I like to use Denuvo as an indicator of a bad release. For someone with over 3k hours on PAYDAY 2, I just cancelled my preorder.
Thank you for the fun times OVERKILL, sad to see you go this way.
I don't know a lot about Denuvo, is it a bad thing? Why did you cancel your pre order based on that?
There have been instances where it worsens performance. My computer is mid tier-ish at this point (3070, i7 10700k) and I haven't noticed any poor performance from games running Denuvo (latest I tried Dead Island 2). It's likely worse performance loss on older systems, but those older systems probably can't run new AAA games well as it is.
I think most people don't like the fact that it takes a while to crack games running Denuvo, so they're not able to be pirated for that time.
