It's absolutely fine to put your pirate hat on when they do this kind of thing.
It's always fine to put your pirate hat on while children go hungry.
Absolutely. It's not like the person can even support the studio, it's blocked in their country.
Denuvo
No DRM exists which can't be circumvented one way or another given enough time.
Only if empress gives a shit or gets enough money. Last time I checked shes the only one crazy enough to attack Denuvo
If you're unhappy about the lack of crackers worth a damn, you could always learn to do it yourself.
let me just get on that real quick 😂 I'm sure that the lack of people engaged in it doesn't mean it's hard or anything.
man if only it was that easy
Nothing in life is easy.
What an idiotic statement.
So you realize how complicated Denuvo is? Only one person in the entire WORLD currently can crack it.
Don't worry, more people are on it than just Empress. You don't have to lash out just because you don't know how to find them. I will save you the trouble of reading my future comments.

... is expensive. And a subscription service.
Which means there's an incentive for studios to remove it as soon as new sales aren't bringing enough money for its cost to be worth it.
That's when you want to pirate (or buy, if you're into that kind of shit) the game. With the added benefit that it's unlikely that the studio will come up with more updates or DLC, and if the game is at all moddable it'll probably have a mature community patch that'll fix everything the studio was unwilling or unable to patch. (Also, I'm not sure how denuvo cracking works, but I doubt it removes all of that shit, so a game with it properly removed will probably run better than a cracked one, even if the cracked one still ran better than the original infected version.)
