I'm really really surprised nobody else has hunkered down to learn how to crack Denuvo just to give this toxic shit the middle-finger. I mean, piracy groups are full of autistic weapons, and nobody has taken up the challenge?

I think it’s more likely that there are others who don’t publicly share their cracks because they doesn’t want legal trouble/attention.

[-] liminal@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

I don't buy this. It's easy to upload files anonymously.

[-] nave@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah but why take that risk? They don’t really gain anything.

[-] liminal@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

They can't gain recognition, uploading anonymously. But if someone purely wants the crack for the game to exist they could do it

[-] nave@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

Once again, why would they share their cracks if its for personal use?

[-] liminal@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Do people create mods for games or create open source software solely for recognition?

[-] nave@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Mods and open source software are not illegal.

You're missing the point I've made completely.

[-] nave@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

My point is that a contributor to open source software can contribute just to help people because they don’t have to worry about legal repercussions.

[-] liminal@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Being anonymous isn't incompatible with helping people

[-] nave@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

The point I’m trying to make is some people don’t want risk getting raided by the fbi just to give people free games

Cracking Denuvo requires being there from the start, since with every new release new obstacles are added. If you try to crack denuvo now you’ll be completely lost, and getting copies of old Denuvo doesn’t seem this easy I guess. Empress had been there since Denuvo v1 so 🤷‍♂️
