Going by that logic, there's simply no way that Denuvo does not hinder performance.
Sounds like a CEO who doesn't have a damn clue how code works. His description sounds like he thinks every line of code takes the same amount of time to execute, as if
x = 1;takes as long as calling an encryption/decryption function."Adding" code to bypass your encryption is obviously going to make things run way faster.
That's also a lie. There is no way it would be impossible to remove the protection code (or parts of it) or make it not execute. That alone makes him a clown.
Not to mention that some of the cracks are incredibly lightweight in the first place so even disabling a small amount of their code would improve things. Removing the encryption mechanisms alone works wonders.
