The first game sold millions without any drm. Naturally, they had to add denuvo for the second game.

Their publisher was bought by Embracer shortly after the release of Kingdom Come Deliverance, maybe they're to blame here.

Fucking Embracer. They're a cancer on the industry

Unless they push back from within, they will still suffer the backlash from not trusting the fan base.

Because it seems that whatever statistics Denuvo is peddling show that more sales are secured, even if it's cracked in the first few weeks.

Idk how true that is, obviously, just outlining why they're buying into it.

Doesn't need to be true, just convincing to some suits
