As far as I know, to remove Denuvo the game has to be compiled from the source code.

came in here looking for this info as well. this has gotta be the first Denuvo game to later be completely DRM free right?

I would like to know why GOG has published the game that is protected with Denuvo Anti-Tamper.? Surely had to publish the game already cracked by a group called CPY months ago.

The developer published the game here. GOG obviously doesn't allow using Denuvo and as I said, Denuvo is relatively easy to remove.

And in case someone is wondering :

On Steam

"INSIDE patch notes 2016/11/23
23 NOVEMBRE - GARMONBOZIA
-Removed Denuvo Anti-Tamper
-Minor fixes"

Yes, Denuvo have been cracked for some games (including INSIDE):

http://www.dsogaming.com/news/just-cause-3-rise-of-the-tomb-raider-inside-have-been-crackedbypassed/

No reason to keep the protection

Seriously, what kind of question is that? Why would GOG publish a game with Denuvo? And cracks? GOG gets their copies directly from the developers/publishers. What makes you think Denuvo is somehow an essential part of a game's final build?

hey, are you SURE it was the unprotected build ? do you have any way to check ? any contract warranty for that ?

listen here it is serious !

DENUVO is dangerous shit ! no, really, this is the worst security threat i have ever seen...

Even if it is "desactivated", it still is "there" and is still a threat because of the kind of software elements it leaves behind and deals with...

To make it short: Denuvo is a potentiel open door to infection by cryptolocker virus !

Especially as it had been cracked* on "some" games, even if each specific game requires a separate crack, the core of denuvo cryptographic mechanics and its links/interaction with windows's cryptographic elements is a MAJOR RISK.

So please GOG, confirm me that this insane shit is in NO WAY inside the product you released on your catalog !
Because afaic, if it is not that way, i ask for an immediate refund and afaic, i' consider GOG responsible of any future infection of that kind...

PS: oooh and also, your SSD will LOVE denuvo as it slowly KILLS its read/write storage cells... Hail Denuvo, the triumphant return of DRM that DAMAGE/DESTROY hardware parts (YOUR hardware)... Sorry but killing a good hardware part AND risking a nasty infection just to play games is a complete NO for me...
