HAHA! Is this how CPY managed to crack the other Denuvo games? XD.

That message reminds me of some silly beggars\scammers here XD

Syberia3, the latest denuvo plagued game, has already had it removed because it got cracked within three days.

Oh, & for those that are adamant that denuvo does not impact games in any way...

"What’s slightly worrying for Denuvo is that the cracked version of Syberia 3 reportedly booted up 40 seconds faster than the protected version."

DRM will always impact performance negatively. It can't be any other way.

Denuvo crap has been removed from Hitman, courtesy of IO.
Still has some online crap, but it's an improvement.

There were framerate improvements reported in rime when denuvo was removed too
I hope Eidos Montral pulls Deus Ex away from Square in similar fashion.

One can only hope. Since Mankind Divided sales were not on par with SquareEnix's expectations, there's at least a chance...

I'm sure these games will work fine.

Now for Mass Effect and Dragon Age. I have no clue if they try to connect to online when launched, but I think it might be the case for the newest titles. So you should be fine with the older titles.

It's a case by case scenario really. Old post I found about it.

I constantly check that list to see whether I could put any on my wishlist. Currently, the titles are few and far between but there are still some that I like, for example, Crazy Taxi and Styx. Those are currently on sale on Steam and only use Steam to download but can be played just fine without Steam. Also, there are games being added to that list and the GOG community is actively testing them, including me but my GOG library is much bigger than my Steam library.

I don't know if Origin itself needs a Internet-connection If it doesn't it depends on the additional DRM.
DA:I uses the oldest Denuvo version which doesn't require regular Online-authenfications.
ME:A uses a newer Denuvo version which requires Online-Authenfication periodically (I don't know how often though, it is different for every Denuvo game. it varies between 1-2 days and 2-3 weeks not including Hardware changes, game crashes and similar issues which can cause needing a new Authenfication).

The need for reauthenfication in ME1 was removed by the last patch, so it works without any online connection (again I have no idea if origin adds the need for that, my Disc-version works just fine on my completely offline Laptop)
DAO is here on GOG so no problem.

Concerning ME2, ME3 and DA2 I have no idea since I played them on console.

Thanks to people like BALDMAN and STEAMPUNKS; Denuvo is nothing but dust in all of its versions.

So much for impenetrable.

Another denuvo plagued game bites the dust.


Bioware has removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Mass Effect: Andromeda

A few days ago, we informed you about a new patch for Mass Effect: Andromeda. However, and even though it was not included in its release notes, it appears that this patch has completely removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.

We don’t know whether this was intentional or not. After all, we’ve seen developers rolling out patches without the inclusion of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech and then re-applying it via a new update.

But anyway, right now, the 1.9 version of Mass Effect: Andromeda is not powered by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech (though the game is still protected by ORIGIN).

Mass Effect: Andromeda joins a number of games for which the developers/publishers have removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech once their games got cracked. These include DOOM, HITMAN, RiME and Homefront: The Revolution.

Hope Warhammer devs enjoyed wasting their money paying for denuvo plague... ;)

Apparently it was cracked & released within ten hours :D

Total War: WARHAMMER 2 has just been released on the PC and even though Creative Assembly’s new strategy game is powered by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech, it has been cracked in just a day. As such, this is the fastest Denuvo-powered game that has been cracked, and shows that there is really no point using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech anymore.

"Prior to it, TEKKEN 7 was the fastest cracked game powered by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech as it was cracked in just four days, followed by RiME and Resident Evil 7 that were cracked in five days.

In RiME’s case, Tequila Works removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech once the game was cracked. Similarly, id Software, IO Interactive and BioWare removed Denuvo from DOOM, Hitman, ADR1FT and Mass Effect: Andromeda.

It will be interesting to see how SEGA and Creative Assembly will react to this, and whether they will remove the Denuvo anti-tamper tech in order to boost the game’s sales. For what it’s worth, and while Sonic Mania has been cracked, SEGA has not removed Denuvo from it. Not only that, but Sonic Forces will be also using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech."

Mass Effect: Andromeda. Now there's a game that isn't even worth pirating.
