Calisto Protocol will have Denuvo

adamsapple

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Almost every notable release on PC has Denuvo these days. It doesn't stop piracy full stop but at least works in the launch weeks I suppose.
 
Yeah, that's a bummer. I try to avoid games with this shit but sometimes I make exceptions and I already made one this week buying RE4. Sorry Calisto, guess I'll wait for a sale.

No cheap keys around and now this is kinda pushing me towards the ps5 version, "only" 65 euros on ebay, cheaper price on pc is the epic store at 60.

Never had a problem with Denuvo, so whatever.

Exactly. I don’t get why is this a problem?

How does that site work?? Never heard of it.

It is not just the lack of keys, the game is probably gonna run better on ps5 than my pc, not sure why i have this hunch...

Usually 40-41 euros are the top price i'm ready to play for something digital, on ps5 i can get it for 65 and then re-sell for at least 20-25 euros if not 30.

No worries, You will buy games when you are older. I know something about it :p

I will probably just get ps5 version then...
Those were times. The shit I downloaded as a kid.
How many times i had to reinstall windows98 because of all the crap I downloaded.

Nowadays im spending way to much money on all those games.
Wouldn't want to have to deal with all that cracking and warez stuff ever again, though.
But it feels great beeing able to afford all of it finally.

I'm 30. I waste a lot of money on games but for the last year or so I've really started resenting full price games. This is the kind of game I actually would support but much less inclined when I know denuvo is invovled.

BUT I HAVE A MASSIVE DISPOSABLE INCOME BRO. COME AT ME. GOT A 3080. ALL THE CONSOLES. BEST TV. BEST HOOKERS. BEST DRUGS. BUT I'LL CRACK A GAME IF THE DEAL SMELLS OFF.

Yeah I remember my win98 Key to, or at least I think I do.

Sometimes it can affect game performance





So yeah, not great.

But I'll play on PS5 anyway


Yeah me, too.
My PC needs an upgrade first and I'm waiting for RDNA3 reveal. See whats what and then probably wait a little longer. No need to rush it.

Some denuvo games remain un cracked so you could potentially waiting for ever.

Denuvo takes months and months to crack. Single player games make most of their sales in the first weeks of release, so like it not, Denuvo works for these developers.

I’ll be getting the PS5 version after launch once I get through God of War and Cyberpunk. My PC is mostly a Trombone Champ, Vampire Survivors, and Dorfromantik machine now.

You can't backup even pc games thanks to denuvo. thanks denuvo.
Oh and thanks for RE village heavy stutters on release Denuvo. Appreciate that... my 3080 surely needed these stutters meanwhile ps5 looked at me "dude, I told you to get re8 for me"

For that kind of price I expect a thank you and a game that allows full "tampering" so I can keep playing in the future without anyone's permission or willingness to remove the crap, add fixes if required... and doesn't have you waiting like idiot when it's calling home. Keep it.
