I don't believe that even without DRM the game would've been pirated that much... i mean people usually pirate games they actually want to play lmao.
But let's see how long it takes the industry to realize that games like bg3 and palworlds, that don't have any DRM, are still money making machines.... hmmm
Never underestimate how much people want to see a trainwreck up close. Of course, pirating is free, I doubt many people want to pay money for a trainwreck, so not sure if Denuvo is really going to save them from losing actual sales
Seriously "#1 sold game on steam in 2024" ah yes, because that's a good metric when it's been only one month and the biggest titles have a tendency to drop in December
Maybe, but when people talk about "cracking" a video game, they mean removing the telemetry parts of the .exe that might phone home and tattle on you. So often a cracked version of a game will have most online features removed. If it's a game with a single-player campaign, it might still be totally playable.
This seems like EXACTLY the type of game I would pirate, if I was still a teenager pirating games. Something without online play (or with online play that I don't care about) that looks kinda dumb but maybe it could be funny, and I don't feel like it's worth full price. So I would just pirate it, play it halfway through, get bored, and delete it.
I'm too old for that shit now, I don't want viruses on my PC because I store things on there that are actually IMPORTANT, instead of just porn and video games. But back then, I'd risk a virus for this mediocre-looking Suicide Squad game.
We're now at the "I dunno how much more worse we can make it but let's keep adding more shit and find out" phase of the failure of the Suicide Squad game.
I watched a trailer and gameplay and some interviews for the first time yesterday and it's such a bummer vecause some of the ideas that they have are really interesting, and i think the game could have some potential, if you are into the kind of looter shooter thing. But i have very little hope for the game. Little to no
