That's one way to get people to turn to piracy.

Most denuvo games don't get cracked.

[–] kbal@fedia.io 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That was true for a little while around 2016 I think. If it's temporarily true again now I don't expect it'll last very far into the lifetime of a civ game.

Maybe, maybe not. HiFi Rush hasn't been cracked, even after Microsoft became theevillain of the week for the whole internet, because they closed down Tango Gameworks.

Empress was the only denuvo cracker, and she's gone.

[–] Cavemanfreak@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She's actually not gone. She's just picky with what games she cracks.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah man, she's gone. She hasn't cracked anything in over a year, and the "one game" she'd be interested in cracking she won't crack?

Until she actually releases a new crack, I'm not going to believe that post was even actually from her. Either that or it is her and she's unable to crack the newest denuvo and is blustering to keep her cults attention.

Is that really true? I guess I’m not up to date enough, but I think most modern games make their way to the modern seas.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 4 points 2 months ago

It's true. There was only one person willing and capable of cracking denuvo, and they've been a total ghost for a year now. Possibly a literal ghost now, considering they're Russian.
