    In the case of Denuvo, it is proven to drastically decrease performance for the sake of “security.”

    Examples:
    Hogwarts Legacy Denuvo vs Crack

    Resident Evil 8 Village Denuvo vs Crack

        I’m just over here laughing because you’re asking why DRM is bad in a piracy community. That’s good popcorn right there.

        Laugh it off

        Fortunately, karma means nothing here, unlike on the other site. I’d say it’s nothing to worry about

        It’s sad you got downvoted into oblivion for asking a simple (and important) question, but then again, like the other guy said it really doesn’t matter here lol.
