Taxman and Aaron Webber are encouraging people to go to this link to request Denuvo's removal from Sonic Mania:

So if you're gonna bother just complaining out into the ether on /v/, you might as well do so somewhere where it actually matters.

Seriously, if i was a corp, and THIS was enough to stump the average steam user, id be fucking the player base so hard. What are they gonna do? Accept it. Thats what.

>>388656519
Not saying you should buy a switch or anything, but handhelds are the ultimate in comfy. I'm so glad they released Mania on it. Hope the denuvo situation resolves on pc, because always-online drm is truly awful.

>>388661501

What's worse is that Denuvo can fuck up performance, if RIME is anything to go by.

I don't really care if people pirate games, but just curious, is Denuvo bad for people who don't pirate? I mostly play on consoles, though I do play on PC from time to time, I haven't played any games that have used it yet. Does it like fuck up your games performance or something? Or is it just people bitching that they can't pirate?

except if you start the game online, which you absolutely can since you downloaded it, you can then close the game, go offline, and continue to play the game offline as much as you want. But i wouldn't expect a shitposter to know what he's talking about anyway

>more ressources uses

>>388664229
Some have said that Denuvo only checks periodically to see if you have access to the internet, so it CAN actually be used online. Sonic Mania alrready has a mod made for it, so the whole "can't mod with Denuvo" meme has been thrown out the Window as well.

Now it's basically just butthurt piratefags. I was goingt o pirate it too because of the delay pushing me to buy it on Xbone, but I'm not a crybaby and will wait.

>>388664229
It's slightly taxing on performance depending on your PC, and always runs in the background. It's just a nuisance that doesn't fucking matter anyways because people are going to crack the game regardless, so all it does is hurt the people who bought it.

>>388664289
Doesn't work, Captain Slowpoke

>>388664371
>Sonic Mania already has a mod for it
what?

It also fucks up with TW WH and DOOM loading times, I have both in my steam library and the cracked versions are so much faster on startup.
No change in FPS though, but the games themselves boot in 10 seconds vs the full minute of Denuvo.

It damages SSDs, hurts performance (not in the case of a game like Sonic Mania unless you're REALLY playing this thing on a toaster because it is so undemanding) and generally causes issues.
But honestly a lot of it for me is out of all the DRM services available something about picking Denuvo feels especially disrespectful to the consumer
>We went out of our way to pay like 100,000 dollars for this fucking DRM service that causes issues for us and the consumer because they claim it's uncrackable despite a cursory google or basic knowledge of Denuvo revealing the exact opposite
>Pirates will be regularly be the only ones to be able to experience the game without issue
If there were no issues with Denuvo there'd be zero cases of devs removing Denuvo once the game gets cracked but that's happened a number of times.

Depending on how many "triggers" the game devs set up on the game protection it may take much more to launch the game or to load a savefile compared to a pirated version.
It also makes it so you can alter the .exe in no way, so if the game doesn't have mod tools integrated you're limited with what you can do, you can also experience bans for using cheat engine in a SP game which is a travesty.

For example current Bethesda published games like DOOM or Wolfenstein use it because they don't rely on user mods, but Fallout 4 couldn't use it because Denuvo would fuck up the script extender all the intricate mods in Skyrim/Fallout use.

The Just Cause 3 multiplayer mod had to be made with the modders in touch with the main devs in order to work around Denuvo which was fucking up the progresses.
And it still gets cracked eventually, so in the end the only ones getting a dick in their arse are paying customers.

Just finished the game, 3 emeralds left. How common are the special rings? Feel like the only ones I ever found them in were the new stages and hydrocity.

I got the CE and I was pissy about it since I thought mods weren't going to be a thing due to it, thank god I was wrong & they do work. It is pretty dumb you have to be online at all times though.

By the way, what happens if I go offline in the middle of the game by the way? I never had any game with Denuvo so I don't really know how it works actually.

There wouldn't need to be Denuvo if PC gamers didn't just pirate everything. Not having Denuvo in a game is like opening the door to let a wild wolf into your house to eat you.

No smart or sane individual would let a wolf into his house. No smart or sane person would be against Denuvo.

Except Taxman said, and common sense would tell you, that it's the company's decision to have DRM in their games. The developers are ultimately under the will of their director and the company funding their game since the company could easily pull the plug on funding or cancel their game altogether.

I'm getting Mania to support Taxman still, and because Sega making decent games from time to time still makes me support them even with a mistake like this.

I never realized how Useless PC fags are in the scope of gaming, putting together the wrost aspect of Nintendo Microsoft and Sony fags and instead of placing some small aspect of their respect in a company, they do it in their 2000 dollar computer. They want every game to be fucking perfect, and if one thing is wrong with it thats enough justification to just pirate it.

What makes me fucking SICK is that i once called myself a PC fag, and was proud of it

>>388676439

They made a post claiming they totally didn't know about the "issue" and implied it was the fault of the Mania team, pissing off Stealth in the process.

Splatoon 2 is one of the best games of the year and I'm sure you were trying to think of BotW.

>brags about this

Switch version is still superior, it's portable and doesn't require online.

>Denuvo is here to stay since people are having such a hard time cracking it.
It hasn't even been 24 hours

>if steam decided to charge for online
Consolefags are braindead and have no idea how Valve makes money or the history of paid online attempts on PC.

I'm really starting to regret having bought the Switch version

Stealth must realize that people don't give a shit whose fault it was. They want their game to work and not be filled with DRM bullshit.

>bought the game when delay was announced
>didn't get gift
>now I can actually refund
If a crack comes out before sega actually addresses the issue, yeah, I'm refunding this. I guess my naivety and giving Sega the benefit of the doubt and thinking they were actually doing bugfixes and not adding invasive DRM paid off.

Whenever you're feeling down, just remember you will never be as pathetic as the people who refund games and leave them bad reviews regardless of how good they are because they cant play them offline on their desktop PC in current year

>>388678284

>>388678284

Well I guess I am pathetic for saving money.
