Life is Strange: Before the Storm will use Denuvo.

Hi everyone!

Tomorrow is the big day for us as Episode One: Awake of Life is Strange: Before the Storm releases! The game will unlock in your Steam library at 12:01 EDT / 9:01 PDT / 17:01 BST August 31st. (More Local times here[www.timeanddate.com])

Additionally, in order to provide you with all the facts upfront before the launch, we wanted to make you aware in advance that we have just published our EULA for Steam and that Before the Storm will include Denuvo.

We would like to assure you that we have done extensive testing with the software and that its implementation with Before the Storm has no impact on PC resources. You should therefore not see any performance related issues as a result of Denuvo.

Additionally, Denuvo will not require an “always-on” connection. You will be able to enjoy Life is Strange: Before the Storm offline.

See you tomorrow!

The Life is Strange team

let me remind you here that simian.interface++ is very neat little game, that is clever and fun, and short, I recommend to play it, not just buy

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Chloe strikes me as the kind of person who pirate the game with or without Denuvo.

Life is Strange: Before the Storm will use Denuvo.

so i guess nobody will play life is strange bts now right?

 

[Anteater]

Denuvo doesn't really bother me, as long as the DRM isn't that intrusive, and as long as they remove it after a while

also was there a 25% off coupon for LiS on GMG a while ago?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Wait so why the blue hell does Sonic need always online?

 

[Zeneric]

October is gonna be an amazing and busy month for me (Oct is my birthday month too!). The Evil Within 2, Wolf 2, and Destiny 2. Fuck yes. Probably will be the best month of the year for gaming for me.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Dinosaurs have more in common with present-day birds than they do with reptiles.
Look at the pubic bone, turned backward, like a bird's.
Look at the vertebrae, full of air sacs and hollows, just like a bird's.
And even the word 'raptor' means 'bird of prey'.

so who's the fat kid we scare off

 

[prudislav]

Wait so why the blue hell does Sonic need always online?

it should be offline-able by now after patch

 

[KainXVIII]

Yeah, like nobody plays Sonic Mania /s

The game wasn't developed by Rockstar.

oh that's true

guess team bondi is just as bad as r* then

 

[Anteater]

one thing cool about LiS is that you get to talk about it with the community each episode, i'm tempted to get it

 

[Ascheroth]

Wow 0_0



Yeah, that's pretty much it! I know Falcom games are awesome, so I bought a few over the years. However, only recently I got in the mood to play them. I'm about to finish Trails FC and I'm loving it, so I'll probably go through Ys Origin next.

I think after FC you'll want to play SC immediately, lol.

 

[Lain]

That new bundlestars bundle was great, I had nothing in it and with the new website redemption, what a game changer! (because redeeming games is the game I play)

 

[ramoisdead]

Ys Seven is now live on Steam.

Wondering how the end results of the port are since neither Durante or Sara worked on it.

 

[Xater]

Wow that's impressive. I didn't think it'd hit big since it seemed pretty quiet here.

I would have picked it up if it wsn't for the XCOM2 expansion...

 

[JarrodL]

Denuvo doesn't really bother me, as long as the DRM isn't that intrusive, and as long as they remove it after a while

Doesn't that cut the list of cases when it doesn't bother you to like 5-6 games though?

 

[Orakio Rob]

I think after FC you'll want to play SC immediately, lol.

People keep telling me this I'll probably play Origin AND Trails SC.

And now it is mine. This one is getting played.

Not sure if intended but just bought it for 16,86€ on Humble. (22,49€ on Steam}

People keep telling me this I'll probably play Origin AND Trails SC.

Origin is awesome, too. There is no wrong choice, really

 

[ArjanN]

Disgusting.

DISGUSTING!!

I need to rewatch the trilogy to cleanse my eyes and memory from that travesty.

To be fair the movies take plenty of liberties already.

 

[Anteater]

Doesn't that cut the list of cases when it doesn't bother you to like 5-6 games though?

it doesn't bother me as long as I don't notice it tbh, removing it at some point just makes me feel better for "future proofing"

 

[Tonton]

Ys SEVEN is up on GOG and they have a sale on the rest of the series

Not seeing a similar sale on Steam

[SunDimension24]

Never expected to get an announcement of the fifth episode of Kentucky route zero from a nintendo indie showcase.

 

[kevin1025]

Fuck this Mordor game

Oh, no...

That's not good at all.

Plus with how hard the first game dropped in price, it's a wait and buy game anyway.

 

[soundtest]

Any actual release date, or just "Yup, we're working on Ep V"?

 

[GoldandBlue]

so i guess nobody will play life is strange bts now right?

I actually had no interest in buying this before the news. A prequel to LiS just doesn't seem all that interesting.

 

[zkylon]

one thing cool about LiS is that you get to talk about it with the community each episode, i'm tempted to get it

oh is chloe one episodic too?

 

[SunDimension24]

Any actual release date, or just "Yup, we're working on Ep V"?

2018 with the release of KENTUCKY ROUTE ZERO: TV EDITION on switch.

The process is also much faster than in the client

 

[Anteater]

[Wok]

Cute.

 

[Tizoc]

^steam page at last!
Thanks wok

No more heroes 3 is on ue4
Interesting...

 

[Zeneric]

Dunno why the kids care bout my gaming world. I already admitted I suck at video games. And they still harass me. There is something else. Oh, well, kids gonna be kids.

 

[Lain]

Lain i dont know if u heard

Ys7 isn't gonna be in it!

Btw, you all already knew but the key redeeming on the webpage emails you for every key you redeem. I found 23 emails waiting for me.

 

[Father_Brain]

Cute.

this looks soooo cute, even if Tunic might have it beat in that regard

Also, though this has already had a Steam page for a bit, it was featured in the Nindies spotlight and looks pretty promising

 

[Rockin' Ranger]

2018 with the release of KENTUCKY ROUTE ZERO: TV EDITION on switch.

Less of an announce of a release date for Episode V and more saying it won't take more than two and a half years.

 

[Tizoc]

Btw, you all already knew but the key redeeming on the webpage emails you for every key you redeem. I found 23 emails waiting for me.
