I am not into games, but there is a lot of drama going on Reddit regarding Denuvo. Some cracker was able to find a way to fool Denuvo, by modifying something called Hypervisor.

Hypervisor - An intermediary layer between the physical hardware and the OS. Hypervisor works at ring -1 level, that is at a even higher privilege than the Kernel.

To put in another words, that Denuvo has no way to figure out that it is being fooled, because the crack is working at way deeper than it can reach. So, all the encryption/decryption, protection is of no use, because the crack is providing the fake fundamental data on which all these things are based, like the Hardware IDs and stuff. It's kind of same thing our beloved R2R has been doing by emulating system DLLs to fake answers to calls made by plugins, but taken to a crazy high level.

 

good! very good.. everything should be free. air is free right? LOL.

 

I hope @Kate Middleton takes over the palace soon and then becomes Prime Minister, because with your slogan and motto, "Everything should be free," you're appealing to 99% of the voting population.

 

Breathable air is free until the rich fucks pollute it to the point that we have to pay for clean air or machines to clean the air. We're getting there.

 

The funniest thing about DRM is that gamers themselves didn't put up with a much lighter version of iLok (the precursor of Denuvo, SecuROM), but people in the audio community bend over to really intrusive DRM that run at all times on your PC, including always-online bullshit...

 

It's complicated. Denuvo deserves a slow and painful death. Not because we need more cracked games. When I download a Denuvo game fully cracked 3 weeks after release, I don't have to deal with it. But because protection that goes that fcking deep into system architecture prevents legit buyers from running a game on Linux.
