This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Bro, I've got like 25 hours in the Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster, on my Steam Deck and laptop.

Yesterday, an update caused the game to launch with a black screen. So I tried a few different Proton versions, before I start getting a new error.

I take a look at the discussion board for the game on Steam... Fucking Denuvo considers each version of Proton to be a separate "activation" and it will only allow five BEFORE LOCKING YOU OUT OF THE GAME FOR 24 HOURS.

I have never really given a shit about Denuvo before, but this is so fucking infuriating. I paid for this game. I've already played 25 hours of this game. Now I can't fucking play it?

Unbelievable. Denuvo is fucking trash, and I guess now I'm one of those people who avoids it.

Happened with the new DOOM too. I just wait for AAA games to remove DRM as a precaution.

Thanks for the heads up, was going to get that for my wife to try. I'll just spin up the ISO instead.

The game itself is outstanding (but I may be biased since the original is one of my favorite games of all time)

I agree. Said ISO is an image of the PS1 disc which is safely in its case :D.
