I certainly hope Denuvo steps on something pointy, but there's no way I'm installing an HV bypass on any machine.

The HV bypass is a blow to both the industry and piracy. All games are easy to pirate now, but aint no way I'm messing with my machine so much just to pirate those games.
Been out of the loop lately, how much time does it takes them on average to crack a new released denial game?
Ain't no way I'm paying full price for less updates and a rootkit. It's always better to wait on these games.
Playing a game for free is not even remotely worth allowing a crack to have absolute root access, but maybe this will make companies reconsider whether it's worth paying for Denuvo. Probably not.
I played RE9 recently thanks to voices38 crack.
Even the achievements were working, insane experience for something pirated.
It's not the same convenience of Steam, but you can achieve similar:
- I used a PowerShell script with rclone + Ludosavi backup to backup all my game saves periodically.
- Add to Steam as non-Steam game to get controller support, screenshot and recording features.
- And Hydra launcher (or Achievement Watcher) to save my played hours and get achievements notifications.
Pro: You actually own your data instead of Steam owing it. All tools are open source and you can backup the database files.
Cons: Less convenience.
Already 100% all achievements.
These bypasses work differently and require you to load unsigned drivers.
Ik, but RE9 was one of the few games cracked properly. That and Black Myth Wukong today.
Given the rate voices38 is doing it, I dare to say he's cracking all the rest, he probably figured out something at this point, just need to reapply the same skills on different Denuvo games.
So the Empress has fallen?
The bypass probably allows more extensive dynamic analyses to be run on the running process. Crack development was seriously hindered by Denuvo's limit of five activations per day.
Thanks, I didn't know black myth was cracked today. I certainly hope you're right since these hypervisor bypasses seem to be soaking up all of the attention instead of proper cracks.
It was cracked today, I just can't share it here I guess. The rest are still HyperVisor unfortunately.
The voices38 crack is not a hypervisor bypass though.
Yes, that is why I said that these bypasses work differently 😅
Huh. I guess they'll play the games now?
Are any of them worth playing?
I played the demo for Pragmata. It seems like a good 3rd person capcom shooter.
Bout time.
