lol, some mod just messed up & deleted something I posted earlier, stating it was affiliate link. I haven't posted any affiliated anything :rolleyes:

i think this was because you quoted the guy who posted an affiliate link, so the quoted link was still his affiliate one.. so they deleted his post and yours since they both contained that link
 
Loads of reasons, but first to mind is how it slows games like RIME. Soon as that was cracked, folks said the games problems vanished.

Assassin's Creed, as if using denuvo wasn't bad enough, they also installed VMProtect: https://youtu.be/zNma_0zKHUA

Aside from that, just look back at what happened when GameSpy shut down its servers. Hundreds or thousands of games relied on GameSpy which no longer worked. Plenty got “patched”, loads still don’t work.

I had two legit copies of ARMAII & all DLC. Once GameSpy died, so did my game, until it got shovelled onto steam clients. Alas, you can only run one version of steam at a time, meaning I lost access to one version of the game.

If (hopefully when…) denuvo does get killed off, this could be the same result & there's no guarantee devs will patch it.

I've seen some, even on here, argue that denuvo does not use any cpu time, which is chucklesome. Nothing uses zero cpu time. Some just go ott when they do.
 
Never had any issues that I have noticed myself with Denovo.

Not to say this is not an issue though. I am a member of this Steam group that keeps tabs on it all and lists effected games:

Handy.

That's good. I'm used to heading to wiki, but never know if someone'll just alter it out of spite ;)

Also shows list of games that had it removed.

Gah, asked humble after EVERSPACE Encounters released if they'd be getting it, as you get a steam & gog key. They said "Stay tuned! :)".
I'm still tuned, but wanting to get my grubby mitts on that DLC! :rolleyes:;)
 
Just came to post this. Seems though mine only says preload? does that mean it isn't unlocked yet? I haven't tried to download the game yet.

Googled 'watchdogs free' which suggests it maybe their servers are playing up.

I already own it on Steam and so have not tried Uplay directly.
