    For me it’s simple: Denuvo makes game hard to play on GNU/Linux so Denuvo makes it hard for me to play games I pay for… So no, 0 benefit from this shit…

    I think them trying to win gamers over is just going to Streisand effect the hatred instead. I don’t want 3rd party anything that I don’t elect to install, even if it doesn’t effect the performance( which I also don’t buy).

    I for one do appreciate Denuvo. They help me blacklist anti-consumer publishers and developers.

    Pirates hate Denuvo because it works.

    The majority of gamers either don’t care or don’t even know it exists.
