I've found if the game is a port from consoles, or by a publisher that regularly does console ports, it has a very high probability of having denuvo. So that's one reason I stay away from those - if I'm going to play them I'll get them on the console where I don't give quite as much a shit about it.
Then again, I don't really buy console ports on steam in general anymore since the few ones I've bought in the past, which claim at least to have no 3rd party drm on it beyond the steam shit itself... I tend to have a poor chance of playing them on my pcs. In other words I have about 50% chance at best of getting it to start up without almost immediately shutting off. And for a good portion of the ones that do start up, the frame rate sucks ass.
It's why most of the games I'll buy on PC tend to be games that are fairly simple in nature.
