirate it". The leaks themselves are just kinda bad taste tbh?
