I wonder if the cost of licencing Denuvo outweighs the shrink from piracy...

I’m like 60% sure piracy management is more meant to appease shareholders than to actually break even on Denuvo licensing.

Add in the cost of interested people who move on when they see "Uses Denuvo DRM" or whatever it says on the steam page.

I've got some games on my wishlist just to check back every now and then to see if they've removed it yet.
