MODERATORS
Capcom is so odd. They put out old Dino Crises games on Steam recently with their Enigma DRM.
At the same time, it's also being sold on GOG without DRM...??? What. Not that it hasn't been easy to emulate for decades. Wtf are they doing?
You're talking about a company run by executives that, when asked for permission to re-sell their old catalog, told GOG staff:
"Okay, but we have all of those remakes. It’s already the superior experience to those games."

Anyone that pays for a game infected with Denuvo malware is part of the problem.
I don’t mind buying something like that on a dedicated gaming machine, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch. I would not buy that for my computer

This game is so fun. Like holy crap, I haven’t found a game this fun in a while. I never knew I needed puzzle mini games while shooting things, but I guess here we are!
The fanfare is interesting to me, because I played the demo and found the exact opposite from my experience! The mini games in the middle of it all was too many subsystems for me to find enjoyable. But that's clearly the minority opinion based on the sales and reviews.
I never knew I needed puzzle mini games while shooting things, but I guess here we are!
This is a formula as old as 3D gaming.
I can't think of a single game that has a mini puzzle while shooting. Plenty of games with those at independent times.
I can't think of a single well-known game that has something similar.

For some reason, I thought this already came out years ago to little fanfare; I seem to recall a demo or trailer for it from way back ...
Ah, development hell and indefinite delays from Capcom. Looks like it's being recieved well, too.
Ye same, it was a very special and captivating reveal trailer too. That said, these days things are revealed before development even starts soooo
Ye, it can take 6 years between reveal and release

Piefed.social has 29 comments under this thread, 21 of those comments are about Denuvo with over half of them being a variation of the "Denuvo bad". I get it, I don't like Denuvo either, but do we really need a "This game has Denuvo so I'm not going to buy it" comment whenever a game with Denuvo is in the news. At this point it's become another circlejerk. I thought we're here because we love gaming but it feels like some people are just looking for an excuse to complain.
I can already see this not being well received (considering how popular hating on Denuvo is) so I'm going to save everyone some trouble. I don't care about your need to defend your circlejerk in front of me. I know where I stand on Denuvo and to me that topic is a dead horse, I'm not going to beat it so I'm not going to respond. I might respond if the comment is about how it impacts the community here, but my stance on that is very simple. We're intelligent people here, we know how to check whether a game has Denuvo or not, lettings others to the game has Denuvo is not some PSA and calling people the problem for buying a game with Denuvo hurts the community more than it helps.
do we really need a "This game has Denuvo so I'm not going to buy it" comment whenever a game with Denuvo is in the news
Yes. As with all social injustice and corruption, we are ethically obligated to draw attention to it every time. Allowing corporate theft against consumers to be quietly accepted because you are more annoyed by the backlash than the theft makes you an accomplice.
Don’t be an accomplice.

I played the demo to see what it is about, although shooter games are not my thing, and I liked it. But damn Denuvo.
I will wait for them to remove it, game is already cracked though.
